OLIVE GARDEN’S ANNUAL NEVER-ENDING PASTA BOWL
OFFERS “ENDLESS” POSSIBILITIES
ORLANDO, Fla. – Spaghetti with meat sauce, fettuccine with creamy Alfredo, and whole wheat linguine with Five Cheese Marinara are just a few of the 42 combinations of pasta and homemade sauces available on the menu during Olive Garden’s annual Never-Ending Pasta Bowl from Aug. 28 through Oct. 15.
Priced at just $7.95, guests can choose from unlimited pairings of seven different pastas and six different sauces, and all sauces, including new Spinach Alfredo and new Sundried Tomato Parmesan, are made in restaurant kitchens from fresh ingredients daily. “Never Ending Pasta Bowl is one of our most popular menu promotions,” said John Caron, executive vice president of marketing for Olive Garden. “It comes at a time when the pace of life has picked up – summer is drawing to a close and kids are back in school. This is a great way for families to enjoy a meal together and reconnect, with enough choices to satisfy all different tastes.” For more variety, grilled chicken or sausage can be added to each bowl for an additional $1.95. Olive Garden is the leading restaurant in the Italian dining segment with 582 restaurants, 70,000 employees and $2.6 billion in annual sales. Olive Garden is a division of Darden Restaurants Inc. (NYSE:DRI), the world’s largest casual dining company. |
