I will be organizing a lunch at The Lady & Sons on Saturday, April 5, at 12:30 p.m. I've made an initial inquiry and was told that they take reservations for parties of 10 or more. A few ST's have already expressed interest in having lunch at Paula's restaurant so I'm sure they'll be enough of us for a reservation.

The Lady & Sons is a larger restaurant that I had imagined. It has three floors and seats 250 people. They have a banquet type room for parties of 50+ but I doubt we'll need that type of accommodation. If there are more than 10 of us we'll be seated at different tables but in the same area of the dining room.

Obviously, we have plenty of time to make a reservation but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up so if you're interested you can add it to your itinerary. If you send me a PM I'll keep a list and at the appropriate time make our reservation.

Savannah is sure to be one fun weekend!!! Happy Shannon Chicken Dance

Carole,

I was hoping someone would do this Big Grin.

David and I would like to be part of lunch at Paula's place, so add 2 to your list.

Marcia, glad that you and David will be part our lunch group. If you would also send me a PM I think that will make it easier for me to keep track.

If anyone wants to let the others know you'll be coming to lunch post here but also send me a PM. As we get closer, I'll start posting my list.

Carole, I was hoping a group would go on Friday at lunch. If not we might join in on Sat. (but not definite yet.)

Since we plan to be in Savannah on Friday, I guess we could go to lunch twice Roll Eyes?

I thought Saturday would be the best day for Paul Deen's because I'm sure some people won't be arriving until Friday. I'm getting in on Thursday so we could plan an other lunch for Friday and how about a dinner on Thursday night.

Thanks for organizing this Carole. Smile

We're arriving in Savannah late Thursday so don't count us in for Thursday dinner.

Friday or Saturday lunch would be fine.

It doesn't matter which day to me. I'd rather go with a group reservation than stand in a line.

If I recall, Carole is now traveling in Italy, so we won't hear back from her for a few weeks.
This is going to be one fun lunch.

Since I have taken over Carole's role as Lunch Coordinator I thought I would bring this back up, even though it is only August.

Lunch at the Lady & Sons is currently being planned for Saturday April 5. I have e-mailed to ask them when we need to make the reservation. Reservations in the restaurant can be made for groups of 10-24.

This is the list that Carole has given me of the people who told her they were interested in attending. If I need to make corrections, either tell me here or send me a PM. Also, if you are not on this list and want to join us, please let me know.
