Both Winter & Summer Restaurant Weeks were HUGE hits with tons of restaurant choices, so we are thrilled Restaurant Week is returning this winter. The summer program introduced new pricing options ($21, $39, $125), which restaurants offered during meal periods of their choosing (lunch, dinner or both).

Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Monday, January 16, 2023.
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is a national holiday with all public schools, post offices, and government buildings closed. There are many ways to celebrate the great life of this inspirational man, including: Martin Luther King Weekend in Harlem, Martin Luther King Jr. Day Anti-Hunger Serve-a-thon and often, a Central Park Seneca Village Tour.
Insider Guides: Harlem Neighborhood Guide, Central Park Guide
Why is Seneca Village important? West 82nd to West 89th Streets was the largest New York community of African-American property owners before Central Park was built and displaced them. While there isn’t much we can do about it today, we should all take the time to learn the historical significance and add it to the list of NYC’s "never forgets."
Things to do on MLK Day:
- Central Park Seneca Village Tour
- Martin Luther King Jr. Serve-A-Thon.
- MLK Weekend Events, Concerts & Arts
- Support African American Businesses by Taking a Tour, Eating Out, Shopping or celebrating AA talent on the Great White Way
Tours Open MLK Weekend and/or Day
Broadway Shows Featuring African American Talent (On and Off Stage)

New York Botanical Garden Holiday Train Show
November 18, 2023–January 15, 2024
A dazzling and detailed replica of Manhattan, made entirely from plants, leaves, seeds and bark. There are at least 14 electric trains running in loops around the city, which showcases more than 175 scaled iconic buildings and structures such as the Brooklyn Bridge, Yankee Stadium, and the Statue of Liberty. The exhibit is great for both kids and adults, and makes an especially beautiful date night with cocktails on "Bar Car Nights" in December. Located in the Bronx, accessible by Subway and Metro North.
Tickets: Holiday Train Show All-Garden Pass (good for Holiday Train Show and grounds 10am-5pm, not for Glow or other evening events)
Just like NYC, twinkling lights go on at night with both city and holiday lights. All NYC landmarks and buildings are created entirely from botanical "ingredients" such as, orange slices, cinnamon sticks, poppy pods, pine cones, berries, mushrooms, nuts, bark, leaves twigs and dozens of other plant parts. Humming along between familiar sites such as the Statue of Liberty and Rockefeller Center, large-scale model trains cover a quarter-mile of track to bring life to this traditional holiday landscape. The Holiday Train Show @ NYBG is definitely one of those "not-to-be-missed" and "only in NYC" unique and memory-creating things to do for couples, families and children.
