Discover Queens Restaurant Week

Admittedly, whenever I read or hear the words "Restaurant Week," my brain typically thinks, "Ooh! What Manhattan restaurants are participating and which ones are still taking reservations?" It never occurred to me that other boroughs might do the same thing.

*hangs head in shame*

In an attempt to abandon my intermittent Manhattan-centric ways of thinking and to right my wrongs, I'm pleased to announce that the Discover Queens Restaurant Week is coming up. Restaurant Week will run for two weeks, from October 5 - October 15 with restaurants from all over the borough offering dining deals. You'll be able to dine from special menus at a prix-fixe price of $25! (Other deals are available depending on the restaurant, so check out the website for more specific details.)
