New York Restaurant Week in underway. The two-week event runs from July 11 – 24, 2011 (excluding Saturdays) and features 3-course prix-fixe lunches for $24.07 and dinners for $35 at over 320 restaurants in New York’s five boroughs.
The event, sponsored by NYC & Company lets foodies on a budget experience some of New York’s most acclaimed dining establishments at a very affordable price. Lunch at Chef Michael White’s Ai Fiori on a Tuesday and dinner at world-class Tribeca Grill on a Wednesday? Why not!?
During this summer’s event, I’ll be lunching at db Bistro Moderne one day and eating dinner at David Burke Kitchen on another. Have I had the opportunity of eating at restaurants I might not have ever dined at because of the twice-a-year event – yes!
One note of “caution”, many participating restaurants feature their 3-course Restaurant Week menus on their websites, so be sure to access them prior to booking a reservation to ensure you’ll find something you’ll like before you go.
Several cities throughout the USA host Restaurant Weeks with similar values, so take the plunge and experience some of your city’s best restaurants. Reservations can be made with Open Table at www.opentable.com.
Happy dining!
