Why don’t I see my favorite Uptown restaurant as a participant?  
This event is produced by the Uptown Chamber of Commerce, Uptown’s premier business association since 1923.  The Uptown Chamber works to nurture a diverse, vibrant, and thriving Uptown by supporting and strengthening both existing and new businesses and organizations. Participation in this event is limited to members of the organization. We extended an invitation to all of our member restaurants to participate and we also invite non-member businesses to join the Uptown Chamber if they'd like to be a part of the event, but not all businesses chose to participate.  Additionally, we aim to make the route of this event to be easily walkable, therefore some businesses may be “hosted” at other businesses. If you’d like your favorite restaurant to participate, please mention it to them or let us know.
