🗽 Broadway & Restaurant Weeks Winter 2020

Hi there and thanks for stopping by! Today's post is for anyone who lives around the NYC area, or is travelling here soon. Restaurant Week as well as Broadway Week are coming up soon and tickets and reservations open today for both!

Debuted in 1992, Restaurant Week in NYC is a twice yearly offering, with over 360 restaurants participating. The dates are January 21st-February 9th, and a two-course lunch is $26 while a three-course dinner is only $42. Reservations fill up quickly, so be sure to snag a few if you're interested. It's a wonderful way to try new-to-you places and different cuisines, and it's something I look forward to every year. 

This year David and I are going to two favorites, The Capital Grille and Boucherie in the Village. Here's the website for more info. And if you don't live in the area, here's a site with all the different Restaurant Weeks and dates that are offered nationwide, listed by city (I'm bookmarking this site for any future travel!)

Also, if you're into musical theater like I am, now is the time to grab Broadway tickets for a real steal. Broadway Week is the same dates as Restaurant Week, 1/21-2/9, making it an exciting as well as economical time for NYC date nights. Broadway Week has been around since 2001, and 2 tickets are the price of 1, making them 50% off! Here's the official site. 

Shows available this year that I absolutely recommend are Aladdin, Beetlejuice (we saw this in previews in DC-recap here), Frozen, Mean Girls, Phantom of the Opera (see my review for it here), and Wicked. I'm interested in Chicago, as well as Mrs Doubtfire (not featured in Broadway Week, but previews start in March for only $59!).

I hope this helps anyone interested in saving a little dough, and taking in some of the best talent and yummiest food NYC has to offer. Let me know any reservations or tickets you take advantage of, I love hearing from you!

Thanks for reading, have a fabulous day. :)
