Bay Area Deals: $10 Giants Tickets, 33% Off Michelin-starred Restaurant

I received an email from TravelZoo this morning with a a bunch of local Bay Area deals - in case you're interested here's the full list over on their website. From the email, there were two deals that piqued my interest - their matching algorithms must be working well, since they captured two of my biggest interests, sports and food:

  • The weather in the Bay Area couldn't be more perfect these days, so it's a great opportunity to catch a Giants game. The deal gets you up to 50% off of regular-priced tickets for upcoming games against the Dodgers, White Sox, and Phillies. Tickets are bookable through the SF Giants website, using code SUMMER, through July 25th. Here's the full details on the deal as well as instructions on how to book:

Giants vs. Dodgers -- Friday, July 25 at 7:15 p.m. & Sunday, July 27 at 5:07 p.m. (Orange Sunglasses Day)
  • $60-$65 (reg. $82.25-$89.25) ... View Reserve Infield

  • Another great deal is for 33% off at the Michelin-starred Chez TJ located in Mountain View, CA. This has been on my to-eat list for quite some time, and is a great opportunity to try it out at a reduced price. There are three different tasting menu options, all of which have been discounted. Also, note the fine print below which states that the deal is not valid on Saturdays, and must be booked via phone.
