Greetings, all!
GhostDan and I would like to invite you to attend the annual pre-PAX Dinner where you can meet other PA forumers. This year, the PPD for PAX East is going to be held on the second floor of the Black Rose, 160 State Street, Boston, MA 02109 and it IS a family friendly, all-ages event. For those of you who are considering attending any of the later pre-PAX events such as the Pokecrawl or gaming, I'll point out that the dinner is scheduled from 5:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. EDT specifically to allow people to attend it as well. You'll need the food for energy, after all.
This year's dinner is going to be a heavy hors d'oeuvres buffet with items such as vegetarian spring rolls, spanikopita, mini quiches (vegetarian), sliders, chicken tenders, cheesesteak spring rolls, large cheese tray with fruit and crackers, broccoli and cheddar puffs, cold cuts with rolls and condiments, cheesecake, brownies, and soda. There will also be a cash bar available.
Tickets are now on sale through Sunday, March 23 on Eventbrite
here. Each ticket is $25.00 plus Eventbrite's fee of $1.62.
If you have any questions, please feel free to message me.
Both the location and menu were chosen in the hopes of providing a hospitable and relaxed place where we can all meet and have a good time. I really hope to see a strong turnout and look forward to seeing you all there!

Overhead of Faneuil Hall and the Marketplace. The Black Rose is located in the bottom right corner, at the spot of the orange star. For reference, the orange asterisk is Durgin Park, where last year's dinner was held.
And to get a better idea of distance:
You can see the Black Rose in the foreground on left side of the picture. The orange arrow in the upper-middle section of the picture is right over the east end of the South Market building of the Faneuil Hall Marketplace.
Edit. There are two of us, plus two more friends who are going should be buying tickets soon to the dinner.

wouldn't miss it sir ...
Oh that's totally fine! After a year gluten free I've finally gotten savvy enough that I can safely navigate a buffet and it looks like there will be plenty that I can have (cheese, fruit, cold cuts, etc). I was just excited to see that if for some reason I was still hungry I could order off their menu separately after the PAX dinner is over. If they would make the menu available during the dinner that would be a bonus. Thank you both for checking!

The quiches are veggie (I know, it'll have eggs, but looks like pescatarians eat eggs) and cheese and crackers. Plus the deserts
One question: I might be delayed getting there. Would coming at 5:45- 6:00 be O.K? I'll try to be earlier, but it might not be possible.
One of the perks to having a buffet is you can show up whenever. Although the later you are some of the prime food may be gone

Looks like the place is walking distance to the Omni where we are staying. Was able to confirm we will be arriving early enough to make dinner.
Dolarrah - That was the idea. DP and acumen have been absolutely awesome, but I think a change of venue is always great, and I really think this provides more interaction.
