Give the gift of Chicago food!

For Christmas, I received a wonderful gift idea and wanted to share it with everyone. A la card Chicago is a deck of 52 cards each highlighting a restaurant where you will receive $10 off your meal. You can purchase the decks online here or at participating stores and truly the only restriction is that they are only valid in 2010. The best part of all is that this little gem retails for only $30! ($1 per deck is donated to Common Threads) That’s $520 worth of coupons and essentially you only need to go out to eat at least three times this year to make it worthwhile. Not to mention there are so many great restaurants on the list that I’ve wanted to try. This is a perfect gift for anyone - especially for me since this goes perfectly with my NYE resolution to try a new Chicago establishment (bar/restaurant/shop/anything) each week. 52 restaurants in 52 weeks - I think I'm up for the challenge.


Here are the restaurants included in a la card:
