Thursday night Early Bird dinner
At Town Hall Grill (map) – at 6pm. (Note that Town Hall Grill is in Chapel Hill – Bora’s hood – and it’s a good drive from the Radisson Hotel, so please plan your travel to this event accordingly.)
The owners are keen on reading the reviews of the dinner on your blogs – they will link to them from their webpage. So please consider venturing into foodblogging for a day, if you don’t do it already.
The meal (appetizer/salad/entree/dessert) will cost $52. It will make it so much easier if you could all bring cash with you and give it to Bora when you arrive. Drinks – open bar.

Thursday night after-dinner drinks at the Radisson
For those of us getting in Thursday night but not early enough to make the dinner at Town Hall Grill, let’s try to meet for a drink at the hotel bar. Maybe around 9? (Of course, folks who are going to the dinner are also cordially invited to drink with the late-early arrivals, too!) — Janet Stemwedel
I’m gonna do both. Looking forward to a drink without kids.—PalMD
I’m up for both as well. —Bjoern Brembs
I won’t arrive in NC in time for dinner, but I’ll definitely be up for a drink after I check in – Peggy Kolm
