Date ideas › Under $20
A date for two under $20
Everything here costs two people $20 or less. Per-person prices are doubled; per-dish places are counted at one dish each, which is the least you could spend, so budget a little more there.
Pair any of them with something free (a park, a waterfront, a museum if you are a citizen or PR) and a whole evening stays under $20.
