Birthday freebies at 24 LI restaurants

It's your birthday, it's your birthday ... or, soon enough anyway, it shall be.

So why not scrore some free food on your special day?

Plenty of restaurants offer complimentary eats, from appetizers to desserts, drinks to gift certificates.

Most spots require a simple (and free) registration in an email club, and from there you can get a free molten chocolate cake at Chili's ... sundae at Friendy's ... burger at Smashburger ... and much, much more. (App users, click on the link above to see the list.)
