Larry,

Lol, if I would bring all those notebooks along, I wouldn’t even be able to walk anywhere.

I have about 10 big notebooks full of notes and formulas, and I even have a hard time finding stuff in them. Just about everything I have experimented with is here on the forum. I guess I will be the oldest bugger to tag along with all of the other members.

Happy New Year to you and all the other members of the forum! A toast to everyone!

Norma

Craig should be back from ~~slaughtering defenseless animals~~ his hunting trip tomorrow, so let's ramp up the planning then. Larry, out of all of us, I think you know Roberto the best, so if you did want to give him a heads up and see if he could give us some of his time, that would be really great.

We're back from saving mankind from rogue deer.

I'm really excited we're going to have such a great group!

If my count is correct, the following 7 have confirmed (always room for more):

Me
Adam
John
Larry
Scott
Norma
Steve

I don't care where we go. Larry, if you can set something up with Roberto, I'm certainly all for Keste. I'd also like to hit several places if possible. I have not been to Donatella, Pizza Mezzaluna, or Numero 28 which are all pretty close to Keste. But it makes no difference to me what we decide. What do you local folks think is best?

Looking forward to it!

CL

Larry,

I don’t know what the other members prefer, but Steve and I are taking the bus up and back to NY the same day. The last bus out of Port Authority is 12:30 am Friday morning. We need to be at Port Authority for the bus a half an hour before time so we will get a seat. There aren’t any reservations for seats on the bus. I have taken the same bus to NY many times and if we get there too late we might not get a seat.

Larry,

Sorry, I will correct my last post. I meant the last bus is at 12:30 am Friday morning.

I don't mean to be a pain, but I don't know if we would be able to get to our bus in time by taking the subway back to Port Authority if we met Roberto at Keste's at 9:00 pm. Steve and I are going to travel on the subway wherever all the members decide to go.

Norma

I wish I could go. I have been trying to pick up a trip with a downtown layover in NY for the last few days. The only trips open are to Maui.

5pm at Keste works for me. Any of the other places mentioned would be great.

Larry (and anyone else), if you want to meet someplace before, I can probably do that too. I'm pretty much free all afternoon.

Norma, I'll be there on the subway with you!

i will tell roberto 5 pm thursday. i have two dinners that would like to attend. is it ok? they are both big neapolitan pizza lovers .

scott123 · « **Reply #36 on:** January 01, 2012, 08:59:30 PM »

Keste is a block and a half away from Joe's. It would be sacrilege for me to be in the area and not stop by for a slice. We don't have to do Joe's as a group, though, as I really can't guarantee that it will be any good. Norma was disappointed when she went, although Conan had a segment on them in October and the pizza looked pretty good.

thezaman · « **Reply #37 on:** January 01, 2012, 09:05:00 PM »

we could get a whole pie, the dinning room will seat all of us. i liked joe's ny pie, loved the sicilian.
