Although Astoria Restaurant week may be over, it's nice to see the after effects still running their course. I love that some establishments have took it upon themselves to extend special menus til the end of summer such as the fancy shmancy, Astor Room. Here's what you can expect all summer in terms of a special prix-fixe menu:
