I said #2, but I liked #3 as well. It looks like the majority is going for #3, this will be fine with me.

I'll have one from column A, and two from column B.


IF I were going, I'd have picked #3.

The Hyatt just called me to double check and see if we needed anything for the weekend. I told them that if they had any suggestions for Saturday afternoon, to forward them to me email.

That's nice of the Hyatt, SB We didn't get much discussion going here about it - anyone up for Englishtown (mentioned in an earlier post, among other options)?

If I can, I'd like to call the restaurant back today before 5 -- is everyone else okay with MENU #3?

How about the name of a restaurant with no-bullshit menus?

OK...OK... I'll behave.

Number three works for me (even if the whole deal smells like number 2).

Last year's prix-fixe dinner was one of the best I've ever had. And the easiest way for US to handle the check as well. You'll do fine, SC, trust me (as long as the food is good - then it's DMC's fault )

Mig? PB? DT? Smitty?

SC getting mad? Who made SC mad? Was it this DMC guy people keep talking about? If it is let me know, I'll take care of him for you SC...just stay calm

I'm calm now.

Of course, I might change my mind by Saturday.

Hmmmm... at least I can change my mind about THAT (I can't change my mind about the menu).

OK...OK... I'll stop busting balls.

When?

Sunday afternoon.

I don't remember this much complaining last year....

I wasn't there last year.

THAT explains it......

Well ain't you a fuckin' Einstein!!

Didn't hear yourself, huh?

Well, I'm still waiting on a few people about Menu #3, so I'm gonna call and tell them it's likely, and will know definitely tomorrow -- at least I better know by tomorrow *cough*Mig/PB/DS/DT*cough*

Who's gonna get suckered .... errrr, I mean, who's gonna organize all this next year??

You are.

No way... I'm not as dumb as I look.

Half Moon Hotel next year with dinner at Nuova Villa Tammaro.

People were dying to get into those places.

Hell, I think we should all get in the car and go to LaVeranda again.

Who hasn't responded about the restaurant yet, we really do need to get this thing in soon.

Mrs. Cardi agrees!

I haven't.

I'll go with Menu # 3.

Geoff, when you call back, could you ask them to substitute a ceasar salad instead of arugala. Arugala can be bitter, and I would never serve it to a large group, as it doesn't have a very broad appeal.

While you're calling, I'd like a Dewar's & water and I need a clean knife; the one I have is dirty from me stabbing the PRIX FIX menu.

Why don't the two of you stop busting the man's balls so much! It's not easy to try and make 25 different people happy.


BTW - Geoff, could you ask them to substitute the potatoes with a double order of Chorizos? And I like Red Sangria. And maybe they could give us some garlic shrimp for an appetizer instead of Casears Salad. And ask her......

You know we love ya Geoff!

Can you see if they will let me substitute MISS PAELLA for the Lobster Paella? (so many crude comments, so little time)
