Just a comment on your request for directions: It is *extre-e-eeeemely* easy to get to Southpoint Mall from Raleigh - it is *right* at the Fayetteville Road exit off of I-40 in Durham. Hard to miss even if you wanted to.

Thanks.....I'm gonna have to do a dry run sometime before. The earlier time works fine for me also.

Hi everyone! I'll be PM'ing everyone soon who has said they will be going to the meet re: menu selection at Maggianos. Basically to give you a brief overview they have three styles of meals we can choose from the difference being in price and variety (from what I've gotten off their website www.maggianos.com) It looks like the five course family style (apps, salad, pasta, entree and dessert) would be the best value at $13.95 per person (and it is all you can eat-hey are we back in Disney?). The next step after that would be deciding on what two choices from each of the above courses to pick and here's where it might get frustrating because they have a pretty big selection to choose from (and remember with parties over 10 we're required to do it family style) and I know everyone has different tastes. The question is would you guys trust myself and DVCajun to design the menu? We both have different tastes but I think between the two of us we could come up with a good menu with a decent variety. Then we could post it here (or PM everyone with it to get the final ok). By the way I just got off the phone with the GM at Maggianos and I've tentatively reserved for 20 (I can add more later if need be) for the upstairs (mezzanine area he called it) for Saturday, July 27 at 11:30, he said we'd definitely get the balcony because we'd be about the first group there. This area is only accessible by stairs so if there is someone who cannot negotiate the stairs let me know and I'll change it. Also, he said when I call back to confirm the number of people if we could let them know which items we would want that would be a big help to them (and us as we can concentrate more on yapping and less on ordering). Thanks again and I'll be PM'ing you soon!

I trust you to plan the menu

I eat about anything but my husband is a very plain eater, BUT with all of those courses, I'm sure even the pickiest eater will go away full!!

I'm fine with you guys choosing. It sounds like a ton of food, so I'm sure there'll be something for everyone. No breakfast or dinner for me on that day!

...we'll eat just about anything.
