This year I'm going to book early because the good ones fill up pretty quick. I want to go to a nice steak house restaurant this year.

It was fun last year, so many yummy places.

gianttama 01-01-2009 02:52 PM

Peanut Butter Jelly Time! 01-01-2009 03:13 PM

that is true the prices are now 18, 28 and 38... which still isn't too too bad

Durrann1984 01-01-2009 11:13 PM

$3 is still a lot to me haha

gianttama 01-01-2009 11:15 PM

I'm curious if the economic downturn will have an effect on Dine Out this year.

For myself, I've been going to 2-4 each year and plan to do the same again.

411ken 01-02-2009 02:31 PM

Which ones from last year did you guys try and recommend? what did you have

LongDongSilver 01-02-2009 02:37 PM

I think that there are a number of factors that will lead to lower Dine Out sales this year. The economy is one, the other is that Dine Out has really gone off track from its purpose. It originally featured great restaurants offering creative menus at decent prices. Now Dine Out is flooded with mediocre restaurants offering regular menu items at near normal pricing.

BTW by Dine Out sales, I mean by sales figures, not just implied attendance from how busy the restaurants seem.

if you check some of the mediocre restuarants' menu, it might be much cheaper eating on a regular night that dine out event

if you are going dine out vancouver, you better choose the expensive resturants on a regular basis..

you get the best deal on them.

It's really fun to do, but some seem like overly enthusiastic people lol.....which bugs me.

psycho17 01-04-2009 04:09 PM

Well it's like they've never fucking been in a restaurant before, taking pictures and yelling.. it's ridiculous.

Peanut Butter Jelly Time! 01-04-2009 06:19 PM

tonnes of people do that now though... especially the taking pictures part.. that i can handle... the yelling not so much.

appropriate behaviour at appropriate places i guess. if you act like a 12 year old at elixir then that won't go over too well with anyone.

ahah.. i know exactly what you're talking about,
(^__^)V

and it's not called the "peace sign."

"V" is refered as "victory."

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I am not a honger!

ah_cat 01-04-2009 11:05 PM

why the heck would hongers express "victory" at the dinner table?
i don't even think hongers use that to express victory, but it's just a honger thing to do.
"one, two fweee.... cheeeeeese!!!!"

sorry, back on topic. it is now Jan. 5th, and I want dibs on making resos NOW b/c they said Jan5th! *shakes fist*

orange7 01-04-2009 11:05 PM

where does it says the dine-out menu for each specific restaurant?

ah_cat 01-04-2009 11:07 PM

^ it's not up yet :(
i'm refreshing the page every min..
i'm such a loser

orange7 01-04-2009 11:07 PM

I want to try Belgian food, but there is only 1 choice, and I don't want to go there.

orange7 01-04-2009 11:27 PM
