Restaurant Week in NJ?

[Allura]

Two years ago in late August, iirc, a bunch of us went out to dinner at The Garlic Rose in Cranford and discovered it was "Restaurant Week" there. I went looking later to get more info, and couldn't find any. My SIL reminded me that Restaurant Week was coming up again in DC (where she lives), and that had me wondering: is there such a thing in NJ, particularly North or Central NJ? Per Open Table ( http://www.opentable.com/promo.aspx?pid=224&m=13&ref=1076 - I can't get links to work today!), there appears to be one being held in Southern NJ, in what looks like the Philly Suburbs area. What about us? Any love for those of us in North/Central NJ?

I believe Montclair is doing one this year or next; if I can track down where I saw the mention (probably the Watercooler), I'll post a link here.

Montclair is definitely doing a Restaurant Week for the first time ever -- it's February 2-8, 2009. Something like 35 restaurants have signed on already, including Blu, Fascino, and CulinAriane. Also Church Street Kitchen, Osteria Giotto, Passione, and Egan & Sons.

Here's a link to the website: http://www.gotomontclair.com/rest-week/restaurantweek.htm

Still looking for more restaurants to sign on, and sponsors. So please spread the word!
