1-for-1 dining deals for dates with bae

---

As the adage goes, “A way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.” This rings true for my husband, as our dates are always centred around a hearty meal. While we don’t usually celebrate Valentine’s Day, we do make it a point to eat out at least once a month to simply reconnect. But with Maybank Cards’ 1-for-1 dining deals, we can now pak tor every week, as we save a bomb by paying for just one diner each time!
