Exciting!! Restaurant MONTH!

Just got this in from my Zagats newsletter! LOVE THIS!

Restaurant Week Becomes Restaurant Month
Published in Deals and Events

With food costs steadily increasing and consumer confidence flat, it's a tough time to be in the restaurant business. To make things even worse, many of the city's high-spending diners go out of town for the month of August. Restaurateurs look fondly upon Summer Restaurant Week as a way to fill tables during the dining doldrums, but this year's enthusiasm for it is unprecedented. NYC & Company has just announced that 130 of the 230 restaurants participating in this year's Restaurant Week are preparing to extend their three-course prix fixe lunch ($24.07) and dinner ($35) deals through Labor Day. Some of the restaurants that are keeping the offer going include Aquavit, Café Boulud, ilili, Morimoto, Tabla and Vong. A complete list of restaurants participating in the extension should be available on www.NYCvisit.com on Friday at midnight.
