    hello peoples!

    at our last outing to sunshine cafe, minh got on this whole "we should whatchacallit do dinner more often" kick. so i'm taking a little
    initiative here and suggesting we give this a go... sort of "cask-elor" party to celebrate my oh-so-soon-upon-me wedding. i know we
    talked about going for vietnamese, but since i'm setting it up, i'm saying dim sum! late-night style, in chinatown. (thinking ming hin,
    if anyone's familiar with it.) and i saw we make it open to everyone, so spouses, etc should definitely come along. and since it's dim
    sum, there's plenty of options for vegetarians and carnivores alike.

    i'm tentatively thinking we should do this about 3 weeks from now... the weekend september 22-23, that should give everyone, even
    jeff, time to figure out if they can make it or not. (and i nominate bryan to keep minh in the loop. =p)

    so let's make this happen, folks!

    I believe I'll be able to go, not sure about Brian though. As long as we aren't leaving town that weekend, I should be able to go for sure. That is... As long as you are allowing females at this cask-elor party. ;) lol.

    I am guessing that you meant to write "should definitely not come alone."?? Otherwise, I have no idea what you have planned there mister. :razz: lol

    ha, me and minh (minh and I?) were actually just talking about this. Mary has the glutens, so Chris can you kind of nail down where we're going so we can call ahead and crap. Or if there is no preference except chinatown we can try and find somewhere gluten free. Sorry she just gets super sick.

    i'm sure there's something there that's gluten free... check the menu though, because i'm not really sure what constitutes gluten. =p
    there are also daily/weekly specials that seem moe "large plate" type things, including veggies, etc.

    A week earlier would probably be better, but if I'm in the minority it'll be OK.

    i believe the general consensus was that we'd try something new and different each time, right? and ming-hin's dim sum doesn't start back up until 9pm. way to throw a rock into the blender, me!

    also on the 15th: http://chipotle.com/cultivate/

    Haha, you are such a trouble maker Bill! :razz:

    I should be able to go as well... Not sure about Brian. What time were you guys planning on going and where? Brian will most likely not want to go because out involves driving to the city, but I shall find out.
