17 RESTAURANTS WILL CONTINUE TO OFFER A $35 3-COURSE PRIX FIXE MENU THROUGH NOVEMBER 1
FOR A VARIETY OF DINING OPTIONS
(Times Square, N.Y. – October 28, 2020) The Times Square Alliance today announced today that their
Taste of Times Square Week will be extended through the weekend after a successful start to the week.
The promotion will be available at 17 restaurants (listed below) through Sunday, November 1.
Taste of Times Square Week is a twist on the 26 year tradition of Taste of Times Square, the annual
outdoor food and music festival on 46th Street which offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy dishes from
restaurants across the district and performances from a wide range of the city’s musical talent. Now in
its 27th year, the festival has pivoted to TASTE OF TIMES SQUARE WEEK to support local businesses
struggling to serve customers during a global pandemic. During Taste of Times Square Week, the twenty
participating restaurants will feature a special Taste of Times Square three-course prix fixe menu —
appetizers, entrées, and dessert — for only $35 (beverages, tax, and tip not included). Diners can sit
indoors or outdoors, compliant with New York State COVID-19 dining regulations, or get their food
delivered or to go as the restaurant offers. The promotion kicked off Friday, October 23 and has been
extended through Sunday November 1. Details about participating restaurants (also listed below) and
their menus can be found at www.TSq.org/Taste.
“Every June for the past 26 years, we have celebrated international cuisine and live music in Times
Square through a multi-block festival,” said Tim Tompkins, President of the Times Square Alliance. "Our
event looks different this year but supporting our restaurants hasn't changed. We call New Yorkers and
visitors who are #AllInNYC to Times Square to explore these fabulous restaurants that are safely
welcoming guests with delicious food.”
To enhance your dining experience, Tony’s Di Napoli will be activating the plaza at 43rd Street and
Broadway with a pop-up outdoor cafe area, complete with old-school checkered tablecloths and familystyle
Italian cuisine so that you can dine under the lights and signs of Times Square. This unique dining
experience is available by reservation only and can be arranged by contacting Tony's directly at: 212-
221-0100.
To continue the tradition of live music at Taste, we have partnered with the Hell’s Kitchen Happiness
Krewe, which uses artistic and musical performances to spread joy through the neighborhood and drive
revenue to restaurants and other small businesses. They engage the community in song, dance, and
visual art, all while wearing masks and remaining socially distanced. These performances will pop up
throughout the week in front of participating restaurants and will continue to employ artists and
musicians who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19.
Footage and interviews can be arranged by contacting TJ Witham at the Times Square Alliance:
tjwitham@timessquarenyc.org or 212-452-5234. For a complete set of media assets including photos

About Hell’s Kitchen Happiness Krewe
The Hell's Kitchen Happiness Krewe outdoor Musical pop up program was created in the summer of
2020 by Theatre Producer, Holly-Anne Devlin through her company KALEIDOSCOPE ENTERTAINMENT, in
response to the Covid-19 crisis. The Krewe employs artists in a variety of disciplines and brings attention
to the needs of small businesses in Hell's Kitchen, an area that has been disproportionately impacted by
Covid-19 due to the reliance of tourism from the theatre district.
