LI RESTAURANT WEEK EXTENDED: Every cloud has a silver lining.

Sunday, Nov. 18 to accommodate those diners who continue to
recover from Hurricane Sandy and others who are conserving
gas. Participating restaurants will offer their special three-course
prix-fixe menus for $24.95 all night, every night they are
open except Saturday when the menu must only be offered until
7 p.m. Check www.longislandrestaurantweek.com for updates.
