Restaurant Weak
On the left, the advertisement for Center City Restaurant Week. At right, the ad for South Jersey Restaurant Week (apparently featuring hot chefs). The Restaurant Week on the left was started in 2003. The one on the right, in 2005. And now the people behind the one on the lefthave sued the people behind the one on the right. The Center City District’s lawsuit, filed Nov. 1, asserts the ads of South Jersey Restaurant Week — held at a different time than Center City Restaurant Week — are “confusingly similar” to the CCD’s Restaurant Week ads. And “column list of restaurants with red background” is trademarked by CCD, watch out. But as a commenter on the Food and Drinq (har) blog comments, “Philly’s is 3 courses for $30, SJ’s is 4 courses for 30 - that’s a major difference.” That might be enough to turn the case. |

probably the fact that no one dining in center city would venture into south jersey and from the comments i read on the south jersey paper sites the opposite is prolly true
Wouldn’t all the south jersey addresses give diners a clue that this wasn’t sponsored by CC?
