Im OK with any date, as I will have to confirm on short notice anyway... Unfortunately, my job responsibilities dont allow me to play so far ahead...
Gaucho100K, as far as I am led to believe, any FlyerTalker in good standing who asks politely will likely get an invite from Catman. And particularly someone who can appreciate the finer aspects of a perfectly cooked, fork tender pound of beef. I would certainly think Catman would want to compare notes with you, based on our own "conversation" a few weeks ago about the finer things Buenos Aires has to offer in this regard. But if you do come, you must bring me a box of Havannas: no Catman, not the ones you and Cigarman savor, but Alfajores! If you've ever had one, you wouldn't have to ask about the difference. (But let's just say they are Argentina's answer to Krispy Kremes.)
Shareholder, it looks like we share some common interests (both Argentine & Cuban Havanas). As much as I love both, Im not sure I could mix a Monty No. 2 or a Sancho Panza Belicoso & a Chocolate Alfajor, though
. However, a pound (or two) of beef, a nice full-bodied red and a good smoke (preferably a cuban torpedo) is right up my alley.
Let me see how the logistics work, but I will do my best to make the gathering & to bring along a few boxes of Alfajores for all present to sample. (you can take home whatever -if anything- is left over
)
PS: I also have to figure out a way to get my cubans past US customs. Perhaps this is a job for
Gaucho007...
