LuckyRice

RESTAURANT WEEK

Monday, May 3 – Sunday, May 9, 2010

If we are what we eat, then we are all part-Asian!

A quick sampling of New York City’s most celebrated restaurants certainly attests to this. At the LUCKYRICE Restaurant + Bar Week, we enjoyed specially-designed (and priced) tasting menus at participating restaurants selected by the LUCKYRICE Culinary Council. Both Asian (and not-so-Asian) Restaurants and bars across town showed their love for Asian-inspired dishes, ingredients and techniques as they created tasting menus inspired by the flavors of Asia.

If you’re looking for your next meal, you won’t need to look too far. We’ve kept this list live so you can continue to visit some of our favorite restaurants.
