GREENVILLE, S.C. — The first weekend of Restaurant Week in Greenville and Spartanburg is the perfect time to eat out and try a new dining experience.
Restaurant Week is really a 12-day opportunity for guests to get great food at a special price at participating restaurants and for chefs to show off their culinary skills.
The annual foodie festivities, sponsored by the South Carolina Restaurant and Lodging Association, began Thursday, Aug. 24 and ends Monday, Sept. 3.
From casual settings to high-end dining experiences, participating restaurants will feature exciting new dishes, along with fan favorites and multi-course menus.
But Restaurant Week is about more than just incredible meals at an incredible value. It also supports community partners across the Upstate.
Restaurant Week and Harvest Hope, South Carolina’s largest food bank, are using the days-long event to eliminate hunger and food insecurity. Participating restaurants will donate a portion of all Restaurant Week proceeds to Harvest Hope.
By rescuing nutritious food donations from stores and distributing them to food pantries, shelters, and soup kitchens, Harvest Hope provides more than 20 million meals on average to neighbors in 20 counties across the state.
Harvest Hope also runs an emergency food pantry in Greenville where anyone in need can get a week’s supply of groceries for free.
Bring your appetites and your charitable hearts this weekend through Sept. 3, and get ready to say bon appétit.
