Dine About Town

Living in California, socializing and eating out come with the territory, but it also adds up!  While the good food and company are well worth the cost, here is a fun money saving tip to save a few bucks on your next evening out, wherever you live!

Sushi dinner in San Francisco

Many cities have annual dining events, with prix fixe menus at a steep discount from what the selected restaurants normally charge.  The key with these events is to keep an eye on when they are happening, and get a reservation in advance! It's a great opportunity to check out new (expensive) restaurants for a fraction of the cost! OpenTable has a list of "restaurant weeks" throughout the country.  Or, if you're in the bay area, San Francisco is currently doing their "Dine About Town" event June 1-15, 2014, and San Jose has an annual event also! Bon Appetit!
