GALION The Galion-Crestline Area Chamber of Commerce is planning a celebration of local restaurants to kick off the month of February.
Executive Director Miranda Jones said the agency’s Restaurant Week Love Local promotion is scheduled to begin on Monday, Feb. 1 and run through Sunday, Feb. 7.
“Typically, (January and February) are the slowest months for restaurants and that industry,” Jones said. “People have made New Year’s resolutions to lose weight or money’s tight at the first of the year and you’re going to eat out less. So we’re going to help people break their New Year’s resolutions by encouraging them to eat out at our local restaurants.”

Most businesses follow strategies dictated by marketing studies.
Then there are places like Fruition Organic Market, which moved into the former El Tarasco location at Goat Hill in Manhattan Beach. I’m pretty much certain that no marketing consultants were involved in the choice of location, menu, hours, or anything else. The business is located in the slightly shabby Goat Hill development and has poor visibility; their hours are odd – they serve breakfast but don’t open until 10 a.m., after most people have their first meal of the day; and they close at 3 p.m. so miss any potential dinner business.
