Cafe Boulud's lunch is now recession-priced.

It's a sign of the times that black clouds of economic gloom hang over even Palm Beach. So to shine a little sun on local restaurants and build on the good work of October's Palm Beach Restaurant Week, a dozen or so island eateries are teaming up with the Palm Beach County Convention and Visitors Bureau to put on Palm Beach Restaurant Month, from June 1 to June 30.

Among the participants: Café Boulud, Ta-Boo, Renato's, Charlie's Crab, and Flagler Steakhouse at the Breakers. Here's the deal. A three-course lunch (appetizer, entrée, dessert) will cost $20.09, a three-course dinner $35. Call the individual restaurant to make reservations, so you can eat like an islander, even if you can't afford to live there.
