dboggny Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 (edited) on January 23rd, 2004, a few of us, as we have done previously, are getting together for an all you can eat steak dinner. We will be gathering at Greenfields in Hackensack, NJ for this one (for those who are far and can't/ don't want to do that driving we will plan one in the Queens or Nassua area if you would like. AND DON'T FORGET, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A GET TOGETHER NEAR YOU, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FEEL FREE TO HELP PLAN IT. I DONT KNOW THE WHOLE AREA. Even a buffet breakfast and cache hunt near where you live would be cool... it would help cachers from other areas see geocaching in your neck of the woods and maybe give them confidence to return since they have seen the area and terrain with a local guide). Here is a link for the adress info for greenfield restaurant. I say we meet at 7:00 pm. please indicate if you are going to attend, so we know who to hold a seat for/ wait for. if you arrive late, i dont think it matters. this isn't a formal event, people can come and go as they please and sit with whomever they please etc. The place closes at 10pm... this is a buffet/ all you can eat steak place, so get there early. cost is approx $30. see you soon. danny Edited January 7, 2004 by dboggny Quote Link to comment
+Mopar Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I should hopefully be there, the last one was great. If anyone has a pregnant wife, make sure to bring her. She can be seated across from me to to help induce labor. Worked for Danny's wife, Becky. Quote Link to comment

dboggny Posted January 8, 2004 Author Share Posted January 8, 2004 Is that a Thursday? Hope not. its a friday so it wont interfere with your bowling Quote Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 I'll be there as long as DBoggNY guards the dessert table like last time! "Hey - if you TOUCH the piece of cake - you TAKE the piece of cake" Funniest thing I've seen in a while. This random guy is right in front of us and he's TOUCHING all the desserts (but taking none). Luckily, DBoggNY was there to "edumacate" the fellow in basic courtesy and food sanitation! The food's good - great skirt steak, and there's a huge sushi bar also - but watch around the dessert table. I'll be there - steak knife a'flying! Quote Link to comment
+The Frantic Cachers Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Is Greenfields still there?? I am usually 99% wrong so you could ignore me but last time I was over there I could have sworn it changed names and don't know if it is still the same.. This was a couple of months ago tho so I am most likely wrong. Quote Link to comment

+fosterbass Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 That's pretty tempting. I live under a half hour from there, but I'm one of 'those people' who doesn't eat steak. I guess I can have the chicken. Quote Link to comment

Need to find an all you can eat Breakfast place. that would be great. let me know when/where and i can help out a bit. there is also a greenfield restaurant in queens and another, similar all you can eat steak place in queens - so if you wanted to do a dinner at one of these places... i am sure there are other nice buffet places on the island. there is one in central nassua not too far from the colleseum.. its not a steak place but chinese buffet and its reallly good. danny Edited January 10, 2004 by dboggny Quote Link to comment

As stated in ClayJars chat room the peer pressure from IV has taken it's toll and I will be there. I will also let you know about something on the Island soon. Quote Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Maybe IV could start pressuring JMBella to pick up the tab for the entire night? IV Warrior's secretly conducting mind control experiments for the NSA. Quote Link to comment
+Natureboy44 Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Wish I could join you all but I'll be away on business. Oh well, hopefully I'll nab caches in Europe while I'm gone. Quote Link to comment
+Rattlehead Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Sounds fun. I'll probably be there. Quote Link to comment

+programmer64 Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 attended last one at the palisades, but too far to travel for a friday night for me. Perhaps some of you can boggie down this way in the spring when we have one! Keep looking for a posting. Quote Link to comment
+IV_Warrior Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 In a hypnotic mind-controlling voice:JMBella you will buy for everyone who shows up. You want to pick up the tab for the night. There HC, I tried......although I don't know that my mind control powers are strong enough to make anybody part with that much $$$. Quote Link to comment
+Planet Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 Gee, I wish I could go. I maybe heading up to NH for yet another memorial. It seems the older you get the more people pass away. My uncle passed away in Hungary and the memorial will be in NH. So count me out, sorry. Quote Link to comment
+Team Shibby Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) Team Shibby will make every possible attempt to make this one! How could we pass up a chance to meet so many great people and eat a nice steak dinner!! Kar of TS!! Edited January 16, 2004 by Team Shibby Quote Link to comment
+Harrald Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Well it looks as if My wife, The Bardmin and I will be there. In fact there is rumor of a pre-dinner cocktail nearby. Since my bride will be driving us home I guess I will have to attend the pre dinner cocktail hour (or 2) also. Maybe we can start getting a count on how many people are planning on being there. I could stop by the resturant on the way home from work and make sure they are ready for this crowd. 3 of us. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) I'm 90 percent certain I'll be there so count me as 1. Skigirl is a maybe. That makes 4, maybe 5. Edited January 16, 2004 by briansnat Quote Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 I'm flying solo that evening - so just put me down for one, but I'm hoping to make it a little early for the cocktail hour! Quote Link to comment
+Mopar Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Pretty sure Geo Ho and I will attend, not yet sure if we'll have the boy or not. So, add another 2-3. I dunno, I wasn't even invited to the pre cocktail cocktail hour Quote Link to comment
+scoobydooers Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 theres a pre cocktail cocktail hour? that starts at what.... 1:00pm? a little too early for me, but Ill be there with the wife in time for the main course at 7 what do you do... push a bunch of tables together? wally Quote Link to comment
+bldebabe Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 I'll definately be there Bldebabe Quote Link to comment
+IV_Warrior Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Don't feel bad Mopar, I'm driving in from about 4 hours away and I wasn't invited for cocktails, either. Currently it looks like I'll be driving in by myself. Quote Link to comment
+JMBella Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Hmmm... I.. I have this... Strange erg to buy dinner for everyone. It doesn't make sense. I haven't even met some of you but still I feel compelled to... <wife comes in room> THWACK!!!! Ouch what the... holy crap did I just write that?! Quote Link to comment
dboggny Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 two of us... harry doesn't eat steak as he has no teeth and since mom doesn't eat meat, he is a veggie by definition. we wont make the pre dinner hour, infact, depending on traffic we might be a bit late as becky wont be out of work until around 630pm or later. db Quote Link to comment
+Harrald Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 QUICK IVWarrior!!!!!!!!!!! Get him to buy us drinks before dinner too!!!!! (the way Hart and I drink, we'll put him in the poor house for sure) Quote Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 (edited) I'll be there for dinner but will (unfortunately) probably not make any cocktail hour earlier. I've been fasting for the last 2 months in preparation for this feast (got to get my money's worth out of the buffet, right?) Just steer clear of the salad. p.s. No, that's not me (it's just a picture I lifted off some website). Edited January 21, 2004 by HartClimbs Quote Link to comment
marty621 Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 I'm gonna try my best to get there. Quote Link to comment
+fosterbass Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Just steer clear of the salad. Hey! I said I didn't like steak, but I never said I'll eat something just because it looks like lettuce! Quote Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Putting it back on top. They have rice too..... Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 So what time is the cocktail hour crowd gonna be there? Quote Link to comment
+fosterbass Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Mapsource MetroGuide pegs this place at N40 54.613 W74 01.990 Can anyone confirm or deny? Quote Link to comment
