Yes, we told you Restaurant Week was coming last Sunday, but you need to be told again because you need to make reservations now. Great deals, folks, from great chefs. The culinary festival features more than 120 restaurants offering multicourse meals for the “mile high” price of $52.80 for two, or $26.40 for one. And remember: servers are working extra hard on lower-than-usual checks, so be generous with tips. Through Friday.
