Wizardworld Boston Forum Dinner 10-1-2005

[Alberto1975]

I am fine with Legal or Grill 23, or anywhere. Come on guys, SPEAK UP and let's figure out who will attend!

 

If noone else signs up, I say we all go to cgcfan's house for the dinner!

They have great food and a friendly environment!

I'm fine with either (would lean toward Grill 23). Question about Legals: do they have separate dining rooms for private parties? I know the Grill does.

According to the web site all the downtown locations do.

[rob_react]

Is this the crew? Anyone else? If this is it, how about a show of hands for Grill 23 or Legal Sea Foods? Since it's not a huge crowd, I'm actually going to switch horses in midstream and vote for Grill 23.

[Alberto1975]

Since I've never eaten at Grill 23, I say we go there. I've eaten at Legal before, so I might as well try a new place!

cgcfan?

 

Time? Some time after the show is over... We've not made it that far yet (although I think we should get this thing into gear over the next couple of days.)

Hey Rob count me and my daughter in.

 

If anyone is interested in carpooling from NW Jersey or eastern Pennsy let me know. You could buy a lot of comics with what you would save on gas. I'm flexible on when to leave for Boston.

[rob_react]

Cool.

[Sharkey]

Rob, I don't have a preference either place -- I'll leave it to the local experts. I like steaks as big as your head and I like local seafood. Don't think there's a loser in either option.

Got my WW tickets in the mail today!

[rob_react]

 

I'm going to call soon to see what I can do. Speak now or forever hold your peas and carrots.

[JuliusSeizure]

Sounds like a good crowd. Count me in. Do you need us to pay in advance?

[rob_react]

I'll let everybody know.

[rob_react]

Grill 23 is $98 per person for private dining. Regular reservations are available for 6:00.

 

I'll check Legal.

[rob_react]

They finally got back to me from Legal. For our little group the cost is about the same ($1000 food and drink minimum). Since the Grill 23 time is out of the question, I'm just going to go ahead and make regular reservations at one of the Legal locations...

UPDATE OF DOOM.

 

We've got resrvervations for 8:00 PM at Legal Sea Foods at Long Wharf. It's the most central of their locations and is in walking distance of Faneuil Hall, which means it's walking distance to a gazillion bars. There's a bar there we can meet at, or, alternatively we could meet at another of the (more colorful) bars in the area and head on over.

 

Leaving from the convention center it's basically a straight shot down 93 and won't take long at all.

Let me know if you have any questions.

[Sharkey]

Looks great, Rob. Thanks for doing the thank-less job of organizing this thing!

 

Do we need to pay in advance or at the dinner?

Thanks for doing all this Rob. For out-of-towners, I would suggest parking in the Boston Common underground garage or at the Theater District (if you can) and taking the T or walking to Long Wharf, if the weather's nice. You will save $20 or more over the Harbor garage.
