What do you get when you combine Food Network star chefs and amazing cuisine at prices that don’t dent the wallet, all in a beautiful Island setting? You get the ever-popular Hilton Head Island Restaurant Week.
The Island boasts over 200 restaurants featuring every conceivable cuisine from the latest in gourmet to Lowcountry faves like shrimp and grits and Frogmore Stew. Some of the region’s most notable restaurants are offering up special prix-fixe menus for one week only during Hilton Head Island Restaurant Week. Dining out is a big part of travel and today’s travelers are demanding not only a beautiful locale, but cuisine that makes the trip memorable. It’s all part of the experience, and Hilton Head Island Restaurant Week offers diners a prime opportunity to combine their love of travel and food.
The resort Island is home to not one, but two Food Network favorites. Chef Robert Irvine and Food Network Star finalist Orchid Palmeier both have popular establishments on the Island that are offering great deals on some of their signature dishes during Restaurant Week.
Foodspotting, a social network that revolves around taking and sharing pictures of delicious dishes, will also be participating in this event. Hilton Head Island will have its own exclusive Foodspotting guide, which will serve as an interactive way to see all the culinary dishes. This online guide will feature pictures and recommendations of the tastiest selections being served up at Restaurant Week. Those who “spot,” or take pictures of menu items during will receive a custom badge! Don’t have Foodspotting yet? Download the app to your phone today!
Modeled after successful restaurant weeks in cities like New York and San Francisco, it’s one more way that the Island is staking its claim on the culinary map. “Hilton Head Island is becoming known for its culinary scene with two Food Network chefs on the island and so many great restaurants to choose from, travelers get to experience the best in new Southern cuisine,” said visitor’s bureau Vice President Susan Thomas who noted that the popular Foodspotting app is this year’s media sponsor. “Foodies are finding that our Island has a lot to offer when it comes discovering fantastic food.”
