Since I seem to have started this thread, I'll volunteer myself for this duty. Also, what day would everyone like to meet? I'm open for most anyday except Feb 14-17, and I hope I'm not alone. :-) >some more ethnic food ideas: > > dim sum in china town. last year i helped organize a ne.food > trip to chow chau city which was loads of fun and so inexpensive > for all the food we scarfed. Yummmmm... dim sum! I'd love dim sum. I think this is my final vote. I was visiting my wife at school last weekend and they had a dim dum tasting in her dorm. It was very good, but unfortunately it was just enough to get my appetite going and now I've had a hankering for it ever since. :-( > korean bbq is supposed to be great and fun. this is a place in > burlington. Sounds good. I don't think I've ever had it, though I'm game to try it. Any chance it would be like Mongolian bbq? > Indonesian Rijsttafel is served on sunday nights at the andover > inn. we had that once and it is wonderful. read this for more: > http://www.andoverinn.com/special_events/indonesian_rijsttafel.htm > we would have to assist in transporting some of us but it would > make for a very interesting evening out. this is only done on > sundays unless a large party books it on some other night. if > you order it, the whole table has to have it but it is worth it. Now this sounds very interesting. What exactly is Indonesian food like? Anything like Vietnamese? Speaking of which, is there a good Vietnamese place in Boston? We had just found one back in NC, but then we moved and I've only been to the one in Arlington center so I don't have much to judge by. >there are plenty of great places other than pubs to try out (not that i >dislike pubs). I second this thought. Pubs are nice, but I'd love to do something a little out of the ordinary. Plus since I don't drink, a lot of the reason for going is already gone. For some reason, Asian just really appeals to me lately. :-) Drew Drew Taylor JA[P|m_p|SQL]H http://www.drewtaylor.com/ Just Another Perl|mod_perl|SQL Hacker mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *** God bless America! ***
