FLORENCE – Florence Main Street is kicking Florence Restaurant Week up a notch by adding a new event called the Taste of Kick-Off Event on Tuesday, May 5th from 6:30pm until 8:30pm at Singin’ River Brewery, 526 E College Street. Tickets are $20 which can be purchased online at www.florencemainstreet.org or at the Main Street office, 301 North Pine Street. Admission includes two samples of Singin’ River Brewery special brew and a sample from every participating restaurant.
The event will showcase the sponsors of Restaurant Week, every participating restaurant, our four judges, local foodie bloggers, out of town foodie bloggers, and volunteers. In addition, we will unveil the five local charities that make it to the coveted charity ballot. This is the community’s opportunity to meet and greet the charities in person to ask questions and understand how they impact the Shoals.
Then, from May 8-16, Florence Restaurant Week 2015 begins!!! Every time you dine at a participating restaurant, you will have the opportunity to vote for one of our five local charities. Every time you dine, you get to vote! The charity with the most votes at the end of the week will walk away with a check for $5,000 presented by McDaniel Window & Door that will be used to impact our community right here in the Shoals.
Mark your calendars now for FLORENCE RESTAURANT WEEK–May 8-16, 2015! And please, help us do good where it counts by supporting local restaurants and our charities.
