New York, New York - Swanky Restaurant for Manhattians
By metropolitanmama | April 7, 2008
If you live in NYC or Manhattan, you’re fortunate to have a wide array of options for dates with your spouse. After all, you have the MET, Broadway, Central Park, Carnegie Hall, and tons of ritzy restaurants to choose from. You also have the Bruno Jamais Restaurant Club, which promises to “bring the French Riviera to the upper east side.” The restaurant - known for its delectable cuisine, its impressive decor, and its outstanding service - is located between Madison and Fifth, in the heart of Manhattan. If you decide to make a reservation for Sunday, you’ll be delighted to find that there is a reduced-price menu on that day - and don’t worry about calling to see if they’re open late - they’re open until 2:00am on Sundays, 3:00am on the other nights of the week.
If you live in or around the Manhattan area or if you will be visiting there in the near future, you might want to check out this “sexy, glamorous, and fun environment.” You even have a chance to win a $50 gift card below.
If, however, you are like me and you hail from a slightly less star-studded city than the Big Apple (Come on - I know you’re out there. Speak up and represent your city…), don’t worry! I’ve got something for you too.
I know you will want to look “radiant” for your night (or day) out with your spouse. One winner will receive three products from the luxury skincare line by Sothys Paris (valued at $114). The Active-Contour™ Tensor Gel leaves you with a “tense and radiant look” (what exactly is a “tense” look?). The Active-Contour™ Hydra-Cream “revitalizes and remodels your skin and minimizes under-eye shadows and wrinkles.” The Active-Contour™ Destressing Mask “helps remove bags under the eyes.”
So whether you’re looking for a fun night out in NYC or a way to rejuvenate your skin to prep for a date in your little ‘ol city, I’ve got you covered.
Disclaimer #1: I haven’t eaten at Bruno Jamias, although I would jump at the chance if I lived on the east coast.
Disclaimer #2: I haven’t tried the Sothys products either so whoever wins will have to fill us in on what they think.
WIN IT! One winner will receive a $50 gift card to the Bruno Jamais Restaurant Club, A second winner will receive the three products listed above from Sothys Paris. To enter, simply leave a comment stating which prize is your preference on this post prior to Monday, April 14 at midnight (don’t forget to follow the rules). The winner will be announced and contacted on Tuesday, April 15. * Winner must provide a U.S. mailing address.
*UPDATE* The winner of the Sothys Paris prize pack is #66 Denise B. and the winner of the $50 gift card to the Bruno Jamais Restaurant Club is #9 Noreen. Congratulations!

Lol, I laughed when I saw your comment, “What exactly is a ‘tense’ look?” because I was thinking the same thing; don’t I want to be relaxed that night, not tense?
Anyway, as I’m here in Arizona, I’d like to win the Sothys Paris products. Thanks!
April 7th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
I don’t know that I need to look tense and radiant, but getting rid of those under eye shadows sounds great. Next time I head to New York, I’ll try to get a buyer to pay for dinner there and Fed-ex you something delicious and “ship-able”! I would take either prize though, as long as the gift card doesn’t expire (and they don’t go under!) we’ll be in New York within a year again!
April 7th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
Wow, this is certainly a very glamorous giveaway! Probably too high class for a hippie-mountain-town gal like me, but I’d be happy to try my hand at looking glamorous with the Southys products!
April 7th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
I really would love the second prize, I loved reading about your love for your hubby. I need to put a little magic back in my relationship! This might help:)
April 7th, 2008 at 9:46 pm
The gift card sounds great ,but I live in Florida.
So, I would love to win the Sothys Paris products.
Thanks for hosting this great giveaway!
April 7th, 2008 at 9:47 pm
Forgot to leave my e-mail it is grayjones5 at yahoo dot com. Sorry.
April 7th, 2008 at 9:59 pm
I would like either as we plan on a trip to NY soon and if we don’t make it I have a good friend (or my daughter’s godfather) I could pass it on to as they live there
April 7th, 2008 at 11:16 pm
I would love to go to the restaurant but live far away in a different state so count me in on the second prize. I would love to win the Sothys Paris products. Thanks for the great give away!

I LOVE trying out new restaurants, and we are lucky enough to have date night fairly regularly. Been a while since we visited NY though, even with the family we have out there. But hey, this would add to our list of good reasons to visit! Thanks.
April 8th, 2008 at 9:08 am
I would love to win the Sothys giftset, since I don’t plan on being in New York any time soon. Sounds like a great restaurant though!
April 8th, 2008 at 9:19 am

Sadly, with a newborn (not that having a newborn is sad!) I don’t get too much time to pay any attention to my skin care regimen and I do believe it’s showing. I’d love to try out the Sothys Paris products and see what they can do to this sleep deprived face of mine!

Hey, am I actually suppose to do something with my face? It’s been so long I can’t rememeber! I used to have a great skin care line I used on a regular basis (La Therapie)but haven’t had the time (or money)to sit down and get more (for, like, 2 years! Ironically, my oldest is 2 1/2!)What a treat it would be to be able to pamper myself a little!
April 13th, 2008 at 7:08 pm
I would prefer the Sothys prize. I am looking looking into skincare products and would love to try out this line.
April 13th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
