Normally readers, I would never suggest that you support chain restaurants in lieu of local businesses.

That is unless a nearby chain featured the best deal ever!

Donna and I took our men over to Johnny Carino’s in the Clifton Commons the other night for their two for $19.99 special.

That’s right; two people receive unlimited soup or salad, an entrée (from an abbreviated but tasty menu) and get to split a ginormous dessert – all for less than 20 bucks.

Our waiter assured us that the deal was valid all day/night – 7 days a week but wasn’t sure how long the special would last. According to their website, it’s still going.

So eat cheap while you can. It’s a great way to catch up with friends on you tight holiday budget!
