You called, so I thought I'd sound in here. :)

A GTG sounds great, but as I told Shanghainese in another thread, my holiday plans are still as of yet undefined (still trying for a last-ditch island trip). So I'll have to be a tentative for now.

But the thought of hongshao rou with fellow Fodorites sure is enticing!

The 27th and 28th should both be good for me, though the Friday may be better. Of course, if we call ahead, I wonder if there could be a Peking Duck waiting for us?
Tengo.

It is a Shanghai restaurant, but they have Peking duck on their menu.

You know, I hadn't focused on that but I remember that one Chinese New Year's we had Peking Duck at Our Place, as part of a set menu. It was very good.

Yet, a couple years ago a restaurant "Peking Duck," opened on East 53d street, nearby. It is the second of two, the first one still being in Chinatown. They make a heck of a duck . . .
Hope to see you soon.

The 27th or 28th would work for me too.
Looking forward to a yummy lunch with interesting company.

I think a Peking duck would make a great appetizer for us! Keep us posted on the date and time!

Juggle and juggle, and Friday 12/28/07 lunch it is. Is there a way to change the title? Or should I start another thread?

i would start a new thread with new date and you might pick up more people...


wish our schedule would allow us to come...

bob and karen -- was hoping you could make the new date ...

I may be able to make lunch that day so count me in unless something dramatic happens.

I know I haven't been posting as much as I used to but hoping that will change and I want to meet some of the Fodorites who haven't been to the Boston GTGs.

I'd love to do this -- let me know the date you pick -- I'm close and it's the perfect time of year for me.
A thought too -- I've fallen in love with Thai Privilege Spa in SoHo -- they are an authentic Thai spa from the foot baths to the ginger tea and sawadee kah -- maybe some of us would like to book a treatment too?

laurieco -- I have started a new thread for the new date of 12/28 lunch, so please check it.
