The King of Prussia District’s popular dineKOP restaurant week returned in March to its most successful year to date.

With 23 participating restaurants and thousands of customers taking part in the discounted lunch and dinner menus, this year generated incredible exposure for participating restaurants, with proceeds benefiting Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s King of Prussia Specialty Care & Surgery Center.

“As a new restaurant and concept in King of Prussia, participating in dineKOP was extremely beneficial in introducing Paladar to the local community,” said Paul Foglia, general manager for the Paladar Latin Kitchen & Rum Bar in KOP.

“We welcomed a lot of first-time guests who found their new night out destination, and our regulars enjoyed a new experience with our Restaurant Week menu.

“We look forward to our continued partnership with KOP-BID, CHOP, and the community as a whole!”

Since the creation of dineKOP, KOP-BID has partnered with CHOP’s King of Prussia Specialty Care & Surgery Center to offer diners the opportunity to dine out for a good cause.

On behalf of all 2017 dineKOP participating restaurants and diners, KOP-BID presented CHOP with a check for $13,500, with all proceeds benefiting the Center.

In three years, dineKOP has raised $37,000 for the facility.

“For yet another year, we cannot express how sincerely appreciative we are of dineKOP’s generosity during restaurant week,” said Claire Bowers, site manager at CHOP’s King of Prussia Specialty Care & Surgery Center.

“All of these funds will directly support the Center and the families who rely on it, which further increases our ability to serve those in need.”
