The more the merrier!! If we ever get a place hammered out! My mother suggested someplace called the Spaghetti Factory (?) or something. Any info? I e-mailed the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce to see if they could help but no info back yet.

Let me ask some who will know. Are we safe in choosing a place on Tyvola Rd or Independence Blvd (I think that’s what it’s called) (even with Tyvola changing names?)

I have a hobby. I have the world’s largest collection of seashells. I keep it scattered on beaches all over the world. Maybe you’ve seen some of it.

Actually, it’s a Spaghetti Warehouse, it’s just off of South Blvd. It has a semi-private area that we have used before for meetings/parties.  
The food is okay (good, not great) good beer selection. Service can be not so terrific, i.e. slow, but if the object is lingering over conversation that’s not a real problem.  
Phone number 704-376-8686.  
I hadn’t suggested that before because I was trying to steer ya’ll towards something more unique to Charlotte.

I will call them the first chance I get tomorrow and if everything goes good, I should have all the info set in stone tomorrow night. Don’t worry, Satan, I will personally e-mail everyone that I have addresses for and also post on the board!
