It’s that time of year again and the party is back!
Tomorrow, Tuesday, March 20, hungry seafood fans can catch a “reel” deal at Ivar’s Seafood Bars and full-service restaurants in celebration of what would have been the o-fish-al 113th birthday of Ivar Haglund, the restaurants’ iconic flounder. Throughout the day, fans who purchase one regularly priced entrée and wish Ivar “Happy Birthday,” will receive a second entrée of their choice – from a special birthday menu – for just $1.13. In addition to the birthday discounts, Ivar’s will also treat the first 113 guests at each location to a celebratory pineapple coconut mini cupcake dessert made by Cakes of Paradise in Seattle.
Fans can also get in on the birthday action and strike a pose using the custom Ivar’s photo frame on Facebook. Beginning today, guests who are Facebook users can visit Ivars.com/birthday, select a link for one of two celebratory digital photo frames to take a photo with Facebook’s camera feature. Once the photo is taken, fans can immediately share on their Facebook page or with friends – and include hashtag #IvarsBDay – to be entered into a sweepstakes for a chance to win a $113 Ivar’s Gift Card. Fans can also ‘save’ the image – include hashtag #IvarsBDay – to enter via Twitter or Instagram too. The birthday contest begins March 12 and ends March 21. Additional rules and details will be available at Ivars.com.
The birthday bargain is available all day at any of the 21 Ivar’s Seafood Bars located throughout Washington state, excluding airport and stadium locations. Most Seafood Bars will have extended hours (10 a.m. – 10:30 p.m.) to accommodate the influx of hungry revelers, with hours varying by location. Ivar’s Acres of Clams on the Seattle waterfront, Ivar’s Salmon House on north Lake Union and Ivar’s Mukilteo Landing overlooking Possession Sound, are also putting on party hats to dish out the birthday deal.
Sample birthday menu items include: Fish ‘n Chips; Halibut ‘n Chips; Jumbo Prawns ‘n Chips; Sourdough Bread Bowl with Ivar’s would-famous clam chowder; Cedar Plank Roasted Alaska Sockeye Salmon; Salmon House Seafood Medley; Pier 54 Cioppino and Ivar’s Classic Dungeness Crab & Bay Shrimp Louie.
