Terroir Restaurant Announces Extension of First Bite Boulder Dinner Special

Monday, October 19, 2009
Longmont, Colorado

Longmont’s pioneering restaurant, Terroir, announces that it will extend the ever popular First Bite Boulder dining program from one week to two weeks. Participating First Bite Boulder restaurants offer a special dining option to diners from November 14th to November 21st. This dining option includes three courses for $26. Terroir will offer this option beginning on November 7th and continue this promotion until November 21st. This makes Terroir Restaurant the only restaurant in Longmont to extend this dining promotion for two weeks and one of the only restaurants among the First Bite Boulder participating listing of restaurants to do so. The announcement according to restaurant co-owner Melissa Newell is exciting for the restaurant. “First Bite is a great time for diners in the front range area. It provides a great venue for new diners to try several restaurants at an affordable rate and by extending the duration of the promotion, our restaurant can show additional diners what we have to offer. Affordable, local, and organically focused food in a sophisticated unpretentious setting.”
