On Thursday, the LA Times Food section had an article titled Want To Dine For Less? Say The Word about a website called BlackboardEats.com. BlackboardEats offers Los Angeles and New York diners discounts to some of LA's & NY's finest and trendiest Restaurants.
Here's how it works:
- Go to the website and enter your email address to sign up
- You'll be asked for your name, your email address and your zip code
- Twice per week you'll receive an email newsletter offering an exclusive dining deal at NY or LA restaurants
- You have 24 hours to respond to the email, at which time they'll send you a special code
- You have 30 days during which the code will be valid, to go to the restaurant
The past deals looked pretty awesome, and I'm really sorry I missed them. I would have loved to get 30% off at Mozza2Go or Ammo on Highland.
The deals are "curated" by former Zagat & Gourmet Magazine editors. The service was started by former Yahoo.com Food Editor Maggie Nemser.Thank you, thank you, thank you, Maggie!
Right now subscriptions are free. I signed up and I can't wait to see what great restaurant deals they'll have on offer in their next newsletter.
UPDATE: I just received an email from Maggie, thanking me for writing about BlackboardEats. For all you San Francisco and Las Vegas foodies, hang tight. Here's what Maggie had to say:
Thank you SO much for the shout out and I am thrilled that you like BBE. We are launching in SF soon and will be in Vegas soon after. Thanks again for the support.

Great share-I sent this to my son and daughter in law who live in Los Angeles and travel to NY for business frequently. Thank you Michelle!!
Michelle, I'm going to sign up right now! I love dining in NYC and am there so often that I can hopefully get to some wonderful places I have missed in my travels! Thank you!
Cathy Lee: I'm glad your son & DIL can use this. I can't wait to see what the deals are. BTW, will you be coming to our LA Stager Meet-up on March 26? I chose that date because you said you would be in LA then:o)
Carole: I'm going to be in NJ/NY in June. Maybe we can try one of the NY restaurants.
Michelle....hope they add SF to their offers!! THANKS as I may be coming (back home) to LA later this year to visit with family and take a road trip down memory lane(s) with my daughter!!
Kathy B: I imagine they will be in SF eventually, since SF is such a foodie city. Let me know when you come to LA so we can meet up.
With all the choices in LA and NYC this is a great way to stay on top of the trendy scene!
Renee: Maybe they'll start offering Vegas restaurants as well.
