Los Angeles's Restaurant Deals Online Will Save You 30%

Perhaps the only thing I enjoy more than eating well is eating well inexpensively. Today’s deal comes courtesy of BlackboardEats.com, a Los Angeles-based Web site that publishes weekly restaurant deals written by a pedigreed staff of food fanatics. Grace restaurant on Beverly Boulevard is offering a farm-to-table, three-course, $38 prix fixe dinner exclusively to BlackboardEats subscribers, starting today.

You could easily spend $55 on three courses at this elegant spot (named for the chef/owner Neal Fraser’s daughter), so through this limited offer you’re likely to save around 30%. Here are some of my favorite items on Fraser’s New American cuisine menu: Kabocha squash and roasted chestnut soup with foie gras crostini; grilled tenderloin of wild boar with roasted brussels sprouts, herbed yukon gold potato spaetzle, and violet mustard sauce; and pumpkin-filled doughnuts with graham cracker ice cream, rum sabayon, and pumpkin seeds.

So what else can you look out for on BlackboardEats? Our sources there say that come December, they’ll be giving away complimentary oyster plates at Water Grill as well as 30% off lunch at Fraîche.

How to subscribe: Enter your email, name, zip code, and a password to sign up. Then you’ll get restaurant deals emailed to you every week. When you see one you like, you have 24 hours to click on the “Get this special!” button to get your discount passcode. You must use that code within 30 days; just mention it to the restaurant’s host when you arrive.

Bonus: BlackboardEats will launch a New York edition in January.
