502 Restaurant Week

In over 200 cities around the country, dozens of restaurants are participating in National Restaurant Week.   Louisville has introduced 502 Week as a new Foodie event for this fast-growing culinary city, running February 22 through March 3.  Twenty-nine incredible restaurants around Louisville have chosen to participate in 502 Week, one being Winston's Restaurant here at Sullivan University.  According the the primary press release, the purpose for this city-wide event is to "promote the incredible restaurant industry that Louisville has become so famous for and to drive business into restaurants during a seasonal lull."

Each restaurant involved has designed a special menu for the event. These menus can be collectively seen on the 502 Restaurant Week website.  Most of the participating restaurants are abiding by the general deal of a three-course dinner for two people for $50.20.  Some, like Winston's, are offering some other fantastic specials as well. 

I am currently finishing up my culinary internship at Winston's.  The last couple weeks have been fun and educational in preparation for this great event.  The Winston's 502 Menu can be seen here.  Unlike most of the other participating restaurants, Winston's is doing things a little differently:

• The smaller four-course menu includes a cup of soup, two choices from the small plate menu, and a dessert for $25.10. 
• The larger four-course menu is comprised of a cup of soup to start followed by one selection from the small plate menu, one selection from the large plate menu, and a choice of dessert for $50.20.
• Winston's is also offering glasses of wine for $5.02, as well as $5.02 of any full bottle of wine.

These deals, at Winston's and the other restaurants involved in 502 Week, are incredible! Make sure to take advantage this week!
