Where, that's a good question.
Dgolds is staying in Cambridge (No Car) and AnnaS is in Wakefield. Somewhere in between should work.
Since I am not 100% sure I will make it, I am up for whatever everyone else decides.
Anybody have any ideas?

OK, here's a suggestion: Anna and I have met up at Rauxa in Somerville's Union Square a couple of times. It's a Catalonian restaurant that has tapas (but only at the bar) on Wednesday night. Great food, halfway between me an Anna, and lots of parking nearby. Prices run around $40 per person, including wine, tax and tip.
I'm definitely open to other ideas, but this one has worked for us.

Yes, Rauxa has worked for us, but how 'bout some of you locals giving us some recommendations for the places that are good but the tourists don't know about?

When we (me & dgolds) have gone in the past, we tend to meet around 8PM because we both work late. Would this be an o.k. time? Traffic should be less horrid by then. Any other BOS folk interested in coming too?
Note: This place isn't terribly convenient to the T so you downtowners would probably need a taxi either from your starting point or you could take the T into Cambridge & get a taxi from there.
For those interested in coming, here's the info on the restaurant:
Rauxa
70 Union Sq.
Somerville
617-623-9939
Hope to see a bunch of you there!

My datebook and I have been reunited, and I am planning on finally meeting a bunch of FTers! Rauxa, 6/28 at 8: if there are a bunch of us (who's keeping count?) maybe
it would be a good idea to make a booking?

Glad to see people coming on board for this! If you plan to attend this get-together, please post by Tues. 6/27 7PM EDT so I can call the restaurant and make a reservation. They also suggested this because if they know there's a big group coming, they can prepare more tapas (they usually just do tapas at the bar, but they should be able to accommodate us at a table)! If you can't confirm by the above time but think you might make it, please post that too. Better to have reservations for slightly too many than too few. Hope to see many new faces there!

Driving in from out of town, for me parking is an issue. And, I'd rather not drive in Boston if I don't have to. (I drove a cab in Boston while in college, and my dad was a Boston cabbie for 20 years, so I know whereof I speak)
