It's a way for a restaurant to attract customers during times that usually are considered quiet by setting up a special menu (often including dishes that are not in their usual a-la-carte menu) on usually special discounted prices.usually its a set menu of 2 or 3 courses on which u wont have much choice as to the dishes. such quiet time might be 5-7pm which, if the restaurant is in a vicinity of a theatre, is a perfect time to enjoy a meal before heading off to the show.

The first thing that comes to mind is old people! And there is only two kinds of old people crazy or mean.

it's probably a good dinner but not as heavy as a regular dinner. early bird refers to eating dinner early. if you ate lunch at 12:00 then you probably not as hungry at 5 or 6 as you would be at 7 or 8. it also implies that you are going to probably get a little something to eat again after the show. it's like splitting regular dinner into 2 small seperate dinners

"Early bird" menu is a selection of cheap meals. Usually associated with pensioners/seniors (they like to eat early; hence, "early bird").

Yes. basics, be creative. a very good chicken you can e-mail me for because i won't put it online : ) trust me i'm a self taught cook and it's good!

They are just trying to get you into there restaurant in the Early part of the evening when they are not very busy
I don1t know about you i could not sit in a theatre for the best part of 3 hours after having a meal in a restaurant i would prefer go out after the show.
In the west end of London they call them theatre meal's, tell the waiter and they will have you in and out by 7.30 in time for the show
Normally its just a main course and a desert and just the one bottle of vino

Early Bird menu usually means a selection of dishes from the main menu but at a reduced price at an earlier time so they get people in early to avoid the rush at peak times.

There are also nice older people who smile alot

:)

It depends on where you are going. If you are in a major metro area you are probably the pretheatre patron eating before the theatre. The problem is that you are going to get full of carbs and be too tired to totally enjoy your show. If you are in a less metro area, the restaurant is probably catering to seniors. Since many seniors live on a fixed income it's a nice way for them to enjoy eating out without breaking the bank. Generally it's between 4 - 6 pm, before a traditional, working family can get to a restaurant. The company is trying to make some money when it would generally be empty.

Why not go with fondue. I is very social. You could have cheese fondue, broth based for cooking meats and veg., and chocolate. That way it is fun and social, but not completely filling.
