Finally after many meetings, letters and more with government and tourism officials I am happy to present to you the CANIRAC (restaurants association) Tijuana and Tecate Restaurant Discount Card. With this card you will receive atractive discounts at restaurants affiliated to the restaurants association that can range from 10% to 50% off your order. Here is a link to the list of the CANIRAC restaurants:

As an added value when you purchase the Restaurant discount card wich is good for the rest of 2009, you will also receive 2 (two) one time use Fast Track passes that will give you access to a special dedicated lane at the Tijuana / San Ysidro border crossing reducing your wait time to about 30 minutes or less.
Once you have your Restaurant Discount Card and your fast track passes just visit one of the great restaurants, enjoy a great meal, request your receipt and you are set. You will need to show that receipt at the Fast Track gate along with your Fast Track Pass and the officer will let you thru. We took a close look at many of the menus of the different restaurants featured, from Tortas to Baja Med, Sushi to Mole, Burritos to Chinese, Steaks to Lobster and we found that an average bill for two people would be on average about $400 pesos, at todays exchange rate of 13.34 pesos to 1 dollar it translates to less than $30 dollars.
The price of the card is $24.95 and includes shipping and the money you save with the participating restaurants will surely more than pay for the price of the card, not to mention the ammount of time you will save by not having to be in those long border waits.

The card can be purchased thru Ultimate Baja, we have set up a Paypal account discountcards@ultimatebaja.com
It will also be available thru the Baja Nomad Tienda and Baja Bound Insurance.

I have to work on their web site a bit in order for it to show each restaurants discount.
