Letterman Prize restaurant
 
I was watching Dave last night and he did his "know your current events" shctick. As a prize to contestants Dave was giving away a certificate to a restaurant in NYC. I told myself that I would remember the name, but alas have forgotten it. I was wondering if anyone does know and is it any good? I definately plan on making a visit to the Letterman show a part of my trip to NYC and wouldn't it be great if I won a free dinner!! Of course, if the place stinks it wouldn't. Hence this question. Can anyone help me out?

Can't tell you the name but be aware that the restaurants featured give these dinners away in exchange for a mention on the show-it's a form of advertising. Sometimes the places are good (I've seen Ben Benson's mentioned which is a good steak house)-sometimes they're not.

If you know when you're coming to NY I'd suggest writing for tickets right away as they're not easy to get I hear. Go to the website & see what's involved.

I figured it was for advertising purposes. The restaurant had a one word name....perhaps beginning w/ a "r" or "s".

As for ticket, as soon as I book my flight, I'll try for tickets.
