If you will be in the Los Angeles area, at The Grove www.thegrovela.com, an upscale mall (they even have a concierge!) will be offering a great deal. For one month only, you can enjoy a 3-course dinner (including gratuity), a movie and parking for only $35 per person.

You can even sneak in a Valentine date as it lasts til Feb 19th – but you have to go during the week and Valentine’s Day is on a Saturday. You can even shop for a gift in the mall.

Enjoy an inexpensive night out and catch an Oscar nominated film. Reach the Concierge if you would like help with any of the arrangements

The California Lemonade chain has fabulously delicious, healthy, inexpensive, seasonal Southern California comfort food. You can choose a 3 or 2-plate meal for only $10. We love that pricing goes by portion size – you can get 1, 2, or 3 portions of each.

Start with the wildly creative salad bar (beets, tangerines, walnuts & onions or watermelon radish, ahi tuna & snap peas or Thai quinoa, cuke, red pepper, mango, peanuts & carrots). Sandwiches are called “right-sized” as they aren’t the gi-normous ones often found in US restaurants.

The hot section features some land and sea food (buttermilk chicken, red curry salmon, pot roast, BBQ brisket). Yes there are desserts and of course, as it’s name implies, 7 kinds of lemonade (ginger peach, blackberry thyme, cucumber mint) to wash it all down. Don’t skip the mac ‘n cheese (only $3.75) or the (yikes!) brussel sprouts.

This photo’s at LAX airport in the Delta departure lounge but there’s about a dozen of them all over LA.  California. They also have a yummy cookbook.
