Saturday night dinner at Delancy Street???

Is this a specific reference of which I am unaware? In any case, Saturday night dinner anywhere sounds good.

Megan, it is down on the Embarcaderro... Delancey Street. Beautiful views, good food, good cause, reasonable prices and parking.

I will get an e-mail out to the locals with timing later today.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Delancey is difficult about reservations for large parties, IIRC. Like, requiring a prix fixe menu, etc. They could have changed things, but that was my experience.

Whereever it is, we'll want reservations ASAP. That's going to be a busy, be-costumed night. We'll also probably want to stay away from anything vaguely Castro-ish. (Which is too bad, because otherwise I'd suggest Home or Lime.)

Juliana - I hadn't had that problem with Delancey - but I also hadn't thought about the date. At least the location is fairly away from most of the party areas.

I will get an e-mail out tonight to count heads - or folks can start e-mailing my profile. So far I think we have Val, me, Megan, juliana (?), -t, Lee, Sparky (?)...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Park Chow, on 9th Ave. near Lincoln, has a huge upstairs area (divided into three semi-separate rooms, so there's space for larger parties to chatter away without drowning everyone else out) and does take reservations, as long as you've got at least 8 people. It's in the Sunset, so not terribly central, but at least it's far from any Halloweenie activities and right off the N Judah line. And there's been one big Buffista meal there before, 3-4 years ago, and they accommodated about a dozen of us comfortably.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's where you sent me, right, JZ? It was a good place.

Yes, P-C. The place where, when you called, Emmett was yelling over my shoulder, "Tell him to get the ginger cake!"

Park Chow, on 9th Ave. near Lincoln

Works for me bus-wise. And I didn't get to try it the other day when I was in the neighborhood.

How's the parking at Park Chow?

For cars, parking is mostly teh suck. For motorcycles, it should be a good bit easier. Best bet for finding free parking, assuming a short walk is okay, is on Lincoln between 7th and 10th Aves (PChow is on 9th near Lincoln), or possibly on either 8th or 10th Ave between Lincoln and Irving (non-metered, permit parking, which is fine on weekends). There's also a smallish metered parking lot nearby, entrance on 8th between Irving and Judah.
