Unfortunately, I'm out, as I have a work meeting up in Evanston.

Count me in for dinner Thursday.

Um... FT really needs a Homer Simpson smiley.

That working meeting was last night Thursday, not next Thursday. :eek:

Are there any details available yet?

I'm somewhat waiting to get an accurate count. I managed to snag a table for four at Sepia at a decent time, but since it seems like we're going to have more than that, it's not going to work.

I'll make a final decision this weekend and update the original post.

So you're in for dinner?

Count me as probable... for Thurs. as long there's something soft on the menu - I have dental work that afternoon...

Yes, assuming that you don't pick a Thai or sushi place.

should we tell Nick that there is medication now to help him ?;)

I'll have this locked down for sure tomorrow (Monday), but it looks like Custom House will work.

As promised, we're on for Custom House on Thursday at 8:00pm.

I was hoping to get in a little bit earlier, but it was either this or 6pm, and I won't be free by then. However, I should be ready to go around 7pm if anybody wants to meet up for a drink or two before dinner.

Also, I was only able to secure a table for six. We currently have five confirmed attendees, so it'll be first-come, first-served for the sixth spot.

Look forward to seeing everybody on Thursday!

Thanks, we'll see you Thursday evening. BTW, where is the place for lunch on Fri?

Mr. Beef is the lead candidate for lunch right now. I haven't had Italian beef in ages.

There are several Mr. Beefs. You probably mean the one on N. Orleans St. You should know that Chicago is Vienna beef hot dogs and sausages country.

sorry, I'm off the list then. Orleans st is a bit far from west loop.
