I'd just like to get some kind of measure of interest on this and opinions:
Boston has this restaurant (now with 4 locations?) called
Finale and basically what they do is elaborate and delicious desserts that are big enough to be a meal (depending on how big your stomach is). Here are the general factors:
- At least one location looks like it's within walking distance from the convention center
- Not sure of the pricing, I could look into it more if people were interested in the idea
- There is a possibility of renting the whole restaurant out for between 50-100 people
- They could give us some "real" dinner food, but most of the cost would probably be the dessert part
Is this an idea that people would be interested in? Do people have an opinion on whether or not they're worth it? Is this a decent idea in general?
It's kind of different than the PAX Prime Pre-PAX dinner idea, I mean...it's sort of a diabetic's nightmare, it's just something I was thinking about.

Only when you realise this can you appreciate what is truly real.

We shall see.
It would be a bit pricey which is why it's more of a suggestion than a proposal.
Not impossible, though. By all means, investigate the hell out of it.

So, in the spirit of the hugely successful Post-PAX Party Dinner back at Prime (thanks, everyone), I'm considering doing another event with dessert instead of real food. Eating seemed to take a major back seat to the partying at te PPPD, and really, I'm perfectly fine with that. I would much rather have a huge room with projectors and other fun stuff, where people are mingling and partying, than a sit down dinner with less fun but more food.
Dessert would give people something delicious to put in their mouths (that's what she said), but it wouldn't be the main focus, which would make room for other fun stuff. Plus, desserts are cheap, which would mean more money to fund that fun stuff.
So, in summary, how does that sound? A Post-PAX Party with desserts?

Finale is full of delicious goodness... chocolate delicious goodness. The nice thing is they have some sampler plates that folks can split.
My mate and I would definitely be up for this!

However, I'm still kicking around the idea of a Post-PAX Dessert Party, which would happen after the expo closes on Sunday. I'll start putting in a more organized planning effort after the New Year.
