Christmas Gift Ideas from EatDrinkDeals

Raleigh, NC, December 17, 2022 --(PR.com)-- EatDrinkDeals has been discovering and publishing food and drink deals every day since 2008. In addition to restaurant coupons, daily deals, and happy hour specials, this holiday season EatDrinkDeals is offering gift ideas for the special someone on your list who loves dining out.

Restaurant Gift Cards
An easy and much-appreciated gift is a restaurant gift card. Who wouldn't love to get a gift card from a favorite restaurant like Cheesecake Factory, Outback or Red Lobster? Plus, during the Holidays many restaurants give you a bonus card to add to your gift.

"Some of our favorite cards are from Cheesecake Factory, which gives you a $15 bonus card for every $50 gift card, and Red Lobster, which gives you two $10 bonus cards with a $50 purchase," said Matt Arnold, editor and publisher of EatDrinkDeals.

"Other chains have great deals, too, like Bonefish Grill and Outback, which give you a $10 bonus with every $50 gift card."

You can find a roundup of gift card deals on the EatDrinkDeals.com home page, or you can go to the website for your favorite restaurant. Most restaurant chains have instant, online e-gift cards that you can print and mail, or just send instantly via email.

Restaurant Cookbooks
If your gift recipient has a favorite restaurant or chef, you might be able to find an official or unofficial cookbook with recipes for their most popular dishes.

From unique places like Antoine's in New Orleans to chains like First Watch and McCormick & Schmick's, there are many restaurant cookbooks available, said Arnold.

Find one you want by browsing the Restaurant Recipe Cookbooks article at EatDrinkDeals, or Google "cookbook + the name of your favorite place." The EatDrinkDeals article is at https://www.eatdrinkdeals.com/restaurant-recipe-cookbooks/

Check your favorite restaurant for classes, or check Sur La Table, which often has classes.

A Christmas Day Dinner
"The final gift idea from EatDrinkDeals is to simply take your favorite someone out to dinner on Christmas Day," said Arnold.

Restaurants open this Christmas Day run the gamut from simple homestyle places like Denny's, to casual dining chains like Macaroni Grill, all the way to fine dining places like The Palm and Ruth's Chris Steak House. Many places have special menus for Christmas.
