Toronto GTG lunch on October 12

Hi Toronto Fodorites,

As you likely know, annetti and N are visting Toronto for a five-week home exchange.

Morningglory and I are getting together with them for lunch on Wednesday, October 12 at noon at Ferraro on Eglinton, between Spadina Road and Avenue Road. It's a casual Italian restaurant, pretty good pasta, pizza, salads, etc. and friendly prices. Here's the website with menus and map:

There's metered parking on Eglinton, free parking on the side streets and a metered parking lot at the back.

So far it's the four of us which is just fine but you're more than welcome to join us.

Anyone?

That would be great, irec! So now it's

annetti
N
morningglory
muskoka
irec
Mr. irec
me
and possibly BAK

So that's 8 (counting BAK). I don't think we'll have trouble getting a table at lunchtime but maybe I'll make a reservation just in case. I'll make it under Fodor. Noon Wednesday. Be there or be square!

Yes, on the Asia forum they spoke very highly about the Bishop Lei and we got a harbour view suite.

The guy said no reservations are necessary so whomever gets there first (maybe me), just get a table for 8 and say it's for the fodors group. Then everyone else can just ask for that table when they get there. See you tomorrow.

irec, my sister and BIL are in China right now!

Now I've moved into the "maybe" column - my noon meeting might not happen.....won't know until the last moment so will just turn up if that's OK.

That would be great, Elizabeth! I'm sure we'll have plenty of room.

Do we want pictures? Is someone bringing a camera?

"Yes I am female!"

Well, either that or a very sophisticated female impersonator!

It was so nice to see fodorites again and to meet new ones. I'm sorry that BAK and Elizabeth couldn't make it, though. And I came away green with envy for everyone's travel plans.

(Memo to self: win lottery asap)
