BASSETERRE (17th July, 2015): St Kitts and Nevis will kick off its first-annual Restaurant Week with tasting events at various hotels and restaurants. The events are open to the public, and all are invited to attend.
During Restaurant Week, July 16 to 26, 2015, restaurants across the Federation will offer special Restaurant Week menus at deep discounted prices. Some will offer Restaurant Week specials for just dinner, some just lunch, and some lunch and dinner. Over thirty restaurants between St. Kitts and Nevis are participating. The full list is available at www.restaurantweek.kn.
Organiziers of St. Kitts-Nevis Restaurant Week include the Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Agriculture, Hotel and Tourism Association, and Tourism Authorities of both islands.
Restaurant Week aims to:
• Create affordable opportunities for locals to try different restaurants,
• Celebrate local produce such as mango and breadfruit in July when it is plentiful, and
• Support small and local restaurants during the low time of tourism season.
Restaurant Week will make dining out both affordable and fun for all. In addition to rock-bottom prices for multiple course meals, restaurants will offer all customers chances to win prizes and giveaways. Additionally, two major promotions will add excitement nearly every night July 16-26.
The Restaurant Week kickoff event on Thursday July 16 will feature tastings of a signature cocktail sponsored by TDC Limited, as part of a promotion called “A Taste of TDC” that will run throughout Restaurant Week July 16-26.
