Begun in 1992, Restaurant Week has become a New York City institution, as eateries across the five boroughs offer special prix-fixe menus, including some of the hottest, most expensive places, giving everyone the opportunity to sample their wares. Winter Restaurant Week has been extended through February and features nearly two hundred city dining establishments offering three-course lunches for $24.07 and dinners for $35 (Saturdays excluded, Sundays optional). Among the many participating restaurants are the ‘21’ Club, Aquavit, Asia de Cuba, B. Smith, Butter, Estiatorio Milos, Gotham Bar & Grill, I Trulli, Le Cirque, Megu, Nice Matin, Nobu, Patroon, Petrossian, the River Café, Rosa Mexicano, Shun Lee Palace, Tamarind, Tocqueville, and the Water Club.
