the op might not normally need a res, but with the impending RNC and LBV’s high profile as one of the best restaurants in town i would *highly* rec calling ahead, as a lot of folks are already in town for the convention and...

I started a topic on the Midwest board for comments on the story on chow about low cost places in the Twin Cities to eat during the RNC convention here. I wanted to see what people on the Midwest board thought about the list of...

You’re bound to get a few of these as the long weekend approaches and based on the recent few threads it looks like everybody in NYC is going to be in Montreal (myself and wife, included). It’s easy to blame this on...

I’m avoiding all NYC’s RNC madness this week with a quick trip up to my favorite island, Nantucket. Spent all my childhood summers up here, but haven’t been back in 5 years or so. Any favorite places to...

The poster expressed a desire to stay out of the subways. It will be the week of the RNC.

, & your friends at home will be so jealous! LOL! on the flip side of the coin, & without trying to get political at all, it’s safe to say the RNC will clog up traffic and finer restaurants on that side of the river, with...

The menus have been missing from their website ever since the RNC (I stalk the website regularly!). I hope they bring them back soon as I like being able to check out menus before we choose where we feel like going on any...
