I updated the wiki and am hoping my 4 o'clock telecon doesn't drag on too unreasonably long.

I don't think we need a reservation there, but if whoever gets there first could grab a table for 6 or so, it would be helpful. If someone does think we need a reservation, feel free to make one - I am on the phone in meetings pretty much all day today so am unlikely to have a chance to call them.

Just called. Earliest available reservation is 7:15pm tonight. I put us down for then (8 people - under the group name FlyerTalk) in hopes that something will open up earlier. I should get there between 6:15-6:30 and will see if we can get seated a little earlier. Sounds like they're quite full this evening.

Is it ok if I try swing by and crash your party? :) I haven't been to a DC event since I moved west 7 years ago, but used to be a regular.

I'll be there in 5 mins. How will I recognize you? I'm wearing red and green grinch tie.

Good to see folks last night.

For future planning, it looks like winter restaurant week is going to be January 30 - February 5.

Sorry I missed y'all - I was enjoying a birthday dinner with my wife. I should be around at the end of January, though.

You chose her over the chance to talk miles and points, credit card bonuses, airport lounges, step-sibling airlines (Silk Air, I'm thinking of you), MLK/Inauguration week destinations, and other travel-related topics with us? I'm hurt!

Seriously though, I hope to catch up with you and others absent last night at events in 2017.

Apologies for the belated post. It was great seeing everyone who showed up on Thursday. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and safe travel wishes until next time! (Unfortunately, I'm scheduled to be on the road during Restaurant Week.)
