I've wanted to try this place since it was voted the #2 Best Greek restaurant in the Hartford Advocate's Readers poll (also voted best restaurant and best pizza)!! Looks like there is plenty of parking. Yumm....spanakopita, moussaka, artichoke hearts white pizza!! Here is their website: http://cavostavern.com/index.php

As always: Please be courteous and come on time, be sure to change your RSVP if you can't make it at least 48 hours in advance. I will collect $1.00 toward the costs of running this meetup at the event.

Udupi Bhavin (don't ask me how to spell or pronounce it!) 10/7/09 at 7:00pm is sure to delight your taste buds without spending a lot. Reviewers say "Udupi is the best all-vegetarian restaurant in the area. A warning - it is no frills. Paper plates, plastic utensils, no art on the wall, cheap-o tables and chairs, cafeteria style - but the best damn food you will ever eat" and "The staff is hilarious and helpful with the intimidating menu. Try the Samosa Chaat, Batura is amazing, Mango Lassis - another yes. I've also had bisi bele bhath (??name??), it's a rice and lentil dish with vegetables, and the dosas are great. You really can't go wrong. Bring $20 and eat like a queen!"

Plenty of parking. No alcohol served, but you are invited to bring your own. I will collect $1.00 from attendees to defray costs of running this group. PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE AND SHOW UP IF YOU R.S.V.P. "YES"!!

Since this is cafeteria style - pay at the counter when you order, you may arrive anytime between 6:30 to 7:30, I plan to be there at 7:00pm. I am putting a limit of 20 people, but if you end up on a wait list - come join us anyway. The manager said he would make room. The more the merrier!

We have a fun filled event planned for you...a debate, a Q & A session, some role playing and a ton of laughs. All done in a structured setting designed to promote a better understanding of the opposite sex.

I have a couple of friends who rave about the Waterview Cafe (Manchester Country Club) but they always go when they finish golfing (I don't golf ... yet) and decided to try the place. Seating is limited so this will be a small gathering. Please make sure that if you RSVP "YES" you show up.

The websit is: http://www.mancc.com/waterviewcafe.htm but does not give much info.

I will do a larger meetup the following week.

This time...we go to the New York Deli experience, right here in our own back yard...Rein's New York Style Deli in Vernon! Just like Aunt Sadie used to make in her kitchen...to warm our tummies.

For over thirty years it's been just like coming home - Rein's Deli, serving traditional New York style Jewish Deli...food that feeds the soul & warms the heart. TM

Founded in 1972, Rein's Deli was the answer to the search for a good corned beef sandwich by Bob Rein, who with his wife Betty and brother Bernie, brought authentic New York Style Jewish deli to New England.

At Rein's Deli in Vernon you may indulge yourself with their homemade soups, mounds of savory hot pastrami and corned beef on rye, hand-cut lox layered on cream cheese laden bagels, crisp potato pancakes, knishes, delectable cheese blintzes and creamy hand made cheesecake from New York. And that's just a sampling of their enormous menu!
It is a family owned and operated business where the customer is always # 1.You may select your favorite deli treat, cheeses, salads, and smoked fish, sandwiches, etc. And don't leave without taking a peek in their display case filled with the most heavenly homemade desserts. Any or all of their goodies are available to take home.

So, for those who know great deli, coming to Rein's Deli is like coming home. For the Rein and Hurwitz families and their staff at Rein's Restaurant, it's like opening their home to friends.

Please join us for a night in old New York.

Rein's is located at 435 Hartford Turnpike (Exit 65 off I-84), Vernon, CT 06066
