Thursday, Jul 1, 3:00PM
Duluth, GA – The GCVB is pleased to announce that Monday, July 19 Thursday, July 22, 2010 will be the dates of the 2010 Gwinnett Restaurant Week. This popular dining promotion features 18 participating restaurants, each of whom offers a three-course meal for just $21.21 (plus tax/gratuity). “Great meals and a great deal; that is kind of our motto for Gwinnett Restaurant Week,” explains Lisa Anders, GCVB Marketing Communications Director. She adds, “The GCVB conceived Restaurant Week for a couple of reasons: one, to showcase some of our best restaurants to both our visitors and our locals, and by offering great value to diners.”
Most participating restaurants require reservations for Restaurant Week, and Anders suggests making them early to confirm space. “A number of our restaurants sell out each year, so the earlier the better for making reservations; people are really excited by the variety of menus and the great price point.” Restaurants are also excited by the event; with Melting Pot Proprietor Layla Haddad Gunn adding, “We are very excited to be a part of Gwinnett Restaurant Week! Gwinnett has so many wonderful restaurants, and it’s a great way for the community to dine at old favorites or find new hot spots.” Participating restaurants include:
 
• Aqua Terra Bistro, Buford
• Park Café, Duluth
• The Melting Pot, Duluth
• Sugo, Medlock Bridge Rd, Duluth
• Hi-Life Kitchen, Norcross
