Sam will confirm the start time of 4:30 this afternoon after checking with the owners. Early appetizers may be available, but probably will be in addition to the fixed price menu (a la carte, I expect). Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Left out one item:
Price: $50.00 per person, including tax, tip, and corkage. If possible, please bring cash so there aren't a ton of credit cards to process at the end Once ... in the wilds of Afghanistan, I lost my corkscrew, and we were forced to live on nothing but food and water for days. - W. C. Fields |

That sounds like a perfect match for me. Since I am short, dark and broke.
I was thinking that perhaps we should try something new next time for an offline. How about a clothing optional offline? Eat till your sleepy and sleep till your hungry. |

I knew I would forget something on that "final final"
Two more things: Start time: Dinner will begin promptly at 5:30 PM. Early arrival is 4:30 PM, everyone is welcome. I'll probably bring an additional chilled white wine to share, and I thing a couple others are considering the same thing. Glassware There is no need to bring your own unless you wish to have more than two stems. The Restaurant will provide two Riedel stems per seat.
