PiM Guests!

Over the weekend, I was asked about our offering set menus for our gatherings. Our decision to do so was driven by strong suggestions from prior hosts, a synopsis of which can be found in this thread: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum95/HTML/001349.html

We knew when we started that it would be difficult to meet everyone's needs, but we did want to offer cost and menu diversity between our Friday & Saturday dinners. This was balanced by restaurants' inability to handle separate checks, or to serve a large group reasonably expeditiously with an a la carte menu.

We'd love to have you at all of our events, but what we really want is for you to enjoy yourselves in our city. If we've planned something that doesn't meet your needs, we understand and hope you won't be offended if we help you make alternate arrangements. We'll be pleased to recommend nearby restaurants that are sure to meet your requirements. After dinner, come join the rest of the group for after dinner activities.

The committee has financial guarantees for each dinner, so we would appreciate knowing your plans immediately, allowing us to adjust our guaranteed headcount.

On behalf of the PiM Organizing Committee,

bollar
