Well, Fat Guy, some of us have been here already, lazily lurking, but, I suspect, no more. You'll surely be hearing from a lot of us, epecially with those of us who are finally tired of the shenanigans at Chowwhatever. DDC was something I started back in the late 80's until it fizzled from inertia in the early 90's.. In those days we used to dine monthly for $20pp or less! Now the price has climbed only to $25 pp, and we have experienced some extraordinary dinners at places like Tierra Columbiana, Penang, Paloma, Pho Xe Lua, Independence Brewpub, Sultan Indian in Lansdale, a string of roadside BBQ joints in deep South jersey (thanks to tips we got from Holly), Georgian Russian at Yonnys in Center City Philly (now closed!) and Central American food at Ramona's in Haddonfield, NJ (also RIP). The idea for starting the DDC back up actually came from an innocent post on Chowblech some 18 months ago---I guess they were good for something-----, and off we went, and the mailing list now is almost 200 strong! Great food and really, really nice people, to the very last one. Hope you'll join us over on Yahoo some times, and across the table from us all very very soon! Rich Pawlak
