May is National Teacher Appreciation Month, and Fish Story Restaurant in Napa will be picking up the tab for the first $10 spent by each teacher or school employee all month, even if the bill is only $10 (excluding tax, alcohol, and gratuity). The discount will be available to teachers and school employees with valid identification from May 1–31, 2013. There are no restrictions on how many teachers may dine together, how often they may dine, or how much money they need to spend to receive the gift. Fish Story is located at 790 Main Street at Third on Napa's Riverfront in Downtown Napa.
