I've driven by that place, I think. Looked kinda' interesting-- have you tried it by any chance? I gotta' check it out (and any, decent, place that gives the 20-miles-per-$.) Great deal if the food is decent-- and, of course, the booze all comes from the same bottle! Thanks!

Are you proposing a Flyertalk Dinner at such a place? A great idea!

Where and when?

What are they?!

We could fight with each-other over who gets to pay the check-- it will almost seem like we actually like one another (even though we both just want the bonus miles!) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Fed Planner: The restaurant in SAT is N"awlin's Creole Kitchen. It's at 2351 E. Commerce downtown. Maybe on the River Walk? The only reason I haven't gone to check it out is that we tend to go downtown only when we have time to kill.

Everyone else: I am signed up for the email notifications. I only get one or two a week. Now whether they sell the names to other businesses I don't know.

BTW: did you guys know that Idine's CS is now open til way late? Something like 11PM EST. Their agents are really great.

Be sure to make sure the restaurant exists. We tried going to the 20 mile / $ place in Palo Alto, CA and not only was it not there, it appeared that it hadn't been for some time.

The "All Asia Cafe" in Cambridge is right by my hotel. I will be giving it a try.

A bunch of flyertalkers sitting down getting 20 miles per dollar when the check is brought over to the table.

Count me in if something is planned.

I've been at Dinners where everyone gave their own credit card! Eleven pieces of plastic for ONE check!

Now that may fly ( pun intended) at Catman's
expensive places, Butt ry pulling that at a moderate to inexpensive I Dine establishment.

That All Asia place is supposed to be pretty gross, just a warning.

I live a few blocks away from the MIT hotel.

Actually since I was targeted for the NW double partner miles promo I can use my NW Visa and get 42 miles to the dollar! Unfortunately the partner double up is capped at 5,000 miles during the program, but for now not a bad deal.

My 3x promo is capped at 7,500 bonus miles; I treated the family to a $128 dinner last week at a 20/$ place. Idine already sent me the email that they'd awarded me 2,560 miles. I expect Northwest to poast an additional 5,210 to the account as well. Combined with my trip there the end of last month that netted $4100 total miles, I've completed the triple promo in two trips to the same restaurant. :-)

Uh oh, maybe I should stick with the hotel restaurant.

Ent, what are some good resturants near Hotel@MIT? idine or no idine...

I live very close to Hotel @MIT also. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif I would recommend Royal India (which is right across the street from All Asia). It has very good Indian food and happens to be on Idine too. And their $5.95 lunch buffet can't be beat.

I just noticed that one restaurant that had been listed as 20 miles is now coming up with 10. I wonder how long any of these restaurants will offer 20, if you have to check moments before you dine out to be sure...just what the deal is. Has any one else noticed this. It was Bar Celona Tapas in Chicago that changed.
