  3. In January, help us get the word out by training your staff to talk about SLO Restaurant Week and your “Perfect Pairing”, put up signage at your business and communicate with your patrons to participate utilizing our SLO Restaurant Week business toolkit both in-person and online. 

  4. Then during SLO Restaurant Week - January 12-21 - help us reward your patrons for eating & drinking out by including our billfold insert into every check or display our counter signage so guests can easily scan the QR code to enter.
