ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Want to try death by chocolate? How does a grilled skirt steak churrasco sound? Want to try a pimento cheese jar? Up for some fried Oreos?

That’s just a sampling of what’s on the menu during Alpharetta Restaurant Week. It runs from Feb. 26 to Mar. 4 in the north Atlanta town.

Fourty-five Alpharetta restaurants will offer a special three-course lunch or dinner menu. Prices start at $25.

Fogon and Lions restaurant is a Spanish-Latin concept,” chef Julio Delgado told WSB-TV’s Nelson Hicks. “We have beautiful tapas. Everything is cooked over a wood fire. (We have some) amazing Paellas, churrascos. We have a very diverse menu featuring cuisines from Central, South America and Spain.”

Fogon and Lions is Delgado’s second restaurant in Alpharetta. Minnie Olivia has been open for about three years. Delgado opened Fogon and Lions last year. Both restaurants are participating in Alpharetta Restaurant Week.

Fogon and Lions offers restaurant week diners a choice between shrimp al ajillo, Delgado’s beef empanadas and ahi tuna tiradito for the first course. The second course includes a choice between a grilled skirt steak churrasco, rum-maple glazed Chilean salmon and adobo wood-roasted chicken. Dessert options include crema catalana and Basque-style cheesecake.

That’s just one option diners have. With restaurants all over Alpharetta taking part, there’s a restaurant to suit every palate.

“You can go down to Secreto and get that good old Southern fried chicken,” said Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau’s Kendall Bagley. “You can stop by July Moon Bakery & Cafe and try their Asian charcuterie board. There’s (food from) all across the globe.”
