 Fun Fact #664

RKFD Restaurant Week (R2W)

Good Morning Everyone, I hope you had a wonderful weekend! This week marks the return of Rockford Illinois’ wonderful restaurant week whose goal is to promote local RKFD dining restaurants, among other locations which may have flown under your radar. The event is actually organized by a couple different local networking groups working together such as “GoRockford” and “InCrowd815”. If you want to see the meal deals for both Lunch and dinner this week you’ll want to visit “GoRockford”’s website (Restaurant Week in Rockford, IL Jan. 29 - Feb. 8, 2026), they also tend to keep a handy calendar up for all RKFD events held by members of their network (for a Child and young family specific version try “Stateline Kids”’ website). The event ends on Sunday February 8th (2026). 

While the intent is centered on dine-in locations it does also feature grab-n-go places including (my personal favorite) 640 meats. Honestly im sharing the information about the event because it’s factual and may help inspire you to go learn about other foods and the cultures that created them . . . erm purely for the educational value of course. Yes, the wonderful taste of the meals and a convenient excuse to hang out with friends are just an added side dish I assure you. In all seriousness I hope this information helps you guys and that you all have an amazing week.
