Subgroup of Boston Restaurants

If you are anything like us, you want to try all these great restaurants you hear people rave about but you never do. This is your opportunity to try new restaurants and meet new people along the way. Please note, we encourage you to be in this for the FOOD and FRIENDS! If you're looking for a hardcore networking event - you won't find it here, this is a relaxed group., We will change the neighborhood of the restaurants each month so we get to enjoy all areas of Boston and Cambridge. Areas include: April - Back Bay - Typhoon (Pan-Asian) & Casa Romero (Mexican) May - South End - Addis Red Sea (Ethiopian) & Masa (American, Southwestern) June - Cambridge - Cuchi Cuchi (International) & Tamarind Bay (Indian) July - North End - Eclano (Italian) & Taranta (Italian with Peruvian influences, Wednesday the 25th) August - Boston Waterfront - Meritage (seasonal American) October - Somerville -Tu Y Yo (Mexican)& Midwest Grill (Brazilian BBQ) November - Brookline - Fugakyu (Japanese/Sushi) & The Publik House (American fare) Each month, we choose diverse restaurants providing different dining experiences and cuisine. We meet every 2nd and 4th week of the month. Each month we post events for the restaurants we're going to and specific dates and times. We will eat on a Wednesday or Thursday at 7 PM.

Please view the events and RSVP as "Yes" by the date listed (if you RSVP as "Maybe" we will NOT include you in our Reservation number).

We encourage anyone to join even if you don't know anyone attending. Most of us have not met in person so its a great opportunity to meet people.

We ask three things of everyone who attends: 1. Plan to pay by cash. We split the food bill evenly and each person pays for their own drinks. If someone ordered something significantly pricier than everyone else, we ask that people be honest and pitch in accordingly. 2. Everyone stay until the check has been settled. 3. That there is no ordering of community alcohol unless one person plans on paying for the entire bottle. This way noone feels like one person drank more then another but the cost was split evenly.

We hope you can join us in good food, good drink, and good company!

      Okay, I have settled on B&G Oysters, Meritage, Evoo for dinner and L'Espalier for lunch this is from everyone's responses.


      L'Espalier: I have August 15th off so will have lunch there, let me know if you would like to join me.

      Let me know what day's look good for all of you for the three restaurants listed for dinner? I want to try only two other's as that will be a bit expensive to do any more. ;-) I was thinking August 14 and 21 or 22nd for dinner?

      Also, please respond to me by FRIDAY 07/25/08 noon, of this week as I want to make reservations ASAP.

      Smiles, Natalia

          It seems people are going away from http://going.com after the recent revisions to the site. I know I can't stand going on because all I have are problems most of the time the past 2 months! It sucks! Most people I talk with are limiting their time on here. It's a shame.

      I did not find out about the dinner until Natalia posted her message on here. I'm glad that she did.

      I think on the pre-updated going, I was receiving email notices whenever someone posted a dinner event.

      Hopefully, facebook will help get the word out better.

    Do I have any takers for Italian for one of the restaurant's for June??? I will set up the first restaurant but will leave the second restaurant organizing to to someone else. As it would be great to have two organizers so that we keep things mixed with different taste buds. ;-)
