It’s that time of year again, when New York celebrates some of the finest dining the world has to offer.
NYC Restaurant Week is New York City’s original dining celebration. As the country’s first-ever restaurant week, it debuted in 1992 when it was developed as a one-time culinary event to welcome the Democratic National Convention (DNC) to the City. Though created to appeal to delegates and other DNC attendees, the program—with 95 participating restaurants—also found a strong following among residents excited to dine at some of the City’s top restaurants for a fraction of the usual cost and who wanted NYC Restaurant Week to be a recurring event.
