Winterlicious Prix-Fixe Fine Dining (GTA)—Now Extended to February 28!
February 13 Update: This popular promo has been extended another two weeks! Winterlicious will now end February 28, 2009.
Updated January 13: You can now get the early jump on bookings if you are an American Express cardholder! Bon appetit!
Originally Posted January 7: It's that time of the year again! The perennially popular Winterlicious Event in the Toronto area runs from January 30 to February 12. For those of you unfamiliar with Winterlicious, it's an opportunity to sample some fine cuisine at great, fixed prices. Tons of hot Toronto restaurants participate. You'll be able to select from 3-course menus with $15, $20 or $30 lunches and $25, $35 or $45 dinners.
Restaurants will begin accepting reservations beginning January 15 for seatings between January 30 - February 12, 2009. This is your chance to have high end, 3 course meal for as little as $15.
If you've got an American Express credit card, you can get to the "front of the line" -- advance reservations will be accepted on January 13 and 14. Not an AMEX cardholder? Check out the selection of American Express cards in our credit store. With an American Express card, you get Front of the Line access to big events (like concerts and Winterlicious), as well as other Everyday rewards.

Just curious, does anyone know what kind of savings we’ll see? I don’t normally eat at these places, so i’m wondering if these are huge deals (like 50% off).
For instance, the $15 lunch, how much would that normally be?

Does anyone notice a substantial price increase this year?

Yes, I noticed that the dinners cost $45 now when they used to cost $35. I can’t believe this price increase during the recession now. I don’t think as many people would end up going because of this price increase.
About deals, I’ve only been to Winter/Summer-licious once and never have been back. Personally, I don’t find these a deal at all. Mostly they serve you basic/simple dishes and never the restaurants’ signature dishes.
Moreover, I have a hunch that the Winter/Summer-licious time is the time when all the big chefs go on vacations, leaving the apprentices in-training and repeating the same small menu everyday.
Hence, I never go anymore.

I also noticed the price increases. I think it’s absolutely pathetic that they are doing this now in light of everything else going on with the economy.
Every single time I go to Winter/Summerlicious I end up spending more on wine/drinks than on the actual meal. Extra $10 and I will just go somewhere else and not be limited by the Prix Fixe menu.
Good job f*cking up a perfectly good program.
To the poster who said the big chefs on vacation, I couldn’t tell you, but, the food quality has been on par or better than the regular menu. Reason being that it’s their chance to get repeat biz.

This will see out and most of the “good” places are not taking anymore weekend bookings. An extra $10 isnt a huge deal

It’s different for every restaurant, please look at those participating. Some dinners are only $25 and these are AMAZING restaurants.
