Go and get 'em! Reservation booking has just opened up here for the semiannual NYC Restaurant Week, aka one of our favorite (and super highly recommended) city food events. This is the 21st anniversary of the event, and the eating takes place for longer this time around, lasting from July 16-August 10 (excluding Saturdays).

Get over to OpenTable quickly to snap up the best and newest tables, among them Boulud Sud and Maialino, lest you get stuck dining at some Theater District steakhouse that survives on tourists being loose with their money and not too particular about what's on their plate.

Scanning down the list of the hundreds of participating restaurants, many restaurants stand out, like Ai Fiori, Morimoto and Red Rooster. But then the press release adds some necessary info: "New NYC Restaurant Week participants this season include, Kin Shop, The Dutch, La Mar Cebicheria Peruana, Loi Restaurant, Mas (La Grillade), North End Grill, Vic & Anthony�s and Zio Ristorante." We'd especially recommend booking up those first two places.

As in most years past, the three-course, prix-fixed meals will remain set at $24.07 for lunch and $35 for dinner (excluding beverages, taxes and gratuities).

Pro tip: AMEX cardholders always get something special out of NYCRW. This season, it's a $20 statement credit if you register you card for the promotion here and then dine (and pay with) your AMEX at least four times for NYCRW.
