There's a brand new campaign starting in Rochester that promises discounts and specials at local restaurants. It's called "Crave Local Restaurants" and it's modeled after "Restaurant Week".

April 20 through April 29, 120 restaurants from Henrietta to Gates to Canandaigua will be featuring menu specials.

“Crave Local Restaurants" was created by the president of Palmer Foods. Dwight Palmer says it's a great way to attract tourists, stimulate the economy and promote local food culture.

Celebrity photos, sports items and local memorabilia are among dozens of items that customers can bid on at the Applebee’s in Irondequoit.

The restaurant is preparing for its upcoming remodel and items currently on the walls in the restaurant will be up for auction. The auction goes until Sunday, February 12 at 5 p.m.

All proceeds will benefit the local Make-A-Wish Foundation chapter to help grant the wishes of children diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition.

All bids must be made through the Applebee's restaurant manager on-duty and items must be paid for in cash. Customers have until 5 p.m. Sunday, February 12 to pick up purchased items.

For more information, please call (585) 339-9750.
