At 13 cultural restaurants and bakeries in the City of Lancaster, PA, you will receive free samples of their specialties (a $40 value!), plus generous coupon offers for menu items (an additional $40 value!). The coupons are valid any hours that the restaurants are open until December 31, 2010.

• If you’re on Facebook, share this and tell others about the contest. You can visit our Facebook page and become a “fan.”

• If you’re on Twitter, we would love for you to follow us @FigLancaster and retweet about this contest when we send it out there.

This contest runs until 4pm Friday (12/18) so make sure you enter and tell your friends!
