Don't know about this year, but last year Dragonfly had both their regular & their Rest. Week menus going. They dropped the regular one and we had to ask for the RW menu -- you think they would have had it noted on our rez! So, if you want to take an FT chance and play the game, make a regular reservation and see what happens.
Abacus was all RW menu... and it was OUTSTANDING! We were seated 40 minutes late, but each got comp'ed a big flute of Vieuve Cliquot for the wait! Needless to say we are booked again this year!!
