The Melting Pot of Westwood Celebrates Teachers and Nurses During Teacher Appreciation Week and National Nurses Week

The Melting Pot of Westwood will be enthusiastically celebrating teachers and nurses during Teacher Appreciation Week and National Nurses Week. From May 6 – May 10, the restaurant will honor the tireless and invaluable efforts of teachers and nurses in Bergen County by offering them and their guests a three-course fondue dinner for only $29.95 per person as well as provide complimentary celebration add-ons. 

“Teachers and nurses are truly dedicated and selfless professionals who often go unappreciated and overlooked. Their care and hard work leave lasting, positive impacts on our entire community,” said James Layfield, owner of The Melting Pot of Westwood.  “We wanted to turn the tables and give back to all of these special individuals and show them how important they really are to Bergen County.”

All education and healthcare professionals who participate in this week-long celebration will be able to enjoy a wide variety of tasty fondues and experience the restaurant’s new and improved menu. There will also be drink specials, games and a chance to win cool prizes, including a free chocolate fondue party for staff at the winner's school or medical office (up to 100 people)!
