Maybe I should start a gofundme! haha

I’ve been to Drews a few times, always a great time there. I just hate missing out on epic meals like this!!

Joon, I’m pretty sure we have one spot available, so please keep us posted. Thx!

@joonjoon I’ve confirmed that we do have a seat available, so just let me know what you decide.

Tried Drew’s last night. What a wonderful treat. You are all in for a great food experience.

My only complaint - if it can even be called that - was the problem we had finding the door. If you arrive after dark you’ll see what I mean. Have faith - it is there.

Enjoy your meals.

Nice! What did you have?

I had the Empanada special, the NY strip, and the Beignets for dessert. My wife had oysters to start, the house salad, the salmon special, and the chocolate/pretzel tart for dessert.

Everything was exactly as it should have been.

We’re in, I’ve got 30 coming in from Houston on our chartered DC3, last time the rubber bands broke but we’ve doubled up on them.

Not to denigrate the venerable aircraft still going strong but we’re going cheap with a very used one.

You’re welcome cj. I’m just glad that I can finally get to participate in a HOdown with the Central Jersey crew. Us Northerners don’t get down south too often (except for Drew’s) :wink: I have been burning extra calories on the treadmill this week in preparation for this big meal :grinning:

By the way, the reservation is under Eli in case anybody gets there before me. Anyway it will be the only reservation at 4PM :grin:

So I was sitting in Drew’s parking lot wondering where everybody was when I realized the HODown was called for 4 PM :grin:

You should keep your car parked there. It’s hard to find parking in that small lot :grinning:

I’m currently eating my normal breakfast… studies have shown that if you starve yourself before a huge meal that you fill up FASTER (I’m looking at you, @corvette_johnny)
