CT Restaurants Band Together to Help Puerto Rico – CT ❤️ PR

Helping out is simple: just have a drink and a dish . . . or maybe two or three of them! ;)

CT Loves PR is a collective of restaurants, bakers, bartenders, restaurant owners, and more who are coming together to help the recovery efforts in Puerto Rico. As you might be aware, recovery efforts have been difficult, especially because 90% of the island is still without power. In addition, many communities still struggle to find clean drinking water, with some people having to wait in lines all day. While it is certainly overwhelming and difficult to think about what is going on in Puerto Rico, CT Loves PR plans to help out.

From October 21-28, participating restaurants will offer up one dish and one cocktail that is inspired by Puerto Rico. 100% of the proceeds from these drinks and dishes will go directly to Unidos Por Puerto Rico, a fund started by, Beatriz Rosselló, the First Lady of Puerto Rico. That’s all you have to do: drink and eat up! 

Here are the restaurants (as of 10/12) that are participating. If you are a restaurant or bar and would like to take part, please e-mail here by Friday, 10/13.
