During my freshman year of high school, I had a history teacher named Miss Shoemaker who (gasp) dared to give us multiple projects at once. Â As 14-year-olds, we couldn’t believe it. Â She was the “meanest teacher ever” and I spent a lot of time complaining about her to my friends, parents, and relatives. Â I remember […]

Spend quality time with your son or daughter… dish together at Let’s Dish!  While children 8+ are welcome to join you at any Let’s Dish! session (subject to a few health and safety conditions, below), many parents prefer our specially marked Parent/Kid(8+) sessions, where there are likely to be special snacks and games, as well […]

Last spring, my friends and I spent hundreds of dollars at restaurants and take-out on vacation. We didn’t realize we could save over $30 a day by bringing great-tasting, family-friendly meals from Let’s Dish!  Here’s the story:
Spending a long weekend away was exactly what we needed, but we didn’t want to go broke doing so! Excitedly, the four of […]

I use my outdoor grill year round. I use it because I like the grilled flavor it adds to the food and, maybe more importantly, I use it because I embrace the concept of minimal mess. Why use a pot on the stovetop or a pan in the oven when I don’t have to? Many […]

OK – so I have a friend (working mom with 2 kids – she and her husband travel a ton for work) who I have been trying to get to Let’s Dish! for 4 years. For her 40th, a friend and I gave her a Let’s Dish! Gift Card. Screaming and kicking and complaining, she […]

If you’re like most moms I know, you’ve resolved to (1) put healthier food on the dinner table, (2) reduce the outflow of household dollars, and/or (3) be more involved with the kids.  Luckily, I have one tip that will allow you to do all three. […]

December 25th. Whatever you are celebrating this day or this season, we hope you are enjoying some downtime with friends and family.
Our stores are closed today (although, pssst, you can still buy gift cards online in case you forgot someone!) so the 250+ employees of Let’s Dish! can spend the day with their loved ones. […]

Most of us owe a whole lot to our parents and grandparents. They raised us and provided for us and so sometimes it’s nice to give back. We’ve realized that Let’s Dish! can help with that.
Since we opened in 2004, we’ve had a loyal following of seniors who truly adore our product. They typically split […]

I’ve been thinking about Let’s Dish! math and the cost per meal. Let me start by sharing the fact that in this economy, I have become scrooge. I am now buying my kids clothes only when the pants become too short or too small or if a change in season demands different clothes. I go […]

Many college kids eat a lot of day-old pizza and hot dogs and other questionable fare.  But it doesn’t have to be that way.  In the 4 years Let’s Dish! has been open, we’ve noticed a clear trend: Let’s Dish! food being consumed by college students.  Typically, the parents buy the food for their son or daughter […]

As you know, we get tons of feedback each month. One common request has been for us to offer 4, 8 or 12 ”half-meals” at a Let’s Dish! session. Unlike traditional “splitting”, where dishers get two of each half-sized meal, “halving” (so to speak) would provide more variety by allowing dishers to make just one half (not […]

Judging by the popularity of our Parent/Kid sessions, we knew we were onto something. But even we were surprised and delighted to find we’d been “secret shopped” by Joyce Hesselberth of the popular “Kid Baltimore” blog. “Restaurant-quality food”, she wrote after bringing her daughter to dish on July 31st; “directions are super clear, […]

Not us, that’s for sure. You’ll now find on our menus a greater selection […]
You know about DishRewards.
