Yummmm...Great Deal

I just came back from dinner with my daughter and have to share what I think is an amazing deal. I know, I know...I should not be going out to eat when I am living in abject poverty, but with a deal this good, I just can't resist. Also, I had to walk up to the post office to send some things I sold on EBay (my car is in the shop - AGAIN), and the local PO is right next to the restaurant.

So, for your Columbus-odites, La Chatelaine restaurants (I am in no way affiliated) have happy hour between 4-7pm Monday through Friday. To me this means half off appetizers, which includes my favorite: L'assiette de Fromage. Usually $8.75, it is Brie, Roquefort and Swiss cheeses served with sliced bread and grapes. A delicious and substantial summer meal. So, my daughter and I get to indulge for around $4.40.

Since I usually only eat about half, I take the rest to go with a white baguette (only $1.95 - I think that's cheaper than Kroger), so I can have a second meal out of it. If you happen to be imbibing (it is a happy hour deal), they have $3 off bottles of wine, $1 off glasses of wine and $4 martinis.

La Chatelaine has some other delicious food to eat at happy hour or not - you can find their menu here: http://www.lachatelainebakery.com/  I think they have Worthington, Dublin and Upper Arlington locations.

NOTE:  Make sure you tip your servers well!  You are getting a great deal, so don't let the people that wait on you suffer.
