More Christmas Day  and Restaurant Week  Dining
-
- December
- 8
Just heard from Len Bernstein, the owner over at Jackson & Wheeler in Pleasantville. Somehow we missed including him in our exhaustive roundup of Where To Dine on Christmas.
Here’s what Len wrote in an e-mail:
“The Christmas day buffet is $25 per person and we will provide a pretty wide variety of dishes on the buffet including wraps, pizzas, vegetables, pastas, chicken, rice, potatoes etc. If people wish individual items and not the buffet, we will offer a very limited menu as well that day.”
He also mentioned that he’s continuing the prix fixe menu (but not exactly the prices) from Hudson Valley Restaurant Week (and he’s not the only one).
The menu is still 3 courses but for $16.95 and $29.95 for lunch and dinner Monday through Friday. Writes Len: “We plan to continue it indefinitely. During restaurant week we found out that many people enjoy a prix-fixe meal and appreciate the value it provides. As long as it remains popular, and so far it has been great, we will continue to run it.”
Other restaurants that will keep the prix fixe three-course dinner offer going include Vertigo in Nyack and Le Fontane in Katonah.
If there are other restaurants we missed in our Christmas roundup  let me know here!

Dear Liz:
I have been reading your reviews and lively posts the past couple of months. I am a native of Westchester, particularly New Rochelle and a former White Plains resident but have lived out west for the past dozen years. As I still have family in New Rochelle and visit now and then I was excited to see that there actually is a new restaurant there which I am hoping you will visit.
I am sure you are aware of Yankees pitcher Mariano Rivera’s new place on Memorial Highway, Mo’s Grill in New Rochelle. It opened this past July. I hope its on your list to visit since I am sure many of us would love to know what you think. He has it listed as American/Continental and a family restaurant.
Hope to hear back!
Keep up the good work.
Hi Liz,
The following may be of interest to your readers…
Starting on Wednesday, January 10, Zagat Survey will offer visitors of Zagat.com free access to ratings and reviews of all Zagat-rated restaurants participating in Winter Restaurant Weeks in New York City, Philadelphia, San Diego, San Francisco and Washington, D.C.
Web users can view a list of restaurants in each city, plus details regarding dates and meal deals at http://www.zagat.com/restaurantweek. In addition, visitors will be able to provide reviews of their own Winter Restaurant Week dining experiences, which will be posted on Zagat.com.
In 1992, Tim Zagat and renowned restaurateur Joe Baum conceived the idea of enlisting top Manhattan restaurants to offer $19.92 lunches as a promotion while the Democratic National Convention was in town. As a result, NYC’s popular Restaurant Week was born. Given the success of this promotion, cities around the nation gradually started their own versions of the promotion.
Please share with your audiences this free, useful and interactive opportunity.
This offer will last throughout the month of January, starting January 10th and will run until the end of the Restaurant Week dates. See below for a listing of this year’s Winter Restaurant Weeks.
