Mini-restaurant week for NY400: Taste New Amsterdam

As part of the NY400 events marking the fourth century since Henry Hudson’s arrival in what is now New York, several restaurants are taking part in a mini-restaurant week called Taste New Amsterdam.

The deal offers a meal for $24 — the approximate price “paid” for Manna-hata.

The deal runs through Sept. 20, with only some locations participating during weekends. Some serve the deal for lunch, some at dinner.

But be warned, the Taste New Amsterdam website is in flash, (meaning you may not be able to see it on your cell phone) and the restaurant list a 7-page PDF file. And worse yet, at lunchtime today, a NewYorkology reporter walked into one of the listed restaurants, Battery Gardens, and was told they’re not participating in any way, shape or form.

However a few calls confirmed that Bridge Cafe is taking part during dinner; Il Buco is doing the deal for lunch; and Delmonico’s said it is in for both lunch and dinner.

Pó in Brooklyn is offering the deal Sunday through Thursdays at dinner — but only before 7 p.m.

So the best advice may be to call ahead.
