If there’s one thing that stops my family from ordering all the seafood dishes we want at a restaurant, it would be the hefty price tags that come with them. But that’s not gonna hold us back at our next family feast, ‘cause there’s an upcoming flash sale that’ll let us get up to 50% off at more than 20 restaurants!
Mark your calendar now, as The Chope Shop, Chope’s e-commerce initiative, is putting a whole lotta restaurant vouchers up for grabs at their 16-hour EPIC Birthday Flash Sale that’s happening from 8am to 11:59pm on 15 June 2017. The online sale is open to all Visa cardholders, and lets you snag $50 and $100 restaurant vouchers at $25 and $70 respectively. Of course, the laws of auntie-hood dictate that I gotta pick the best deals of the lot, so I’m going straight for those seafood lobangs!
The Boiler serves fresh seafood in bags to ensure everything is evenly coated in a tasty sauce. The seafood here is done Louisiana-style, and you can pick from four sauces – Garlic Butter, Peppa’ Butter, Sauce of the Month, and The Works, which offers three levels of spiciness.
For casual date nights, go for Boiler’s Duo Bag (U.P. $52++ for two). This heavy bag includes prawns, clams, mussels, sausages, corn, and pan-fried buns. If you’re heading down with your full squad, Boiler’s Bombdiggity Bag (U.P. $149++) contains a larger portion of everything in Boiler’s Duo Bag and it also comes with a crab!
