<I'll drive Faina and another 2 Fodorites up! I'm not a crazy driver...>

I understand that Faina will drive YOU crazy. :-) ((b))

Hi Shanghainese! It's actually <b>musubi</b> but good try. Maybe there is a musubi press in your Japantown?

I'm looking forward to visiting your lovely city (and you) this year!

hi shanghainese, mahalo for the offer. maybe this year, and hopefully, melissa will be there. why? because she knows how to live, and have a good time. lol.

Too funny, Budman, thanks for the warning, I'll shower her with a couple of molotov cocktails before we go, and I can cuss in russian.

LOL Budman, you are so right!

Hey guys I had a similar experience at Longhi's- guess they reserve the dining room for special guests or something. My girlfriend wanted a booth and Mr. Charlie Longhi let us know that the booths were for larger parties than two. Okay fine but then when a local celebrity and his girlfriend walz in and get a booth know problem I have to wonder. I asked Charlie Longhi who crisply let me know that the gentleman was so and so and a definite VIP! Wow, I'll say, my mom and dad think I'm special does that count? Anyway, dinner was so so but it was sorta a bummer to go out and spend half my paycheck only to be put down in front of my girl.

The same thing happened to me at Longhi's with that manager, the owner's son! Took my fiance out to Longhi's to treat her to a special dinner, or supposed to be special. The food is not bad, expensive and only average, but okay, and the view is nice even though it looks out over the mall parking lot. We were in over the holidays and waiting for the table I went to use the restroom, come out and observe the manager Charlie Longhi having a very friendly conversation with my fiance. Fine no problem there until I put my arm around her and he gives me stink eye as if I'm moving into his territory, weird already. So we sit down, enjoy each others company as two in love do, and I have to leave again to call my supervisor, return to the table to see Mr. Longhi back and being real friendly again to my fiance. As I approach he gives me a glare and says to my fiance 'I work so and so nights and come in and visit me anytime' and then walks away. Of course I was not threatended and anyone who has seen this character would understand, but still, I could not believe he could be so rude to me. My fiance later told me she was shocked by his behavior and felt terrible about the situation. We had a great night nonetheless no thanks to Longhi's. Safe to say we won't be returning anytime soon.

How jolly! the last 2 posters above have similar ways to express themselves and only 1 post each! Makes you wonder... what's the...

Yeah, one time posters. Sounds like there's some agenda there? ((b))

Wasn't this GTG like 2-3 yrs ago?!?!?! :`(

Thanks for showing me and Mrs. Kal a goodtime.

Hope to see you all again soon. We may tack on 2 days in Hono on the way back this time because we never saw New Year's after a pop or 3 at Tradwewinds and our usual good dinner at Bullshed.!!!

&quot;Kuranosuke&quot;..the &quot;Norm&quot; of Longhi's! ;)

When I met Faina, I joined AAAAA because she drove me to drink.

We all had a great time. Especially ME, the Queen of Threesomes, and I had quite a few of those in December alone!

;)

So, Melissa is the Queen of Threesomes, and I call myself the Drama Queen - all that after meeting Kal?

Melissa, what is it he's doing to us? We gotta fight it ;)
