This is purely a self-serving bump. Before I call to make reservations, I’d like to make sure that 6 is our final number. So… is it? ---

Hey guys: Would love to, but I can’t. But enjoy Alice’s! Just make sure **everybody** has the Crabshack Bread so that no one is left out of the garlic fest. 😉 And word to the wise - stay clear of the ribs. It’s definitely **not** among their core compentencies. Everything else I’ve had there has been great. D18 ---

I’ll have to post my regrets too, I’m afraid. As things turn out, I’ll be arriving back from a business trip at midnight Friday, so I will be unable to attend. But I hope you all have a great time ( **Sunspace** , you’ll have to fill me in on the details), and I hope I can make the next one. Have fun, all! ---

My regrets as well… unfortunately I’m working until 6. Blah. I’m sorry. ---

The obligatory camera will be present; at least, mine will. Looks like I may even be able to get tomorrow off work too, which would absolutely ROCK! Sorry to those who can’t make it ☹ We’ll have an extra beer or two for you 😃 ---

Damn. I live **across the street** from Square One, and you had to pick the one day my parents are coming down. But it’s my 30th birthday, so raise a glass for me. If it turns out they can’t make it until Saturday… 🙂 Hmm, better add another chair to the reservation. ---

Well Rick, you could always pretend that something unexpected came up and could they please come Saturday instead? 😉 Btw, we won’t be partying at Square One but rather downtown after all. ---

We have a reservation! Place: Alice Fazooli’s downtown, 294 Adelaide St. W. (at John St.) Time: 6 pm, for 7 people (in case RickJay makes it; if not, the extra chair will be for Kim’s purchases) 😃 Date: November 23 See you there! P.S. Thank goodness for preview! Reservation’s under my name, Anne. ---

Does anyone know the nearest parking lot to AF’s? (And maybe what the rate is? Cash is tight this time of year.) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Kwyjibo \* > \*\*Does anyone know the nearest parking lot to AF’s? (And maybe what the rate is? Cash is tight this time of year.) \*\* I used to work around the corner from Alice’s, and the parking is disgustingly expensive on Friday and Saturday nights, now that this portion of town has been transformed into the :tada!: Entertainment District. Since you’re coming in from KW, you may want to park at Yorkdale (free) and take to subway downtown. And guys, if yer looking for lots o’ laffs after Alices, Playdium has opened a downtown venue just around the corner from Alice’s. That is, of course, if you haven’t drunk yourselves silly at dinner time! 😉 ---

I’m gonna take the subway down, and I’ve got my route planed out. (Man, it’s been years since I was on the subway.😃 ) ---

This could’ve my first Dopefest, HOWEVER, we are leaving for Indiana for the weekend on Thursday at 5AM. ☹ Pity, that. I can see the restaurant from my office window. Ah, well, enjoy the crabshack bread for me. I’ll eat a piece of garlic on Friday in your honour.
