P.F. Chang's, the Chinese restaurant chain that features giant soldiers as sentinels to the gates of fancy mall dining, is celebrating its 18th birthday, and you get the gift.

Become a fan of P.F. Chang's Facebook page and you'll be able to print out a coupon good for a free lettuce wrap appetizer ($8 value). The coupon is good at all P.F. Chang's restaurants nationwide until July 31.

P.F. Chang's lettuce wraps are one of the chain's most popular dishes. Chicken, mushrooms, green onions, and water chestnuts are sautéed and served wrapped in cool, crisp lettuce leaves; this is a great summer dish for when South Florida weather becomes insanely hot.

P.F. Chang's has two locations in Broward, at the Galleria Mall and at Sawgrass Mills.

If you want to make some lettuce wraps at home, here's a video that shows you how (after the jump):
