There is an addition of one lady, Nancee, from the ChileHead Mailing list.

I talked to Rich at the restaurant today and he informed me that the Liquor store that is closest to the restaurant is owned by a cranky old guy who only stays open until he gets tired, and that Sunday in Summertime is particularly tiring, so you might want to lug your particular choice of BYO in.

Looks like we are 18 people.

As we added 3 more folks since I chose the appetizers I added a course of Spring Rolls to the appy listing. I also specified that 2 of the 3 Mussel appetizers be mild and one be medium.

There is no problem with 18 to 20 folks from ordering off the menu, so these fears may be laid to rest (Is that layed? I can never figure that out, one is obscene... :shock: )

Looking forward to seeing you all!

Any last minute  Thai diners are welcome.

I asked folks at ChefsTable.com, ChileHeads and FoodWine and only got one response.

Their loss!

Mark, I sent you an email last night, guess it never got to you. Anyhow, I was unsure at the time if I could make it and was wondering if letting you know this AM would be too late to respond. But it's a moot point because other commitments have come up. Hope everyone has a great time!

It would have been doable, but alas as you say it is moot. :unsure:

Thank you =Mark for planning the evening. Had a great time and food was super. I'll let everyone post about the food. I had chicken chow mein and Lowell had wonton soup.
