Millburn Restaurant Week Continues Through Sunday

Millburn-Short Hills restaurants are in the middle of offering special events and deals on meals as part of the first restaurant week.

As part of it, Q.J. Green Garden offered a Korean barbeque lunch on Wednesday. Meats and fish were grilled on a hot stone at the table with a variety of sauces. They were followed with hot pots of seafood. There also were salads as part of the meal.

Restaurant week, which is sponsored by the Millburn-Short Hills Business Coalition, continues through Sunday.

The Dining Room at the Hilton Short Hills will make a three-course dinner available during Restaurant Week at $35 per person. Choices will include vegetable or seafood appetizer, seafood, chicken or beef main course and a dessert favorite.
