In a word.........
Yes. This is open to all and their friends.

I am really jazzed about the terrific mix of familiar and unfamiliar (to me anyway) faces coming to dinner that night, and a friend will only serve to enhance that mix. Give them the details and we will see them there.
I will leave the reservation as it is for the moment at No Signboard until the day of the event as I suspect that the 50 seats we have reserved will cover us and that and extra chair/table can be grabbed at the last minute if need be. Over the next few days if it appears that we are going to have larger fixed changes in that number I may ring the restaurant one more time. For the moment it looks fine though.
See you soon,
Mike
