In [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=169554), **NurseCarmen** and I came up with a date, time and location for a DopeLunch. **Date** : Friday, March 28th **Time** : 11:00 AM (In order to avoid Friday lunch crowds.) **Location** : Marketplace Restaurant, 1042 Nicollet Mall (I’m guessing on the address – it’s not in the book – but it’s directly to the left of Chipotle, located at 1040 Nicollet Mall). [Map](http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&addtohistory=&address=1042+Nicollet+Mall&city=Minneapolis&state=MN&zipcode=&homesubmit=Get+Map) I’ll be there a teence early with a sign that says **SDMB**. Marketplace serves delicious, affordable soup, sandwiches, salads and pizza. Stand in line, order your food, pay and have a seat. A server will bring you your order at your table. The restaurant has a comfortable, casual ambiance with funky decor. Hope to see y’all there! ---

Is the marketplace have the same food as the one in the basement of Dayton’s? I might be doing the no carbo diet, and I need some options. If the food looks irresistable, I might take a day off the diet. ---

D’oh! I just registered in January, and I’ve been wondering if there were ever any Doper get-togethers in the Twin Cities. I’d love to be there, but I will be traveling on business on Friday the 28th. I’ll look for the next one. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Gazelle from Hell \* > **Q.N. Jones, bring your bad self.** If only. I’m going to be out of town on business through Friday night. Unfortunately, my superiors don’t understand the importance of DopeLunches. ☹ Have fun–I will want a full report. ---

And WELL worth taking a day off from a diet. 😃 ---

**brianmelendez** , sorry to hear you can’t make it. If this one goes well, we’ll schedule another one soon. **Dangerosa** , work hard this week so you can make it! 😃 **Xgemina** , we missed you by a weekend… sorry to hear. **chique** baby, MarketPlace is very reasonable. Barbecued chicken pizza is less that $6.00; el yummo. **Q.N.** , it’s time for you to quit that job. **Elenfair** , no fair! C’mon… slide us into your schedule. Pweeeeze? ---
