OK...I just got off the phone with Alice Fazoolis across from Playdium

I have reserved 30 spaces for all who are coming that day (that includes wivs, gf'*, friends, babies etc)

Its a safe number I assume, once the head count gets above 20 the restaurant goes to Large Group Menus. They will be faxing me a menu list which has a selection of items from $15.99 to $32.99 CDN. Also tips are included in that prices, drinks are extra as per usual.

Here is the catch. They have 2 times. 6pm and 8 pm, frankly I want the 8pm slot. 6 is too early, esp if members from out of town want to change etc and prepare for the meal and night cruise.

Please stay tuned to this thread, I have used my mod powers to sticky this...its very important....

Now to call Playdiuim.

Thanks folks, its coming together nicely

Murdock just asked me to post on here to see if anyone would like a VIP card for playdium. He can get them cheaper thru his work, and it entitles you to 2.5 hours of unlimited game play for $25. HORSE RACING HERE I COME!
Tam/Murdock. Can we get these ordered in bulk and have them waiting for us? What is involved to assure that everyone gets one? Does it just apply to indoor activities?

Lemme know if you need me to do anything furthur.

OK folks I had to make another excutive decsion regarding the menu. Since we are such a large group the kitchen staff needs to know what we want ahead of time ie...today.

Hope you can pick something from here that is to your liking....finicky, picky eaters....please bear with me here, doing the best I can with I got. If you cannot decide on what you like, feel free to excuse yourself from the group at dinner.

So..here go

Appetizer

Alice House Salad
or
Caesar

Entree Selection

Shrimp Angel Hair Pasta
or
Mediterrean Pizza
or
Arrsoto Chicken
or
Penne Pomodoro

Dessert

Black and white Chocolate Mousse
and coffee or tea

$25.95 per guest and 15% gratuity included = $33.73 CDN...not bad really...and the food is top notch, I will have a copy of the menu with the specifics on Saturday.

I hope you can all accept this menu choice.

What Americans don't tip?. If anyone can't handle the gratituities, then maybe its best that they make other arrangements. I doubt that is going to be a problem.

You'll miss my speech

We pay taxes too. I hate tips being included and having to tip more. Unless the host or hostess is very nice and thoughtful

In this situation this is no obligation to tip more.

Unless you want to I accept all tips thanks
