Does this mean you're actually coming?

[JPL]

Just need to double check the date of the Yankees game

[kakn7294]

Any idea what time all this might be happening? I have tix to the Yankees game on Sunday.

[mouseketeer mom]

Is Heartland Brewery like a bar? I was going to bring my two girls, they're 14 and 12.

[Jared]

Don't worry! Heartland Brewery is totally appropriate for your girls. It's a restaurant with a bar attached, but it's completely wholesome and friendly. Here's the Web site.

[TikiGoddess]

Heartland's fine with me... it was nice and quiet last year, great to be able to chat and not have to shout. I will most likely be bringing my 5 yr old DD (her first trip to NYC!).

What about the tea place that Ellen mentioned for last year's meet?

[OhGee]

Just wanted to throw this restaurant idea out to you all. The Papillon Bistro is around the corner from WOD near Park on 54th. It is a nice place and has a great quiet area for groups. I also happen to know the owner so I know he would be happy to accommodate us.

[BronxTigger]

OhGee! I hope you can make this one! I know you were busy the last two.

[MinnieMommie]

I don't really care where we eat and will leave that for you NY people who have actually eaten at the places mentioned. I am most interested in visiting the WOD so as long as it will be easy to get to there from where we eat I am all for whatever you select. One question: Has anyone eaten at Hard Rock and is it any good?

I haven't eaten at the NYC one...I have eaten at the La Jolla, CA one and the food was just like any other hamburger joint along the lines of Planet Hollywood or Rainforest Cafe...and similarly priced.

I'm with MinnieMommie...as long as its pretty easy to get to from the WOD store, I'm good! Also, as long as its family friendly too, it doesn't matter where we eat!! I'm so looking forward to the meet!

[smiles_rock]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to join all of you for the meet if that's ok with everyone.

We may try to make this meet as well. We'll just go with the flow so whatever everyone decides we're on board as long as it's family friendly

[Jared]

Bethany and agree Heartland Brewery is the best option, but we are still open for suggestions. Ellen, the New York group matriarch, has to approve any decision, and I haven't talked to her in a few days.

But right now, the tentative plan is we meet at noon at the World of Disney store, shop and browse for a while, then go eat. After lunch, we can do whatever.

Well, I guess I'm out! We'll be at Yankee Stadium at noon. I was hoping to be able to participate.

Awww, man! I was hoping you could come too!

It will be too late to meet for dinner, especially because a lot of people have a long way to travel.

Perhaps I can meet up with you for ice cream or pizza after the game. I do have to go back up to the Bronx after the meet!

[Jared]

I would be up for that, too. Hopefully, a few of us can go meet up after the regularly scheduled meet.

[BronxTigger]

Giovanni's Pizza at 149th and the Concourse would be good...only one train stop away from the Stadium but good pizza!

[kakn7294]

We're open to having a personal tour guide or two after the game and getting something to eat somewhere. We're actually coming back to Manhattan after the game so we can meet whomever is still there that late or we can meet you somewhere in the Bronx (just give me some directions!). Bethany, I still have your cell # from our trip last year - is it the same #? PM me if you need mine again or if yours has changed.
