Conclusion
It is a good idea for hotels to offer discounts for their loyalty program members to get them to wine and dine at hotels (prices are usually inflated compared to non-hotel outlets).
There are many paid dining plans in Asia-Pacific that offer 50% discounts for members, but you need to fork some cash first to buy a Club membership.
I like the idea of IHG offering discounts for F&B while earning points in the process, even when you are not staying.
