Restaurant Week: Keeping Appetites and Wallets Satisfied


Event to benefit local restaurants, diners and Baton Rouge Food Bank
Baton Rouge, LA – Discover Baton Rouge’s finest restaurants for a fraction of the cost as DIG Magazine and Abita Brewing Company
presents the 8th installment of Restaurant Week Baton Rouge. This event will showcase around 50 of the best dining establishments
from all areas of the city during the week of July 11-16, 2016.

Diners will enjoy special 3-course menus at fixed prices from $15-$35 per person from some of the city’s best restaurants. With
prices so desirable and food so delicious, picking a restaurant may seem like a dilemma. That's why DIG Magazine provides
www.EatBR.com - the ultimate one stop shop for all things restaurant week.

Eatbr.com provides a comprehensive restaurant list, price point breakdowns, pre-fixe menus, reservation tools and everything you
need to dine out in the coming week. Links to restaurant websites and directions are also available on each page. If you’re feeling
lucky, there is even a chance to win 5 dinners for 4 people, a $250 Whole Foods Market gift card, a Bite & Booze gift basket and a
pair of The Texas Club tickets.

This bi-annual city-wide event offers more than delicious food and prices. On behalf of the diners, sponsors and participating
restaurants, a donation of $5,000 will be gifted to the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank. These bi-annual donations are equivalent to
50,000 meals for those in need by year's end.

“The Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank is excited for another installment of Restaurant Week. It’s great that the purveyors of fine
cuisine in the Baton Rouge area are joining us to help put food on the table of so many in need in our area. Restaurant Week gives
the community a chance to support and experience local restaurants while also lending support to the Food Bank and the hungry in
the 11 parishes that we serve. The monies from Restaurant Week help provide meals to those most in need in our service area at a
time when it is desperately needed.” said Mike Manning, president and chief executive officer of the Greater Baton Rouge Food
Bank.
