The much-anticipated China Restaurant Week (CRW) kicks off today, March 14, and runs till March 24. Held twice a year in spring and autumn, it brings happy times for Chinese foodies.

The event brings 11 days of different culinary experiences at more than 450 restaurants in seven Chinese cities.

All participating restaurants registered on CRW's website will run two sets of fixed price menus – one for lunch, the other dinner.

Customers at each will be able to enjoy fine dining for 108-288 yuan ($16-43), some at prices of 50 percent off.

A number of Michelin-starred restaurants are taking part, including L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon, YongFoo Elite, and Jean-Georges in Shanghai.
