Town officials announce the return of Foodie Week at Palmer’s American Grille in Farmingdale. Shown are Carl Mattone, owner of Ficarra Ristorante of Hicksville, Bob Gebbia, owner of Palmer’s American Grille, Supervisor Joseph Saladino, and Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato.
Continuing efforts to help restaurants recover from the impact of the economic downturn, Supervisor Joseph Saladino, joined by Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato, announced the return of Foodie Week – a unique opportunity for dining establishments to showcase their world-class culinary hotspots. This week-long event highlights the finest culinary creations local chefs, bakers, and artisans have to offer, running from October 19th to October 26th.
“This great – and fun – event allows participants to support their favorite restaurants, as well as try new ones,” said Supervisor Saladino. “Restaurants are vital to our downtowns and crucial to our local economy. Foodie Week gives us the chance to support our favorite eateries through a fun and unique experience.”
Consistent with well-known New York City standards for similar restaurant promotions, a Long Island Food Critic panel has curated all participating restaurants and evaluates them based on the same set of criteria to help ensure that restaurants are of a similar caliber. Participation in Foodie Week is free of charge for restaurants located in the Town of Oyster Bay.
