Nurses Week - show your appreciation of the nurses that work in and around you and your business every day. My wife is a nurse and she has a family of nurses too! I know all too well how hard a nurse works and they deserve attention for looking out for the sick, ailing, injured and dying.  Why not host a Nurses Appreciation Week in your restaurant with specials just for them! Offer deals and specials on appetizers, salads, veggie plates and any other healthy meal options you carry - nurses know all too well about health and well being and will appreciate that you know that too! 
                         - along with specials for your nurse customers, we love giving gifts too. Check out these 400 fresh carnations wholesale that you can place in a vase and give each nurse a memory of your place and the good time they had.
We order these often for many holidays in our business because we want to show our customers how much we appreciate them and value them. They love knowing we care, think of them and go the extra mile to show it. Happy Nurses Week! Show a Nurse you care as much as she does.
Cheers my friends!

Valentines Day in your restaurant: 

Valentines Day is definitely one of the most successful restaurant business days for you. Many young couples go out on Valentines Day and if you take reservations for holidays, you'll want to start taking reservations for Valentines Day as soon as the first person calls to inquire. Advertise Valentines Day specials in your restaurant, on your guest checks, on your table tents and on flyers near your front door. Use our favorite tips for a romantic dinner:

     Plan a romantic dinner menu for two. Offer a few suggested menu options sure to please at an affordable price. Surf and Turf is one of the most popular options,
Share an entree option is also popular and you'll find couples that want to look at your own menu and decide what you can offer. Steaks, seafood, pasta and salad entrees are typically popular options for couples to share.

     Allow at least one to two hours for each reservation setting before you take reservations for more tables on Valentines Day. Give couples time to relax and enjoy dinner without feeling pressured to leave.

     Leave room between tables to give couples space and privacy to have a romantic dinner out. Tables right next to each other aren't private and won't give the romantic dinner for two that couples want on this most popular night out. Stagger your tables to provide enough room for conversations to be private. Booths are romantic and if you have them, you'll use them first - no doubt.

     Set a romantic table using linens, candles or flowers and clean table settings for your guests on Valentines Day. No matter what type of restaurant you operate, you can find simple supplies to create a beautiful table for your guests. Coordinate colors with your space for the best appearance.We found the best romantic table setting decorations for you right here to help you create a beautiful table for your couples, groups or banquets at a great price!
