'It's a like a pub crawl, but with food:' first Ann Arbor Dishcrawl Tuesday

Are you the adventure-seeking type? Interested in trying a handful of Ann Arbor restaurants without having to commit to an entire evening in one place? Curious to meet fellow area foodies? Dishcrawl might be the event for you.

Dishcrawl is described as being like a pub crawl, but with food instead of alcohol. This is the first event in Ann Arbor for the California-based company that specializes in walking food tours. The evening starts at 7 p.m. Tuesday, and the tour will include stops at four downtown area restaurants.

Part of the excitement, said Ann Arbor Dishcrawl organizer Gabriela Islas, is that the list of restaurants remains a secret until right before the event.

Interested participants can purchase tickets for $45 per person on the Ann Arbor Dishcrawl site.

"The evening starts at 7PM"..... on WHAT DAY? That is a rather important piece of information missing from this article! I know, I know, you want me to click on the link to the event website, right?

The headline clearly says TUESDAY. How did you miss that?

Meh. $45 for 8 dishes at 4 restuarants is a pretty mediocre deal. Also, pub crawls are fun since you go with your friends. This looks like going to 4 restaurants with strangers and trying a sampler at each one. Seems like a solution looking for a problem.
