Fine Dining On A Budget
If you are thinking of ways of making any day a special one for you and your loved one
, a great fine dining meal will often do the trick. And what could be better than going to a fine dining restaurant and feasting out on a sumptuous dinner. However, not a lot of people would, in fact, not be very keen with this one.
Why is that so? Let's face it, whenever a lot of people hear the phrase fine dining, an expensive restaurant is always the first one that comes up to their. And as it is, this is actually the truth, as a lot of high class restaurants today do come with the hefty price tag. What more, with the way the economy is going nowadays, it seems that a night out in out in a classy restaurant with be too much for your pocket.
But that does mean that you can forget taking your partner out for dinner. In fact, this would definitely be a good gift that you can give him or her, even without adding the more expensive ones. And if your are tight on the budget, here's a few tips that can make the experience more worthwhile.
First, you need to find a good restaurant. This one is actually very easy since there are a lot of small restaurants nowadays that offer fine dining at regular meal prices (no kidding really). Also, a lot of the classier establishments are now offering menus that ordinary people can afford, and still in a fine dining setting. One good example is Michael's On Naples in Long Beach. They offer a wide assortment of Italian menus at very reasonable prices. And what more, the restaurant setting is very applicable for a fine dining experience.
Now that you have chosen a restaurant for your date, then it's time for you to get your reservation. Best tip for you here would be to avoid peak hours and instead opt for an earlier time, say 6:30 or 7 pm. This not only gets you discounts on certain menus, but will also get you away from all the crowd during peak times. Also, while a romantic dinner might be, well, romantic, you can also opt for lunch instead. Some restaurants actually offer lower rates during lunchtime, since this is often not a peak period.
Lastly, pick the items that you would want in the menu carefully. A lot of fine dining restaurants often do not print prices in the menu, so you might want to chose carefully to avoid the shock of seeing the bill later.
There is actually a lot more for this one, but for now, just enjoy your meal and bon appetite!
