Despite all the hype surrounding Restaurant Week, some of the bargains may be gilded. Menus are limited, and $30 is still a considerable amount of money to spend before tax and tip. To make the most of your meal, make sure to check whether your selections are BYOs. And before making a reservation on impulse, visit Philadelphia Menupages (http://philadelphia.menupages.com/) to scope the Restaurant Week menu for your desired eatery.
