Restaurant Week Extended

Syracuse, NY - The popular Syracuse "Restaurant Week" is running from February 16th to February 28th, which has been expanded for another week. The week features 17 downtown restaurants that offer three course meals for $25.

Downtown Committee Executive Director David Mankiewicz told the Post Standard some of the reasons for the extension are that restaurants could benefit from the extra traffic during the economic slump, customers who weren't able to schedule reservations during the busy week will have more time to enjoy discounted prices at the restaurant of their choice, and AmeriCU signed on as a sponsor of the event, allowing for more promotion.

The sponsorship was announced last week in Armory Square.
