Winterlicious 2011 & Anime North room stuff & Katsucon update

[sakurak]

So I've been decidedly not on the ball about Winterlicious stuff this year. Reservations begin tomorrow, bleh. It's from January 28th to February 10th. Anyone interested in going? I'm open for either lunch or dinner and most days so long as it's not a Thursday (possibly not Tuesday either). We can narrow down the days based on who's interested

I think Cin & I are going to go to Senses for the dinner, anyone else that wants to join is welcome :) - (won't make reservations until the 13th anyways as I don't have an AMEX card LOL)

[sakurak]

The Amex card is only handy for places like Canoe, I find. Although I'm not that interested in their menu this time. Have you two decided when you're going? (Their lunch menu looks pretty decent, too.)

Not set on a date yet, but probably a weekend night near the end of the month (since weeknights and work are too unpredictable).

I'm interested in Winterlicious, especially since I missed out on Summerlicious. We'll just have to plan around my wonky schedule.

[sakurak]

Certainly. :3 What is your work schedule like during those 2 weeks?

[chibik3r0]

Off 28th - 30th
Nights 31st/1st
off 2nd/3rd
nights 4th - 6th
off 7th/8th
nights 9th/10th
off 11th - 13th

Hmmmmmmmmmm...maybe the 2nd? Wednesday? Feel like doing a dinner again? :D Or we could do a weekend lunch. Though weekends are getting a tad harder for me to do these days...

I'm in for Winterlicious. Possibly can't do the 29th/30th, otherwise looks fairly open.

Don't have the time to look at many of the menus, and honestly I'm probably up for just about any of them. From the lot that I did skim: I've always kind of wanted to eat at Bodega, largely because I worked on a previous version of their website and met the chef/owner, but that might be best done outside of *licious, menu doesn't grab me. Centro would be nice to go back to, and the menu interests me. North 44 menu also looks interesting.

Like I said though, up for just about anywhere. Also, and as I recall we discussed this once (after the summerlicious dinner?), I'd be up for the occasional indulgence in hitting one of the high end restaurants outside of *licious-time, for the full experience.

Hmm, now tempted to try and organize this... say once every couple months, do a small group dinner at one of the top places in the city. Wonder what the interest would be like.

[sakurak]

I'd be up for it, the small group dinner. I've always wanted to do that, too, actually, and wasn't sure who else would be interested in it.

Okee, I'll take a look at those menus during my lunch break tomorrow (if work hasn't blocked the site :p) and update the post then~

[lostinataraxia]

Yes, AN room.

I'd do Winterlicious, doesn't matter when since I have no set work hours (I stayed up really really late last night watching Breaking Bad, so I started work early in the morning then slept noon-6). Rosewater was pretty good when I was there last month.

[sakurak]

I've updated my post with a quick list. Want to help me narrow it down some more? :3

I'm up for winterlicious... Dates are indifferent for me right now, as is the menu... If it's food... I shall eat it... I'm mostly in it for the company ^_^ if the menu's get narrowed down by others I might throw a vote in... But for now I'll just go with what others feel like

[sakurak]

Okee. I tossed in a bunch that looked interesting so you can take a look at the list and see what (and when) appeals to you. :)
