If a restaurant offers three courses with three plates each, make sure your party is no more or less than three people and order everything. Adopt the 30 second rule and coyly slide around the dishes. After everyone has tasted everything then you have the option to keep or trade back a plate you would like to finish. Viola, you successfully will have tasted everything the kitchen has to throw at your fiscal palette during restaurant week.
It was a Thursday night and our 10 PM reso was seated promptly. Our excellent server Leo was able to hold banter with my chatty party. No black linen available so dress accordingly. Every dish was served in a timely fashion. The back waiters cleared the table with precision. Presentation and quality was excellent.
I finished the evening at the bar with a most excellent Makers Manhattan Up. Thank you Tom.
Pros: Timing, Mood, Makers Manhattan Up
Cons: No black linen.
