The organization is a collaboration of 200 restaurants and businesses promoting New York’s Hudson Valley as a premier culinary destination and providing diners with the opportunity to enjoy exceptional dining at a fraction of the normal price point. 

Owners (and brothers) Agron and Jimmy Rugova, whose sister restaurant, Dolphin is in Yonkers, say that because of CHAR's close proximity to Westchester, and their connection to the county, it was only natural to take part in the event.
