Jardinière presents a three-course prix fixe ($49) featuring coq au vin on August 13, RN74 offers a four-course lunch ($29) or dinner ($39) menu highlighted by lamb stew all week long, and La Scene serves a three-course lunch or dinner comprised of Child's recipes all week (price TBD), with a four-course finale on August 15.
