And they lived happily ever after...

It's VERY hard to believe that we have finished our adventure... 40 restaurants under our belt, and we have tasted some pretty darn good food. I was reading somewhere online the other day that said that Kingston has over 100 restaurants in a 9-block radius. That's pretty unreal considering the number of people who have asked us along our adventure if there are even 40 restaurants in this lovely city of ours. Whether you're from Kingston, the surrounding area, or just passing through; you are bound to find something you'd enjoy. Classy, cosy, low-key, up-scale, pubs, ethnic, courtyards and patios, snack, drink, eat. In my opinion, Kingston has it all.

As for me and my fellow adventurers, ultimately, our weekly dinners will continue... I just won't write weekly. Perhaps I'll keep the blog "alive" just in case we have an experience worth mentioning - I'm sure those are bound to happen from time to time. As for now, we are happy to be returning to some of our favourites that we historically had visited frequently and have been missing over the last 40 weeks (in the words of Todd, we are "so glad that Greco's is next!" - Greco's was week three and had the best score, for the record - OPA!).

So for now, I bid adieu. The rest of my summer will be spent gettin' hitched and enjoying delicious dishes around the Mediterranean... I certainly won't complain about that!

Thanks for reading - and happy eating. 

Oh yeah... just in case you're curious - here are some "Coles Notes" on the blog adventures:
