RESTAURANTS:Continental Restaurant Week
The big boys of travel are jumping on the gastromonic band wagon. Continental Airlines is sponsoring an International Restaurant Week in New York City from May 2 thru May 11. The celebration and promotion (partnered with Zagat) highlights 12 cuisines from destinations the airline services. So instead of one standard price for a hit or miss meal, each restaurant has a specific offering to highlight their region's cuisine. Japan is rep'ed by Megu and the sake tasting menu being offered. Churasciara Plataforma is doing the honors for Brazil. Alto for the Alto Adige region in Italy. Wakiya is offering complimentary hors dorves and desserts to show off China's golden spoon. Vouchers for all the goodies are available at www.continentalrestaurantweek.com.
