Deal Feed: Amazing New Two-Course Lunch Menu at Chifa for $12.50

Chifa, Jose Garces’ restaurant serving a unique menu of Peruvian and Cantonese cuisines, has recently introduced a lunch menu with an amazing “Express Lunch” prix-fixe deal option.
With the “Express Lunch” deal, you get to choose two courses from a set list of menu items for a total price of $12.50. Meanwhile, a number of the items on the Express Lunch menu are, individually, in the $10 price range.
So depending on what you order, you could get two items that would normally cost upwards of $20 for a steal of a price at $12.50.
For example, by taking advantage of the Express Lunch offer, you could pick the Duck Salad for you first course (normally $11) and the Shrimp noodle bar for your second course (normally $11), and get them for a total of $12.50 instead of $22 if you ordered them individually.
That’s clearly a great deal.
Bonus: one of the lunch items to choose from is the recently introduced Chifa Burger, an 8 oz. burger with shiitake ketchup, charred scallions and cilantro mayo.
Sounds delicious.

Hmmm…they used to have the red curry available with a non-crab option. Did they get rid of that? If so: super bummer.
