Hey everyone was thinking we could have a ft dinner in nyc on 10/17 they are running pre-fixed specials $30.01 at most of the major resturants here in nyc.it runs from the 15th-21th im pretty flexable with the dates.
-howie
ps.ill post the list of resturants.

I will be in NYC next Saturday(October 20th) so perhaps any other FTer�s are in town?I will arrive at JFK at 1.35 from Paris(AA 45) and then do a little bit shopping and then I would really like to meet some of you. So Stockmanjr what do you think? Which retaurant is the best deal?

Tim

Here's the list of places.Nyc fters who eat out alot please chime in.

The Best Deal in the Greatest City Just Got Better
I Love New York Restaurant Week October 15-21, 2001

Announcing the return of the $20.01 prix-fixe lunch at New York's finest restaurants!

what can one expect to get for $30? a full meal? or just an entree?

A meal! C'mon Mark!

Actually mark ive done the $20.01 lunch they've had at some of the resturants and they are always a 3 course lunch
-howie

I will be in NYC this weekend (Sat/Sun) and would be interested in meeting with others if you decide on 10/20 for dinner.

I just had lunch at Lutece. Was a wonderful three course for $20.01. Highly recommend the pumpkin soup with ginger and the duck entree.
I will be NY for a while and would love to join for another restaurant.

I guess 10/20 is the date now so what resturant what you'll like to do?
-howie

would like to have been there, but my GF is coming over for the weekend

Oh well, I will be in Michigan this weekend well someday I will get to meet other FTers I guess!

Count me in for the 20th! Please let me now time and place.I would prefer a time from 8 p.m. on.But if this won�t be possible for the others I will have to do my shopping faster but this won�t be a large problem!

Any place/time is fine with me. Just let me know.

If you haven't booked a restaurant yet, I would do it ASAP.

Channell 5 will be staying with me in NYC that night and we would both like to come. Wingingit might be with us too.

I took a survey from my co-workers and they suggested the following. Might I add that they are all food editors for Martha Stewart TV:

Artisani
Brasserie
Capagna
Eleven Madison Park
Le Zinc
Tabla & Bread BAr
The Tonic
Vong
& Zoe

Let me know what you all decide. I suggest booking ASAP, too.
