Thank You Dinner for Mark [Events]

2007 Oct 11
Hi All,

I am organizing a small event for the OttawaFoodies crew, as a thank you to Mark a.k.a Fresh Foodie (owner of OttawaFoodies) for all his hard work and dedication. This is NOT AT ALL an excuse to get together to drink beer. Anyone who is a member on this site is invited! Details follow below:

Date: Tuesday October 16, 2007 (Next Tuesday Night)
Location: Pub Italia (I don't have reservations yet, but will when I get an idea of how many people are interested.)
Time: 7:00pm
First Round of Beer is on ME!

Please respond to this thread if you are interested, and either email me (Pete.In.Ottawa @ gmail . com) or send me a private message with your contact information.

Cheers,
Peter

BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I'm so sorry that I'll have to miss it since I am now a Reginite (Reginian? Reginer?) masquerading as an Ottawa foodie (don't kick me out...please? *sniffle*). I wish this had been a few weeks earlier!

Thanks for putting this event together Pete! It'll be my first visit to Pub Italia and I'm looking forward to it.

BTW, nobody needs to thank me for anything. This is just a fun opportunity to meet some of the other people from here.

And FiH, what do you mean we're not worth a wee WestJet airplane ticket?? ;-)

Just wanted to say publicly I'm sad I can't go, but thanks for the site, Mark! :D

2007 Oct 12
I will definitely show up for a spell. What fun!

2007 Oct 12
There is a small chance I'll make it (hey, free beer!) but it's a busy time of year so it's not likely. But I'll be there in spirit! Have fun everyone.

Hi - This is a great idea!! I'd love to come, but can't - it my wedding anniversary and my husband might be upset if I ditched him in favour of a night out with Mark and the Ottawa Foodies.

FiH: You're not alone! I'm a (hopefully not to be much longer) Torontonian, who had to leave Ottawa for grad school. I come here to reminisce about all the old Ottawa restaurants that I miss!

2007 Oct 13
Jimmy and I will definitely be there!

2007 Oct 13
I'd love to come, but can't - ballroom dancing on Tuesday night.

2007 Oct 14
I have other plans for that night but would be very interested in a meet-up - maybe in November?

2007 Oct 15
I also ballroom on Tuesday night! =)

If anyone else (other than zymurgist... got you counted) is thinking on coming please let me know so I can adjust the reservation if required.

Not feeling good today...would've loved to go though! Definitely take pics please!

2007 Oct 16
Hey, we had a blast! Thanks very much Pete for your effort setting this up, and also for your generosity. It was fun to see Pam and Jimmy again and good to meet Momomoto.

I think we talked more about food than we did about parasites, so I think we're all good. ;-)

2007 Oct 16
Parasites? Haha, do we all want to know? ;)

2007 Oct 17
Agreed. That was definitely good times. Glad to meet everybody, and I am totally looking forward to the next social function. Thanks again, Mark, for this fantastic web page, and thanks Pete for getting the ball rolling.

The parasites? All you need to know, Candice, is that they cure asthma. And sometimes are pokey.

2007 Oct 17
You're welcome everyone. You guys forgot to mention that we decided to have the next one at the Gloucester Moxies! ;-)
