Louisville Originals Announces New Addition

Aug. 21, 2012 - PRLog -- The Louisville Originals are committed to preserving a culinary sense of place. The Louisville Originals welcomes Buegrass Brewing Co. to our group. Restaurants are eligible to join every six months. The full list can be found on the Louisville Originals web site at www.louisvilleoriginals.com.

“We now have 36 member restaurants,” states Maggie de la Torre, owner of De la Torre’s and La Bodega, and president of Louisville Originals. “We’re proud to have such a large group of excellent independent restaurateurs.”

Bluegrass Brewing Co. is now accepting the Louisville Originals Rewards Card at all 3 dining locations:  BBC East in St. Matthews, BBC 4th Street at Theater Square, and BBC Arena - 3rd and Main. The frequent diner card rewards customers for dining at Louisville Originals restaurants. Patrons can sign up for a FREE Louisville Originals Rewards Card at any Louisville Original restaurant. Every time a rewards card carrying patron dines at any LO restaurant, they receive one point for each dollar spent. When 150 points are accumulated, the patron’s card is automatically credited for $10. The $10 reward can be used on the next Louisville Originals visit or can be stored on the card while accumulating more points. Patrons can receive up to 500 points per visit, and redeem up to $100 per visit. The first Tuesday of the month is Double Points Tuesday when patrons automatically receive double points for dining at a Louisville Originals restaurant.

The Louisville Originals funding comes in part through the sale of online discount web certificates from our restaurants. Every quarter a limited number of discount web certificates are available through the association web site. Additional funding comes through the sale of the Louisville Originals Gift Card. A great local gift for any special occasion, the Louisville Originals Gift Card is accepted at all of our restaurants. Gift cards can be purchased online, at all ValuMarket stores, and at the Louisville Visitor’s Center with amounts from $25 up to $1000 assigned to the card. The gift cards can be used multiple times at Louisville Original restaurants.  

Louisville Originals group benefits also include group purchasing and marketing, networking, community involvement, and volunteer opportunities. Louisville Originals supports community activities that benefit local dining.
