Troiani Toasts Seattle’s Financial District with “Closing Bell”

New Happy Hour for West Coasters Working on Eastern Time

Seattle, Wash.—(April 2, 2008)—Taking advantage of its prime downtown location, Troiani Ristorante Italiano is introducing a sweet deal to stockbrokers and others who leave the office when Wall Street rings its closing bell.

Out of work by 2 p.m. every weekday—a little late for lunchtime, a lot early for dinner—these early risers can now relax at a happy hour designed just for them. In the comfortable bar, from 1 to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, Troiani offers even better deals than those featured during the very popular, regular happy hour (Monday through Friday, 3 to 6 p.m.).

Hot buys include:

Broker’s Martinis, Elite Martinis and Manhattans, $5

House red and white wines, draft beers, $3

Well drinks, $5

Says General Manager Buddy Dunn, “Here at Troiani, Third Avenue meets Wall Street. We offer a great way to end your day, no matter what time your closing bell is.”

All this gain and nobody has to fork over a commission.

Troiani Ristorante Italiano is located at 1001 Third Ave. in downtown Seattle. The menu features regional Italian dishes, house made pastas, desserts and expertly prepared risottos with an emphasis on the Northwest seasons, simple preparations and downtown cosmopolitan flair. Open for lunch Monday through Friday, 11:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m.; dinner Monday through Thursday, 5 – 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday, 5 – 10 p.m.; closed Sunday; happy hour in the bar Monday through Friday, 3 – 7 p.m. For more information, www.troianiseattle.com or (206) 624-4060.
