On November 21, the autumn Restaurant Day will take place. This time, the Irkutsk airport will provide the venue for restaurateurs.– Airports are becoming venues for cultural and public life, hosting concerts, exhibitions, and performances on their premises. We do not want to stay on the sidelines. Especially since the location of our airport — almost in the city center — makes this possible. “Restaurant Day” is a beautiful, positive initiative. Such things need to be developed and supported. So we decided to support it, says Oksana Dobrodeeva, head of the press service of the Irkutsk airport.
As the event coordinators report, this time they will try to make the menu more diverse. “We expect some national communities to take part with traditional dishes. We have also started contacting local self-government bodies so they can help attract people; we especially want to see more family-run restaurants,” they note.
Reference: Restaurant Day is a worldwide flash mob in which anyone who wishes opens a one-day restaurant, café, or any other establishment and treats others to their culinary masterpieces.
