The bi-annual event offering discounted eats at well known restaurants enters its final week today, with the deals ending on Friday (2/8). Here’s the complete list of participating [...]

Mentioned last Monday that reservations were being taken for 2013 Winter Restaurant Week. Just a quick reminder that the actual eating begins today.

It’s that time of year again… Winter Restaurant Week is just around the corner (January 14 – February 8th), and once again there are plenty of  Upper West Side options for you to sample the goods at.

Leopard At Des Artistes opened last month to much fanfare. After some early notes on the place from Eater, Steve Cuozzo at The Post had a more detailed review in yesterday’s paper. Cuozzo pretty much gushes about the place, writing, among other things, “Cafe des Artistes was over years before it died. The Leopard at [...]
