Patina Restaurant Group First to Respond
We just received an email from Patina Restaurant Group (Brasserie, Brasserie 8 1/2, Nick & Stef’s, Cafe Centro, Naples 45, The Sea Grill, etc) in response to our complaint from earlier that the dessert course makes Restaurant Week deals less sweet. Here it is:
Just read your piece about the problems with Restaurant Week and agree. I’m happy to tell you that the Patina Restaurant Group understands the concern diners like yourself have as it relates to the cost of a drink during this rough economy. So, in addition to the participation of most of their restaurants in Restaurant Week, they’ve gone ahead and provided a boost to those wishing to wine and dine with two promotions. The first promotion is featured at Cucina & Co. (MetLife Building) and consists of a three course dinner (app, entrée and dessert) AND a glass of wine for $19.50…besting all current Restaurant Week options. I’ve attached a flier for it.
The second special program is featured at most of the Patina Restaurant Group restaurants in NYC, LA and NJ. I’ve included the press announcement below but to summarize – it’s called “Wines for the Wise” and all bottles of wine (red, white, bubbly or otherwise) are now 25% off through March 31. Again, please see press release for full details.
I hope that you’ll let your readers know that someone out there understands and is making good on your request.
