mdt Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Pardon the ignorance but when does HH start and where tonight? We are starting at Circle Bistro. I think most of us are getting there around 6pm. There is also talk of hitting Palena as well. Looks like we will have a good crowd tonight. Anyone else coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Sorry, not this time. We will be at Tonic at 7:30 with a host from a different forum, if anyone would like to stop by for a drink. We have a 10pm show afterwards so won't be hanging around all night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannah Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Not us - Hitchhiker's Guide opens tonight, and since I've never once managed to get home from a work-night happy hour sooner than 11pm, doing both won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erin Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I just learned that my car is ready at the shop and I need to pick it up before they close today; however, I should still be able to come back downtown and participate unless home calls or I'm significantly delayed.

Gastro888 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Thanks for the info. I'm unsure if I can make it tonight - I will try my best. If not, y'all have fun and chow down on some Palena grub for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Just a heads-up. The Flower Mart at the National Catherdral will be next weekend. The ladies of the church always have a "lobster roll" stand on the Friday of the two-day festival. (I believe they sell crab cakes on Saturday.) I was introduced to this several years ago by my late friend, Carolyn Llorente, in whose name we are redesigning and replanting that traffic triangle by the 7-11 in Adams Morgan. They sell out early, so if anybody here is a foodie/gardener email me if you want have a lobster roll. They cost $6. It helps to carry some paper plates, napkins, and S&P. The Bishop's Garden is usually available to eat in relative quiet among the flowering gardens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacques Gastreaux Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I'd like to know more about what the "$16 bar tart" includes. I've heard no comments regarding 21P or Poste so I guess the survey says: Marcel's." Does anyone know if they have any sort of happy hour specials? And with regards to "the Grill," I was there today and I saw Busboy in the line and also I think Craig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacques Gastreaux Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Personally, I'd rather do 21P. I've seen very few reviews of the place and I'd sort of like to save Marcel's for later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunnyJohn Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I'm open to whatever the consensus dictates -- in other words 21P would be a fine place to investigate through a HH visit.

hillvalley Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 And why would you never get there? And I agree that we need an explanation. Insert standard hillvalley speech about how underpaid and unappreciated teachers are in this country plus some ramblings about tuition payments here.

Jacques Gastreaux Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 time? It opens at 11:45. If you get there much past noon, the line is long and it is hard to find a place to sit outside.
