"Wherever your restaurant, it doesn't matter. What
does matter is that we get people back, keep them safe and do something special to preserve the businesses that are integral to our communities," says van Heerden.
The station says that 'Scenic Specials' can be created by any restaurant willing to create a promotional meal on Wednesdays. Those who share their special offers to
[email protected] could be featured with free on-air promotion.
Restaurants can also participate by using the '#ScenicSpecial' hashtag as the
Scenic Drive team will be encouraging their listeners to seek out specials and support the local restaurant business.
"I have a lot of respect for people in the restaurant industry and seeing my local favourites suffer recently has been heart-breaking," says van Heerden.
"If you send your 'Scenic Specials', I'll try to feature as many as I can, every Wednesday, for as long as I can," concludes van Heerden.
