Friday, July 27, 2012, Myrtle Beach - The 2012 Summer Olympics start today, and to honor the event several Myrtle Beach area restaurant owners are offering special meals only during the games. 

For example, Jimmy Miller of Jimmyz Hibachi is making a special Korean dish called Bibimbap (try it, it's delicious!).

Sara Seyoum of Redi-et Ethiopian is offering free samples of Chikka during the Olympics. Chikka is a blend of clarified butter and toasted barley that famous Ethiopian runners eat.

At McCann's Pub & Eatery (a.k.a. Ye Olde Bull & Bush), John McCann has an Olympic roast lamb special.
