    Hopefully. I'm still trying to get caught up on work. Maybe we could do something further north - maybe Molica's on GOG?

    I worked for the Biondi's @ the Villa back in the mid 70's. Carla, the youngest daughter runs the place now.
    Best Italian food this side of Chicago. You cant go wrong If you'all decide for this place.
    I'm in Wisconsin till the end of the week or I would join.

    We usually have a few folks meeting for dinner on Wednesdays at 6 p.m. If we're lucky, we'll have a consensus on location by mid-afternoon. Anyone is welcome to show up--I look forward to seeing you one of these times.

    I'm in for whatever too.

    Sparky and I were talking about The Dive on 31st and Pikes Peak yesterday.

    I've never had Caribbean food though. Sounds fun.

    Laurie and I were hoping for Salsa Brava - either Briargate or Rockrimmon. Would either of those be an option for tonight?

    Salsa Brava at Briargate used to be one of my favorite spots. Three of the last two times we were there, I've had non-food items in my food. The last time was the big coffin nail. I had some plastic or something in my entree, and when the manager was informed, she reduced the meal and gave us a free desert. That was nice, until the desert had a wire in the ice cream. They are dead to us, now.

    But, go ahead and give them a shot. Maybe you'll get lucky.

    Rockrimmon location? Another option? We were, mostly, looking for something a little further north than normal.

    Anyone eaten at that brew pub out in front of the Hollywood Theater off Interquest, next door to Cheddars? Good, bad, indifferent?

    We stopped in for appetizers before a movie a few days ago. Looks pretty good. We want to go back with more time.

    Avoid Cheddar's unless you're looking for fair to mediocre cafeteria food.

    That brewery sounds good to me or Salsa Brava Rockrimmon.
