I've heard a story of a girl that was highly allergic to shellfish, and went with a group to a steak and seafood restaurant. She thought that she'd be safe if she just ordered a stake, but ended up dying. :shock: If I was that allergic, I'd avoid a such a place like the plague.

Truva will be sending me their special party menus. Basically there will be a $35 pp option, $45, and maybe another.

As for that other stuff.... really? Really?

Ok, so right now there are 2 choices and they need to be made pretty quick.

First is which restaurant to choose - Truva or Sweet Georgia's Juke Joint (or keep looking for some other place).

Second is which menu to choose.

Both restaurants are already getting other people making reservations for DragonCon, so we really need to move on this.

I'll start a Poll thread and give it 5 days to run. Hopefully we won't lose our spot in that time!

I'm OK with either but my finances just took a hit so I went for the $40pp because its the medium range and seemed to have a nice selection.

Thanks again guys for working on this!!

Yeah, not voting doesn't really help. Unless you're happy with the Sweet Georgia Gold package, because that one looks like the one we're going with unless people vote a different way soon!
