Just as long as none of us wind up like Rico on Six Feet Under after visiting their version of Shakers.

Then again maybe some of you won't mind  :raz:

No, he got it good, Nate's the one all messed up.

From Park & Orchard's parking lot directly in front of the restaurant, take a right hand turn on Hackensack street. First traffic light is Paterson PLank road, Candelwyck Diner is on the corner. Go straight on Hackensack Road.

The second light is Hoboken Road. There's a church on the corner of Hackensack and Hoboken.

Turn right (toward 17) and go down hill two blocks, Sonoma Grill is on your right. I estimate it as a three minute drive or a ten minute walk from P&O.

If you're going directly to Sonoma Grill, Hoboken Road has a marked exit off NJ 17 Southbound (only). If you're northbound, you have to make a huey upwards somewhere.

Apparently it's easier still to dictate the conversation and in effect, kill the conversation.

I think you can see Shakers from Sonoma Grill (that's the way it looks on the map, anyway).

No doubt...just across the street...walking from P&O to Sonoma however is a bit more energetic than we need to be...and Lou I am not sure if there is a TV at Sonoma's bar but the timing of this should work out that we get across the street to catch the third period of the game at a minimum, and the way these two teams are going that should be just the start of it!

Guys

There is TV at the bar. Lou -- You can smoke at the bar. Pretty stupid habit though :blink::raz:

Wish I could be there.

lou, will you call to tell them you're bringing?

Yeah, I'll give them a head's up

Just called SG to ask about corkage fee and if we can bring the wine.

Host/Owner answered and said "We don't normally do that. Will you be ordring wine in addition?

My response, " Yes, we'll be having cocktails and I'm sure some white wine".

His response, "That would be fine. As long as I can have a taste".

My kind of guy.

Is he the guy in the Mummy movie? Nice bod, but that Brendan/Brandon guy is cuter.

Why are we discussing this? You should be working on salt and pepper soft shells for Sunday, and instead you are instigating discussions about wrestlers turned movie actors! :biggrin:

The night had an entirely different tone shortly after I spilled the cream at the bar at Sonoma Gill...that is when we shifted gears....would everyone agree?

was that before or after you struggled for 15 minutes trying to divide 500 by 5.
