Three Restaurants To Help You Get Over The Closing of NYC's Tavern On The Green
After some time of struggling financially, running into drama with club promoters, and serving tourists overpriced food, Central Park's iconic Tavern on the Green restaurant is closing for good. It will inevitably reopen at some point in the future under new management, and probably with a different name and definitely with new interiors since they're auctioning everything off, but we could care less. Why? Because New York City is a town overflowing with excellent restaurants, a good lot of them miles above Tavern on the Green in quality and food and yet priced lower.
Don't let Kelly Ripa's sadness over Tavern's closure fool you; her family also treasures Serendipity 3, a tourist trap of a restaurant that pushes "frozen hot chocolate," which is essentially just a chocolate shake in a bowl; not to mention that the place has been closed in the past by the Health Department for rodent infestation.
We're kind of happy to see Tavern go, since it's closing means tourists will discover other restaurants and support those, and we've got three in particular to recommend.
Three restaurants to help you get over Tavern on the Green's closing:

Some News From Philly That's Not World Series-Related
How do you enjoy Restaurant Week menus and prices without it actually being Restaurant Week? Well, if you're in Philadelphia, all you've got to do is book your hotel stay on withlove.gophila.com, and you'll receive all the details on the hotels where you can dine on discount prix-fixe menus through December 30.
Restaurants featured run the gamut, from super swish 4-course meals at Lacroix at The Rittenhouse to fresh Italian at Positano Coast. And since we promised Restaurant Week prices, you'll be happy to hear the the 3-to-4-course meals are all either $20, $30 or $35 per person. We're guessing that Lacroix is up at the $35 end, but menu choices aren't piddly; think "prime rib, crab imperial, handmade orecchiette and olive oil-poached Scottish salmon."

dineLA Restaurant Week Turns Into Restaurant Month
Los Angeles foodies, cleanse your palates and rev up your digestive systems, because dineLA Restaurant Week is extending for yet one more week. Originally slated to run from October 4-9, it stretched through the 16th, and now through the 23rd. In that case, shouldn't it be called Restaurant Month? No matter, because the extension is to your benefit, giving local restaurant-goers the chance to sample some of the city's best eateries for a mere fraction of what it would normally cost to dine at them.
Here's how it works: Go online and take a look at the list of over 200 participating restaurants, choose where you'd like to eat, and make a reservation by calling them directly or via OpenTable. As a friendly tip, we suggest telling your maître d' and server upon arrival that you have joined them as a dineLA Week patron, for two important reasons: 1) You want to make sure that you're getting the adjusted rate, which ranges from $16-44, depending on which price tier of restaurant you choose, and whether you're eating at lunch or dinnertime, and 2) You can't just go about ordering whatever items you want. The restaurants have crafted special dineLA menus for the occasion—three courses of some of their chef's best.

Our Top Five Picks For San Diego's Extended Restaurant Week
Get cheap French eats at Bleu Bohème during San Diego Restaurant Week.
The Restaurant Weeks in New York and LA attracted so many diners that the cities decided to add second courses of the culinary event. San Diego is feeling just as generous, also dishing out extra days for Restaurant Week by adding a fall event to the original offerings which were supposed to end last week.
Officials have extended San Diego Restaurant "Week" until September 25. You'd think that all of this Restaurant Week love should be a hint to restaurants that they should permanently add affordable three-course menus during this recession. Still, until they get a clue, we'll recommend some additional places in San Diego where you can get a great meal deal during the extension.

Our Top Picks For The Final Days Of San Diego Restaurant Week
The Marine Room serves up a deal for Restaurant Week.
If you've wanted to try out a restaurant or two, there's still a couple days left to put yourself in a food coma during San Diego Restaurant Week, which runs through September 18. More than 180 restaurants are offering sweet deals for three-course meals as part of the fifth annual event.
San Diego Restaurant Week, which usually runs in January, is making its fall debut. This marks the second time this year that Restaurant Week has invaded local restaurants. It seems like this marketing ploy to help struggling restaurants is a new trend, since L.A. also recently made its Restaurant Week a semiannual event. But hey, we'll take it to get some cheap, yummy eats. Restaurants all across the county, from Escondido to Coronado, feature special menus with local, seasonal ingredients. You can score some good discounts, since the prix fixe meals come in packages of $20, $30 or $40, though tax, beverages and gratuity aren't included.
Check out Jaunted's picks after the jump.
