Grab the nieces and nephews--fixed
And look like the best aunts and uncles ever!!
Their parents will never know!
Ross Cummings says he is stunned by how popular his restaurant's "kids-eat-free" promotion is. "Parents love this stuff," says the manager of the Riverhead Ground Round, where a child gets a free meal with each adult entree. "Mom and Dad and two kids come in, and the kids eat free. That's why they come here. I'm shocked by how great the turnout is."
Call it "meal-deal appeal." Here are nine restaurants offering kids-eat-free promotions; some limitations apply.
