After a long day at work, you know what's nice? Alcohol. You know what else is nice? Not having to decide what to eat. Which is why we love a comparatively easier prix fixe menu. And with that, BlackboardEat will offer $65 and $55 at 25 Lusk and Bourbon Steak, respectively. On Thursday, 8/18, they're announcing a six-course prix fixe at 25 Lusk for $65 that's centered around a strawberries and champagne theme. Sexy! And then, next Tuesday, they will have a three-course prix fixe menu at Michael Mina's joint for a comparatively scant $55 featuring loads of meat. Manly!
Also, signup is free. No having to give a credit card number right off the bat, etc. etc. (This is not a Mobile Spinach debacle! We called each restaurant to double-check.)
