South Florida is a mecca for dining out with a fabulous variety of cuisine from traditional American grill, to Cuban flavors, to Asian fusion, incredible seafood and so much more.

Even better, is a website dedicated to offering special HALF PRICE certificates to many new and popular restaurants throughout South Florida. Recession or not, this is a terrific deal, a great value!

Introducing SouthFloridaDines.com! I recently discovered this website and was pleasantly surprised the participating restaurants included both high end restaurants and some of my favorites. For example, right now, they are offering certificates to Miss Yip ($75 cert for $37.50), Berries in the Grove ($30 Cert for $15), and La Bodega Peruvian restaurant ($30 cert for $15). The restaurants constantly change and supplies are limited so if you see a restaurant you like, I recommend buying the certificate immediately. 

I purchased one for Miss Yip in South Beach and my experience was positive. The transaction was smooth and easy. I just had to pay for gratuity apart on my credit card as was clearly explained in the instructions before purchasing.  A great feature is the ability to print the certificate the second you purchase it. The processing fee is a reasonable $1.25 so it's best to purchase more than one certificate at checkout.
Be sure to read the restrictions carefully so you know what to expect and they may differ. For example, if you are going with a group of friends, only one certificate may be used per table and can not be combined with other offers. At Miss Yip they add an 18% gratuity, although you have the right to change it.

You may have heard of another restaurant website, http://www.restaurants.com/  The concept is similar for restaurants nationwide however they charge more for processing and they only mail the certificate so you have to wait a few days. I found that SouthFloridaDines.com has better deals and participating restaurants for the South Florida area.

So if the recession has pinched your dining out excursions, you definitely want to take advantage of SouthFloridaDines.com. Visit the site now and get an additional 15% discount now through Sunday by entering promo code: FABULOUS.

Buen provecho!
