Sunday, August 24 - Chicago

Well I just found out I have to at a meeting at 8am on Monday the 24th in Chicago which means I have to fly in the night before. I thought I would make the most of it and see if any Flyer Talkers would be around Sunday evening for dinner.

Princess, I should be in town that evening & would definitely be up for dinner. I may end up doing a ORD-LHR mileage run but would be back into ORD by 18:00.

Sure, I'm in, up for anything.

If you/anyone is interested, I just read that the restaurant Vinci is doing a Tuscan-style pig-roast barbecue every Sunday through Labor Day from noon-9:30 PM. See: http://www.flyertalk.com/dining/ftdi...ML/000178.html

I really want to go to this Tuscan-style pig-roast barbecue that is happening every Sunday through Labor Day from noon-9:30 PM. See: http://www.flyertalk.com/dining/ftdi...ML/000178.html

So I hope prncess674 can come, but even if they can not, I will be there on Sunday evening August the 24th and hope other FTers can join me.

I'll be there at 5pm for pre drinks, dinner at 6:30pm.

I am calling the travel agent at work tomorrow. I tried calling tonight but they were already closed. I will have a more definitive plan by Monday next week.

Of pig?

I think Mrs. Mikey likes it and I will be able to attend.

Look forward to reconnecting with some of you and to meeting some new FTers.

Sounds like fun, sign me up. There won't be any mean New Yorkers or mean Parisians there, right?

Well, I'm gonna be driving through from KY that evening, so assuming Chicago traffic doesn't screw me up too badly, I'll be there at some point.
Any estimate as to whether people will be there towards the beginning or end? noon-9PM is an awful lot of pig roastin'
