Garlic Festival Returns To Upperline. Three Courses $35.
The Upperline is back for the twenty-ninth year with its Summer Garlic Festival. It's long since that went beyond popular to become legendary. Not only do many locals visit the restaurant multiple times to dig the garlic, but people from out of town come in with that menu specifically in mind. The price is $35 for three courses, and the food is delicious. It begins with a whole head of roasted garlic, soft enough to spread on bread. The Garlic Festival menu is available every night, along with the regular menu, Wednesdays through Sundays, through September 11. Here's the menu:Whole Head Of Roasted Garlic
