Culinary School Offering $75 Valentines' Day Special

(SAN BERNARDINO, Calif.) A few reservations are still available for a great Valentines’ Day deal – dinner for two at Seasons’ Restaurant at The International Culinary School of The Art Institute of California, for only $75 a couple.

Seasons Restaurant, located at 630 E. Brier Drive, provides real-world training for students of The International Culinary School at The Art Institute of California. Thus, the $75 Valentines’ Day special features a menu that would be on par with the area’s finest dining establishments, yet at a fraction of the price.

Seasons is usually closed on Saturdays but will open on Feb. 14 from 6-8 p.m. with reservations only. For more information or to make reservations, call (909) 915-2170.

“Seasons is offering a Valentine’s Day special which is a four-course meal for $75 per couple,” said Eyad Joseph, Academic Director of The International Culinary School. “Most restaurants usually charge between $100-$250 per couple and are usually booked months in advance for Valentine’s Day.” The menu will be a four-course meal with selections from poultry, beef and seafood and a vegetarian dish.

Joseph said the idea for the Valentine’s Day special came from one of his students who suggested that Seasons stay open on Feb. 14, since most of the other restaurants are already booked up. “Valentine’s Day is a very busy day for couples and families taking their moms and dads out,” Joseph said. “Most restaurants are usually filled up months in advance, so I expect many people who left it to the last minute will welcome the fact we are open.”
