SoupDO 18 - June 2nd, 2023
In conjunction with the famed Brooklyn Reality Tour, led by dhammer53 , the SoupDO has always been held the night before at La Bonne Soupe at 48 W 55th Street.

Due to Catman being unavailable, I'd like to get an idea of who would be interested. La Bonne only does a set menu/charges a lot of $$$ if a lot of folks attend. As such, we're going to cap attendance at 14 and will clear folks from ‘stand-by’ if anybody has to drop out.

If I recall correctly, they do not allow for split checks, so please bring cash (or be prepared to Paypal/Venmo/Zelle) to make it easy on the restaurant and your fellow FTers.

The menu is here. 7:15pm on the 2nd is the start time which should allow plenty of time for folks flying into NYC on Friday to make it to their hotels and drop bags/get a drink beforehand.

Hope to see you all there!

I think Catman would say that KathyWdrf has a purr-fect attendance.

The last I heard, Catman is still in rehab.

For those who haven't been to La Bonne (as well as fans of the restaurant), this article has some cool history from the opening in 1973 to today.
