It comes once a year, like Christmas, except KRLD Restaurant Week lasts longer and ends up costing you less. From Aug. 16-22, locals and visitors alike can enjoy a three-course meal in more than 130 eateries around Dallas for $35, $7 of which goes to The North Texas Food Bank or Lena Pope Home. Prix-fix for a good cause? We’re on it. Here’s some participating restaurants you should sink your teeth into. Make your reservations now. And don’t forget: you want your belt to buckle, not the chair.

A glimpse of the menu this year: Summer Zuchini Soup with Goat Cheese Fritters, Crawfish-stuffed Texas Chicken, and a Peach Sundae with Vanilla Panna Cotta and Almond Crumble.
