I’d imagine a dinner fit for a queen to be flashy, eccentric, and above all, delicious. But seeing as I’m a mere commoner, I’ll never truly know. Queens Feast: Charlotte Restaurant Week is the closest I’ll come. In this culinary extravaganza — happening July 16-25 — 88 upscale restaurants in Charlotte and the surrounding area offer prix fixe, three-course (or more) dinners for $30 per person (not including tax and gratuity). Since this is a savings from what a meal like this would usually cost, you don’t have to worry about getting Prince Charming to spring for the date.
