The economy sucks, but because of it, restaurant bargains abound. A few weeks ago, I told you about
Savannah extending its $10 meal deals indefinitely (except for the
Savannah in Costa Mesa, which is
now closed). Then there's
Hamamori with their discounted omakase meals that are priced lower than it has ever been.
Now I got wind that
Kimera in Irvine is offering what they call their
"Spring Savings" Mondays, where all items are marked down 50% from 5 p.m.-9 p.m.
There is some fine print, like how they tack on an 18% gratuity automatically on all bills PRIOR to taking the 50% off discount, which is fair, because you know people are going to try to tip on the discounted amount, which would make for angry waiters -- and who wants that?!
Also, there's a possibility that the management can exclude items from the 50% offer...but as they say: you can't have your cake and eat it too.
What does that saying even mean anyway? Why have a cake if you can't eat it?
