Andy — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 14:07:06 +0000

It’s not often that we see restaurants the likes of Dylan Prime (62 Laight St in Tribeca) taking to the daily deal sites, so we’d be remiss not to let you know about this deal being offered today on LivingSocial from one of our favorite steakhouses in town. It’s the standard pay $50 for $100 worth of food and drink.

The small print: Limit one per person, additional as gifts • Limit one per table per visit • Dine-in only (not valid for takeout or delivery) • Reservations required and subject to availability • Other conditions apply • PROMOTIONAL VALUE EXPIRES ON November 23, 2011

And while you’re at it, check out the new “Instant Deals” section of LivingSocial with restaurant and bar offers for certain times of the day, including this one from Bice ($15 for $30 worth of food & drink between 2-4pm).

Win Dinner for 2 With Us at Tree Bistro & Garden in East Village

Andy — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 15:00:38 +0000

It’s your turn to be “wined and dined”! Scoutmob is helping Jill and I take one lucky (or not so lucky depending what you think about us) reader and their guest to dinner at Tree Bistro & Garden (190 1st Avenue) in the East Village. With springtime approaching (oh yeah, don’t forget to set those clocks forward an hour come Saturday night), the garden patio at Tree is one secret outdoor spot you need to know about. Not to mention the superb French bistro fare and equally superb wine list, to boot. I’m still dying to try Tree’s Linguini With Clams And Mussels In Saffron Broth which was featured on the ‘Obsessions’ episode of Food Network’s show The Best Thing I Ever Ate. To enter to win dinner with us, just follow this link and sign up for Scoutmob (“join the nyc mob”). And while you’re there, snap up a totally free discount for 50% off Tree.

Today’s Free Scoutmob Deal for 50% Off at Matilda Tuscan & Mexican Cuisine Benefits the Movember Foundation

Andy — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 17:06:11 +0000

Here’s a win-win if I’ve ever seen one. Scoutmob, one of our local go-to deal sites (cause it’s free and I don’t have to feel like I wasted money when I forget to use a coupon), is offering a free 50% off deal to Matilda Tuscan & Mexican Cuisine in the East Village (647 E. 11th St.; 212-777-3355). Matilda is the Tuscan-meets-Mexican brainchild of a married couple who is one half of Tuscan background and one half of Mexican background. And thus Tusc-Mex was born. Think guacamole served with oven roasted focaccia, bruschetta with tomato and jicama, gnocchi with a basil-cilantro pesto…you get the idea. What makes today’s deal extra special (in addition to introducing you to a unique East Village restaurant you probably haven’t come across) is that Scoutmob will be donating half of today’s deal revenue toward the Movember Foundation benefiting prostate cancer and every person that uses the coupon grows the pot. So you can try a new cuisine and help raise money to fight men’s cancer. Want more details? Check out Scoutmob’s blog post.

Andy — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 18:33:47 +0000

Word just came in that a new NYC-based deal site (yes, another one) that goes by the name Tenka launched a new “Eat Free Week” campaign today. The best part is there’s really no catch here. All you need is a smartphone and a Facebook account (even if you don’t have one, you can set up a phantom one). The only real catch, I guess, is that there is a limited quantity of these freebies available. Here are the 6 Free deals Tenka is offering:

Free Falafel and drink @ Mamouns (94 used, 50 remaining)
Free Belgian Fries and Special Sauce @ Pommes Frites (130 used, 50 remaining)

As we’re all recovering from Memorial Day Weekend bbq’s and partying, here’s some good bbq news. Char No. 4 (196 Smith Street b/n Baltic and Warren), the whiskey bar and restaurant in Carroll Gardens that boasts over 150 American whiskeys as well as some damn fine lamb pastrami, smoked brisket and chopped pork, is hosting a Barbeque every Wednesday night between now and Labor day.
