Good Eats for a Good Cause at Spicy Pickle(TM) Sept. 28 - Oct. 4 as Two Restaurants Celebrate 1st Anniversary in Colorado Spring

Percentage of Sales Will Benefit Local Schools 


COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 25  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Both Spicy Pickle(TM) (OTC:SPKL) (BULLETIN BOARD: SPKL)   restaurants in Colorado Springs are celebrating their first anniversaries in business beginning Sunday by earmarking 15% of net sales from September 28 - October 4 for donation to local schools. The Spicy Pickle eateries at 1466 W. Garden of the Gods Rd. and 9275 N. Union Blvd. will be contributing funds to Cornado High School's athletic department and Mountain Ridge Middle School's general fund, respectively, to thank area residents for their patronage.

Both restaurants feature hot-pressed panini sandwiches, signature subs and gourmet salads -- all original recipes with handcrafted artisan breads and unusual ingredients like different mayonnaises with basil, chipotle, horseradish and sun-dried tomato flavors -- plus a build-your-own sandwich menu with hundreds of possible combinations. There is also a kid's menu for ages 8 and under, and a companion catering menu for events ranging from office meetings to tailgate parties.

"We came into Colorado Springs a year ago with two locations and a menu that is as different from a mainstream sandwich shop as the Springs is from Kansas, and we're now tightly knit into the fabric of the community," said John Volmert, owner of both local Spicy Pickle restaurants. "Springs residents have given to us over the past year, and our anniversary is an ideal time to give back."

The Spicy Pickle at 1466 W. Garden of the Gods Rd. (719-388-9474) is open Monday - Friday 10:30 am to 4 pm, 11 am to 4 pm on Saturday, and closed Sunday. The Spicy Pickle at 9275 N. Union Blvd. (719-282-1442) is open 10:30 am to 7 pm Monday-Friday and 11 am to 6 pm Saturday and Sunday. Dine-in and catering menus for both restaurants can be found at http://www.spicypickle.com/
