Don't want to add clutter to your friend's over-crowded apartments? Take a cue from our friend Dora who turned a present into an experience by treating us to the prix fix at one of Brooklyn's nicest restaurants. We had a great time, got to try a place we wouldn't have otherwise, and didn't empty her bank account. And if you're worried your gift won't last long enough to be remembered, bring your camera and give your friend copies of the pictures.
(Worried about how to issue the invitation without getting stuck paying for a friend's three course dinner by mistake? Just be very specific. Our email from Dora read, "Patois is one of the nicest restaurants in Brooklyn, but they have a very affordable prix fix I want to treat you guys to.")

I'm so happy you guys enjoyed it! As I said to Georgia, "I could have spent $120 on a fancy pot at crate and barrel, or I could take you to a fancy experience we normally can't afford." The meal was truly wonderful.
