"At a time when we find it hard to disconnect — even for a moment, from our electronic devices — we felt that allowing our guests an opportunity on this special day to give their full, undivided attention to their significant other without being distracted by texts, calls and social media notifications, would be wonderful," SOMO’s James Morrissey said. "Imagine that, two people just talking to each other during an entire romantic dinner, and then being rewarded for that by receiving $5 off the bill!"
