It's Back...

Restaurant Week returns! Yay! Three-course gourmet meals at reasonable $20.12 or $30.12 price tags! Yipee!

I've already made reservations for two dinners and a lunch. If you're also looking to test the waters at some of the Big Apple's swankiest dining establishments, I suggest you pick up your phone or log onto OpenTable to lock down some tables. Prime reservation times are being booked quickly.

And, if you want some suggestions, just take a look at the reviews I wrote about Union Pacific, Craft, Bolo, Maloney & Porcelli and Eleven Madison Park from last season's gorge-fest.

But, please learn from my mistakes: Five dining extravaganzas is two too many over a two week period. And, make sure to diet for at least a week before the feasting begins - this way you'll feel like you've earned your gustatory reward.
