Can't make the 23rd--will be at a conference's reception at that time. (So this is more of a sorry-not-sorry post

Hey all. Nice meeting many of you at the last DC gathering. Would love to join the January 23 Restaurant Week gathering if there's still space. Thanks.

Hello fellow DC travelers! Was in FTU DC last December but missed the post FTU get together. I see that there's a waitlist for the 23rd of Jan and was wondering if there's still room. Hope to get to meet everyone!
Hope to get to meet everyone!

Can't make it this time around, but next time I recommend Ping Pong Dim Sum (Gallery Place) as a potential location. Good happy hour, and the bar area has a bunch of high tables. Great for big groups.

I'm bailing out, so another lucky person will clear the wait list.

Been there, done that. I thought that Ping Pong was pricey for what you got.

I only hit the happy hour menu/drinks there, you are right about the regular menu. Topaz Hotel bar also often empty and another good place for big groups.
