British Airways Visa NYC Michelin Promotion and a Chance to Dine with TPG
The cards we feature here are from partners who compensate us when you are approved through our site, and this may impact how or where these products appear. We don’t cover all available credit cards, but our analysis, reviews, and opinions are entirely from our editorial team. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Please view our advertising policy and product review methodology for more information.

I, like many of you, got in on the British Airways 100,000 mile bonus this spring and I recently received an interesting NYC dining promotion, which sparked my interest:

"Use your British Airways Visa® Card at any NYC MICHELIN Guide 2011 star-rated restaurant today through October 1, 2011. Dine once and receive a $50 statement credit. Dine twice and receive another $50 statement credit for a total of $100. Minimum purchase of $50 each time you dine.1"

I've been on a contest kick lately and I've also gotten the chance to meet up with several TPG readers (which have all turned into really interesting conversations), so I thought I'd take advantage of this promo and invite a reader to lunch or dinner at one of the one star restaurants in NYC. I love you all, but I'm not splurging on a thousand dollar meal at Per Se!

Here's how to win: I've selected the restaurant I want to go to, so you have to make one guess from the list (below). You can enter a total of two times - once in the comments section of this post and once via Twitter, follow me and then Tweet me @thepointsguy and include your restaurant guess and include hashtag #dinewithTPG.

Enter by Sunday August 7, 2011 at 11:59pm Eastern Time. You don't have to be NYC based, but I will not pay for transportation, so you'll have to find a way to be here on a day when I'm in NYC and before this promo ends on October 1, 2011. If multiple people guess the right restaurant, I'll choose a random winner.

Good luck! Make your guess from the following restaurants...
