Other restaurants on the list include Babaji, Asiana and Mumbai Silk \u2013 with The Scullery, Tarantinos Steak Seafood Restaurant, Signatures Italian, House of Zen and Goa also proving popular.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRestaurant Week was a huge success, with a fair uplift in reservations and an increased flow of walk-ins too,\u201d said Nathan Ramsay from The Botanist. \u201cRunning a \u00a320 two-course menu was definitely the right choice for us. It allowed new and existing guests to visit our restaurant with the option of either ordering their favourite dishes or venturing out and trying something a bit different to the norm. Being part of Sunderland Restaurant Week is always something we sign up to as it helps to expand our customer base, along with being able to showcase the wonderful food we have to offer at great value.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sharon Appleby, chief executive of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunderlandbid.co.uk\">Sunderland BID<\/a>, said: \u201cSunderland is really building a reputation as a food destination, thanks to the growth of restaurants in the city but also through events such as The Food and Drink Festival, our monthly Sunniside food markets, and of course Sunderland Restaurant Week. This week is so popular and provides a huge boost to the city\u2019s food and drink outlets, not just for the duration of the event, but throughout the year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cllr Beth Jones \u2013 cabinet member for communities, culture and tourism at Sunderland City Council \u2013 said: \u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to see another successful Restaurant Week, with so many Sunderland businesses taking part. Our city is home to an incredible array of restaurants and caf\u00e9s that our residents take great pride in. Supporting local businesses is essential, and Restaurant Week provides a perfect opportunity for people to discover new venues while enjoying special offers. I hope this event continues to be part of Sunderland\u2019s calendar for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-block sd-like jetpack-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded\" id=\"like-post-wrapper-222683662-20632-67edd7987e206\" data-src=\"https:\/\/widgets.wp.com\/likes\/?ver=14.4.1#blog_id=222683662&amp;post_id=20632&amp;origin=www.appetitemag.co.uk&amp;obj_id=222683662-20632-67edd7987e206\" data-name=\"like-post-frame-222683662-20632-67edd7987e206\" data-title=\"Like or Reblog\">\n<h3 class=\"sd-title\">Like this:<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"button\"><span>Like<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"loading\">Loading&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"sd-text-color\"\/><a class=\"sd-link-color\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunderland\u2019s most recent Restaurant Week proved a huge hit with diners \u2013 giving a boost of nearly \u00a3500,000 to the local economy.
