NYC -- Dinner on Monday, March 14th
 

I'm coming to NYC on March 14th for a conf at the W=A.

Any NYC-area FTers up for some dinner on Monday night?
My CO flight lands LGA @ 5:06 pm.

Cite has a $69 deal with wine
Time: 8:00 p.m. (or whenever Catman can get reservations).

Hope to see some old, and possibly meet some new, friends.

Cite sounds good to me. I can be there Monday 14Jan.

IF we can push it to 8pm we can get the $69 wine dinner (three courses food, four courses unlimited wine.)

Unless something comes up last minute I can make it but NOT before 8pm.

8:00 p.m. it is.

So we have an official ALMOST Monthly "Alley Cat's Meeting
(with out of town guests:)

[b] Time: 8pm
Place: Cite on West 51st Street off 6th

The Guests (updated as of 3-09:

Billikan
Catman
Monitor
Liquid

Possible

UAL_Rulez (If he clears his waitlist!)



I'll make a reservation towards the end of the week when we have a better head count.

Count me in for Monday inasmuch as I dropped the ball on getting something together in December. Hey, I was out of town :p

As I am no longer in NYC, I won't be able to make it. Man I would of loved to go. Had a great time last time Billiken was in town. Hopefully sometime soon I can make it back to NY. Enjoy!

Class at the time sorry guys
-howie

How can anyone leave New York? :confused: :D Where's home now for you?

I'll be there but Franny is working that night (actually just a Co-op board meeting but they usually do some food during or after).

This sounds like a fun dinner. As usual, I will not be able to make it as I have commitments elsewhere. I will lift a glass to toast all in attendance. Have a great dinner.

Best regards,

RD

Regrets
 

I'll be having dinner at the Guastavino's on 59th Street and won't be come to the Cite. Thanks for the invitation, even though nobody knows who I am! :eek:

Sounds fun, but I'll be winging it to YVR for work. Maybe next time.

I now call Lansing, MI home. I do miss NY!! Trust me I would love to be in NY. Making the most of my time here. Go Sox!!! :D

UA-dependent tentative Yes...
 

I can probably make it, if (how's this for an FT excuse) UA clears my waitlist to switch from the 7:40AM flight to SFO on Tuesday to the 11:30AM departure. If I have to be at JFK by 6 something AM the next day, I don't think I am up for an all-u-can-drink at Cite' the night before...

I'm sure some us will be able to take up any slack in consumption that occurs.
:D

We Have Reservations
 

The Alley Cats (with special out of town guest Billikan) are set for an almost monthly meeting:

Time: 8pm
Place: Cite on West 51st Street off 6th
Party of SIX under name "Blanchard" (Cite as always can adjust the numbers as need be.)

The Guests (updated as of 3-10:)

Billikan
Catman

Looking forward to it.

Count me in
 

My WL hasn't cleared yet, but it probably will. Anyway what the heck...I'm in p.s. F, so if I have to crash in the Spacebed all the way to SF I'll do it.

Add me to the list, please. :)

List has been updated above.

If anyone else wants to join that "six" can be extended. Post here and I'll call Cite to change the #'s.

See ya Monday night!

Catman:


Thanks in advance for setting this up. ^


Billiken

Catman,

I was at Cite' tonight for dinner and the wines they had tonight will also be the four selections for Monday:

Iron Horse Chardonnay, Sonoma 2001
Dei Vino Nobile de Montepulciano 2001
Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa 2001
Nicolas Feuillatte Brut NV

Enjoy!

Flyerwife.. thank you for the preview! My mouth is already drooling at the wine list (esp. the Robert Mondavi... which looks intreging.)

Cite sure knows how to pick wine.

It should be a fun evening. If anyone else wants to join us please post here by 4pm NYC time and I can call the restaurant to update the list.

See you all tomorrow night. :)

Preview? Looks intriguing? Catman...did you enjoy these exact wines so much just last month at Cite, that you've forgotten that you've already experienced them? How quickly you forget! :)

They're all great, and I found the 2001 Iron Horse Chardonnay an especially enjoyable surprise. As did Catman, but he's apparently forgotten them all! :)

PremEx... I blame short term memory loss! ;)

The names of the wines are starting to come back to me, and I do remember liking the IRon Horse a little more! Sorry that I forgot.

Looks like we're set for tonight at 8p, baring any last minute additions.

Fun Time at Cite
 

Catman:

Great call re the restaurant.

Glad to meet/see everyone (again).

Thanks for coming out to dine with the out-of-towner

Billiken

I concur on Billikan's statement. Glad everyone enjoyed cite (again, the Iron Horse was the clear tasting winner, although some preferred the champaigne.)

Great to see everyone again!

Billikan... remember you'll always have someone to dine with in NYC whenever you come to town. Hope to see ya again soon.
