Absinthe’s green stuff
Oh, hey — if you’re not quite at the point where you need our priceless Hard Times Handbook — or if you’ve been hungrily saving up your scratch, just itching to try out some high-endish dining joints like Absinthe, LuLu, or Pres a Vi — here’s a chance to pick up your fancy fork for less and see things from the richer side.
Yep, that summit of budget culinary yum, Dine About Town, is upon us once again (the eighth year!), brought by the good folks of Taste SF.
Here’s the deal: Intriguing restaurants around the town are hoping to tempt you to their tables (and come back for more?). From Thurs/15 – Sat/31 you can dive into a three-course prix fixe lunch or dinner at more than 100 Bay Area restaurants. Lunch: $21.95. Dinner: 34.95. That sounds like a helluva lot — but for what you get in most cases, it’s totally worth it. Splurge on a fancy dinner or huge lunch on the cheap? Win.
