I vote for Eat First... we can always try NBW another time.

Are we on for tonight or sometime in the future?

Sometime in the near future. Next Monday perhaps?

My work situation has been a real drag lately. I'm not sure when I can make it at this point-- even when I have the time, I'm not in the most social of moods by the end of the day :angry: . If anyone goes, make sure to put together a full review.

I would be up for it, but I am out of town next week. The following week I am home alone and would be completley free to do as I please.

Any day next week except Monday would work for me, and the following week should be ok too.

Anyone feel like dinner out soon?

I'm still in :angry:-mode at work, so I don't know from one day to the next whether I could get out to meet folks.

If you manage to arrange something let me know. I'll try to be :smile: or at least :hmmm:

I'm :biggrin: it's Friday anyway.

:huh:

I've heard the same but would be willing to give it a chance.

Or we could eat at Ella's or Matchbox and have a beer at RFD. Maybe even dessert - I have to try the "Beeramisu" eventually. :laugh:

RFD is a great idea, Heather; I've been wanting to try it since your original post awhile back. I'm all about Belgian beer--lambics in particular! I also like the idea of a drink there and burgers at Matchbox.

Al Dente is an expert on them. Ask him about Delirium Nocturnum. :wacko:

We put away a few there a couple months ago. Great great stuff.

OK, it's sort of a plan then. What day?

You should have seen me in Belgium. Or perhaps not. Their logo doesn't feature a pink elephant for nuthin.

Tomorrow (or today, when all of you will read this) is the only evening that works for me this week.

I've had Delirium Tremens, but not Delirium Nocturnum. Sounds like Delirium Nocturnum is the next stage! :blink: Al or Heather, can you elaborate on the differences? Just checked their beer list, and I'll be going straight for the Cantillon. :wub: [nostalgia]Man, I wish Brugse Tripel was available here (and Rodenbach Grand Cru easier to find--the 'skeller doesn't always have it).[/nostalgia]

Tomorrow huh? Let me see what's going on at home. I might be able to do it.

I fell love with everything byDe Dolle Brouwers at a Brickskeller beer tasting a few years ago. They sometimes have Oerbier in a can at the Brick, and I have scored a bottle of Boskuen at Sutton Place from time to time, but it would be in heaven if RFD would carry something from them on tap.

That tasting was concluded with about six keg lambic varieties. The best testing they've ever had, IMO.

Just to clarify, Heather, I meant I can go today (as in Tuesday). It was late Monday evening when I last posted (and why I said "today, when all of you who will read this"). My apologies, I should have been more clear.

Remember that idea about seeing what other eg types might be dining where you are?

Well, I'll start. :wink:

Anyone heading to Firefly tonight? Or where is everyone heading today?

PS Rocks, can you please edit the sub head for my poor grammar (lack of agreement)?
