Your taste buds will definitely come alive this year at Starapples. The Hope Road-based eatery is back this year for the Gleaner-sponsored Restaurant Week with something for everyone on their menu.

They kick off the first day of the week-long culinary extravaganza with their all-you-can-eat crab night. Juicy morsels of the crustacean done every way you like.

And speaking of crustacean, any night you dine you can get started with their special battered shrimp. Jumbo shrimps are dipped in a beer batter, fried golden brown and served with a delicious spicy honey dip.

But if that is not your speed, or if you're a vegetarian, then the vegetable quessadia is designed with you in mind. Zucchini, egg plant, cho cho, carrots and sweet pepper are smothered and baked in a combination of mozzarella, cheddar and parmesan cheese served with sour cream sauce.

Meat lovers are definitely not left out and you can indulge in their smoked pork in spicy pineapple sauce served with mashed potatoes, and top your night off with chocolate chip macaroon served with chocolate sauce.
