The smell of a humble hamburger is enough to set our mouths salivating and our stomachs rumbling. Do you recall the last delicious burger you ate right now? We are! May is Hamburger Month, and we’re celebrating it together with a few other special related days.
Special Restaurant-Related Days in May
There is the actual Hamburger Day on Friday, 28 May, when we’ll so delightfully enjoy our first bite of a rich, juicy hamburger from a couple of restaurants in Sandton Central. Then there’s Eat What You Want Day on Tuesday, 11 May, and we invite you to make that booking at the restaurant you used to love so much, but just haven’t been there in a while because of Covid-19, finances or perhaps a diet…
Celebrate Waiters Day with us on Sunday, 16 May. Being a waiter is tough and let’s face it, a lot of us have repeatedly said, ‘I don’t think that I can pull waiting tables off.’ We tend to take them for granted, but just for a second, imagine the world without waiters… Chaos! Let’s honour them by showing our appreciation for those souls who work long hours on their feet, often for a minimum wage. Instead of the 10%, make it a 15% tip, even if it’s just once.
If you love dishes, please raise your hand! Look around you. How many people have their hands in the air… Yes, we know they’re not reading the same blog at the same time. But if they did, the results would’ve been the same. Skip the dishes on Tuesday, 18 May, and celebrate No Dirty Dishes Day. Whether it’s take-away or sit-down, we encourage you to make a note and visit the restaurant at the top of your mind.
Burgers ain’t your thing? Well, there is Pizza Party Day on Friday, 21 May! If there’s one thing that makes any day better, it’s a hot slice of pizza shared among friends. Gather a group of friends together and order pizza from your favourite pizzeria or do a pizza crawl in Sandton. How does it work? Order one pizza to share from each place, and visit many establishments until you’ve had a full pizza!
