So, it looks like I arrive at 6:30 PM on Wednesday evening. I should be checked into the Sheraton Gateway Suites and settled by 7:30 PM if that helps to decide when & where to meet.

One of us will be able to pick you up, as the hotel is only about 10 minutes from the restaurant.

So what is a Flat Top? Around these parts it's a hairstyle.
So far, Friday lunch is wide open, but later (1 - 2 PM) would be better.Sincerely,

I think this is the one they usually go to, I have only joined these guys for lunch once, at some Cajun place. There were a couple of AA fans there and everyone drank diet Coke....
I`ll be flying in from Europe on the 29th, will be landing at 12:25 pm. I would definitely want to join. If immigrations run smoothly, I should be able to be downtown around 1:30.

Noticed the Cubs were playing Arizona while I'm in town. Might have to spend an afternoon at Wrigley on Saturday. ^

BTW, anybody interested in going to see the Cubbies on Thursday with me? I got two great seats (field box) at a silent auction recently.
