🍽 Hey Quad Cities… we want to do something simple.
Every Friday at Chef’s Island Express, we’re giving away a free meal to someone in our community.
No contest.
No gimmicks.
Just good food for someone who deserves a little lift this week.
Maybe it’s:
❤️ a nurse getting off a long shift
❤️ a parent juggling everything
❤️ a teacher who gives their whole heart
❤️ a friend who’s always there when people need them
👇 Tag someone who deserves a free meal this Friday.
If you want, tell us a little about them too.
We’ll pick one person and announce the winner Friday.
Running a small restaurant means a lot to us, and being part of this community means even more. We’re grateful to serve Bettendorf every day.
Let’s make someone’s week a little better.
