Location: Custom House at 500 South Dearborn

Time: Thursday, November 1 at 8:00pm

Confirmed attendees (maximum of 6):
  1. blort
  2. ElmhurstNick
  3. iluv2fly
  4. Plainsman

  6. ???

Potential attendees:

Would need to check the better half's schedule, but that might well work out for me. Would be nice to see everyone.

Best, Dave

blort, count me as a tentative. It's Thursday and I like to drink. What venue is everyone thinking of?

Awesome. I'll pick one out this weekend and update the thread. I'm surprised Capital Grille made it onto the list?

(rest assured that will not be the final selection -- I walk by the one next to Grand Central almost every night)

Willie, any pull at Sepia? They offered 5:30pm or 9:30pm.

I don't mind the 9:30pm but I'm guessing that others wouldn't be so pleased.

I might be able to make dinner and/or lunch, depending on location and time.
