NEW YORK (WLNY) – A chance to eat the best — for less.

Running until February 8, the popular dining event will offer guests dining deals Mondays through Fridays —  $25 prix-fixe lunches and $38.00 prix-fixe dinners around the city.

The menu at French bistro Bar Boulud is based off a traditional Burgundian wine tasting table. It specializes in charcuterie, the art of preparing meat in flavorful ways. Dardashtian sampled Pate Grand Mere: Chicken liver pork and cognac, with homemade grainy mustard — and the daintiest pickles.

Dardashtian also checked out deals at Delmonicos and Tribeca Grill. Check out the segment for more details.
