2010 A La Card Restaurants Announced!

If you are not familiar with the A La Card, you should take a moment to check out their website (www.alacardchicago.com). Each card in this 52 card deck features a $10 coupon to a different non-corporate, chef-owned restaurant in the city of Chicago.  The deck retails for $30 and is good for one year.  Last year, I saw the return on investment within the first couple of months - after just three uses, you have made your money back!  Also, $1 per deck is donated to Common Threads - a non-profit organization that educates children on the importance of nutrition and physical well-being.

See the website to pre-order your 2010 deck (or purchase the 2009 deck for only $10).  The full list of 2010 restaurants was just published and is listed to the left.
