Ok as in the past we've done out Long Island dinners, I'm throwing out a date of Thurs Dec 28th at 7:30 PM at Smokin Als in Bay Shore for our "Holiday" dinner. All are welcome, drinks are on Nick V as usual. Please make a post if your plan on attending.
Sounds good Tommy but just keep in mind that Smokin Als is not big party friendly, could be an issue with a big turnout.. The date works fine though.
The Admin won't be able to make that date...maybe we should aim for the next day, Thursday the 28th?
Also, maybe we should try and find a more central location so that people from NJ and Westchester, etc would have an easier time joining? Even Manhattan?
Any suggestions?
Stop referring to me as "the Admin". :-p
But, yeha, date's not looking too good from here, as I'll be working.
If it gets closer and I still can't make it, I hope you folks have a fun time!!
Ok we'll do it on the 28th, the 29th works to.
Both days happen to be good for me, although I'd prefer the 28th as I have work early on the 30th. But honestly, don't plan this thing around me. Make sure a day is picked that works for most other people.
Well I'll say the 28th as a firm date.
Right now looks like the 28th works for me too...should be a fun night, maybe Tommy can show us his late night Taco Bell strategy :D
and his wee moments :shock:Quote:

Hey, I might actually be able to make one of these things! I would love to meet some of the faces behind the posts! This is still a few weeks away though, I will let you know as the date gets closer.
1930 on the Thursday works :)
I might actually be in town with some friends on the 28th, so if that materializes, I'll be sure to drop by! :)
Greets,

Ah, yes, the Long Island TOOL Chapter of NYCA :)
Actually, having spoken to Highheels, I am a bit confused.
We have a game at MSG that we'd like to go to on WEds Dec 27 but we'll pass if we have to. RED STORM!!!
Is this thing on Weds Dec 27 or Thurs Dec 28?? Seeking clarification.
Thursday the 28th.
and thanks for clarifying the "LONG ISLAND in the title too ;)
No problem ;)
Count me in!Quote:

I'm game...
google it to Bayshore. Google makes a good call, keeps you off Sunrise Hwy for most of the trip
My commute to my new job is kinda similiar. I take Atlantic to Merrick road right before the Meadowbrook take that to ocean pky to Robert moses parkway north. Get off at 27A heading east and once you get into town its a couple of minutes on your left. If you can't pick up Atlantic from Long Beack take 27A or just take loop parkway to ocean. Sunrise Highway sucks the big one.
Altantic? You mean the ocean drive? That is a swweet and relaxing drive. Seeing any deer this time of year?
I meant Atlantic ave in Oceanside, I take that instead of sunrise, I pick up the meadowbrook to Ocean parkway, yea sweet drive. Haven't see deer yet since I haven't been on it too late or near dusk, I am seeing a ton of them out east tho.
Ok, now that we have it all down and organized count me in!!! I heard only point and shoot cameras allowed at the restaurant. lol
If we end up eating in Smokin Als there won't be much room on the table for cameras. Unless you want barbecue sauce on it.Quote:

UGH...now looks like I'll be in St. Looie at this time. Make sure Tommy has some ribs for me. The ribs he had last time were a bit small. ;)
Ok if you would please let me know if you are going to attend or not. Also looks as if Smokin Al's has changed their Chef. The new Chef blows, so we are going to go down the street a couple of store fronts to our other favorite place Peninsula, they have the best Oriental food and sushi this side of the Great Wall of China. Please just let me know if your in. Below is the link for directions.

Tommy that was the lunch chef! LOLOL besides it's a good idea anyway, Smokin als food is the best of its kind but my closet is bigger than the dining room! Penisula is better for a big group and less noisy too since we will be shooting the **** as well I will attend and I want your Altima at my door step on time!
Are you serious? We are changing venue again?
I've got an irate pregnant lady on my hands.....and she's going to unleash hell. ;)
All said, Peninsula is great. Can't wait!
Mario it's 4-5 doors down, you can even park in the same spot!Quote:

So tru I got some take out at this other place and it sucked!Quote:

Again? We didn't change it at all, this is the first time. Peninsula can hold us better and the food is great! Smokin Als has lost our biz!Quote:

Anyway, the pregnant lady is a bit upset. She's been hearing about SMoking Al's and she feels robbed :(
Thanks....I have to live with it!
Yep, it was more of the same, you really can't do more than 4 people in that place it's so small. Typical storefront. You know Mario there is no law against taking your wife out to dinner, ya know.. Alone!Quote:

As much as I wish I could be there, I'll still be working in St. Louis. Have a drink for me guys, I'll be there in spirit!Quote:
