The Restaurant Week in July 2020 comes after a 2019 filled with culinary events like Dinner Under the Stars, a popular al fresco summer dining event that was extended by popular demand through September, and two fun-packed, first-ever Bloomfield Center Food Tours.
“The restaurants in Bloomfield Center are an important part of so many family’s traditions and individuals’ routines. I think we all realized how much we love eating food from these restaurants over the past year, and also how good it feels to find community within them,” said Ollyn Lettman, Director of the Bloomfield Center Alliance. “Coming out of this stressful period, we want to provide as much support in marketing and generating excitement and demand in our Center as we can, and we’ve found the diverse foods of Bloomfield Center are an incredible draw.”
Frank Bucco, owner of Bucco, a destination for Italian cuisine on Washington Street states, “Bucco is excited to participate in Bloomfield Center Restaurant Week. We have been offering our menu for takeout and delivery during this challenging time and are now opening limited outdoor seating. We will be offering an appetizer, entree, and dessert during restaurant week for $30.00.
Bloomfield Center Restaurant Week will begin July 13th and run through July 19th. Individuals can find a full list of dining specials and sign up for alerts at www.BloomfieldCenterRestaurantWeek.com.
