LTH North Lunch Group - Niku Niku Toyo - 5/2 - 12:30pm

OK - Passover's over. Taxes are done. Time to get back in the groove of the LTH North Lunch Group.

This month's destination is at the recommendation of esteemed LTH North Lunch Group member WillG. While sushi is not usually in the LTH North wheelhouse - Will says "All their stuff is decent, but I am recommending it for the ramen, which is not on the regular menu." The weather's still crappy enough to justify a steaming hot bowl of ramen.

Please join us on the 2nd. As always - bring a friend.

Niku Niku Toyo
840 S. Waukegan Road, Ste. 113
Lake Forest, IL 60045

hey that's around the corner, practically, from my client. I'll have to check the calendar, but I'm probably in.

Bummer. I just made plans yesterday that will be taking me south on 4/18. I had been checking every couple of days to see if/when we'd be doing another lunch. I'm so disappointed to miss this.

Sigh.

Well, I'll keep checking and hope I'm around for the next one. I really enjoy having the opportunity to explore the area with fellow LTHers.

Have a great time.

I am in. When I ate at Niku Niku last week the 4 ramen specials they had were pork cheek, tongue, kimchee (which had a lot of pork belly/bacon in it), and seafood.

I'm going to try to join you for this, all depending on the usual four-letter word: w-o-r-k.

Same for me; barring an unforeseen work crunch, I'll join you too.

Hi,

I plan to attend. Please put down Helen, who does not know about this and will likely say 'yes.' If she cannot make it, I will let you know in advance.

Regards,

Have to drop out, sorry -- I've got a meeting until 12:30 and another one at 1.

I would like to join you, if you don't mind! I'm relatively new to LTHForum, and this would be my first event. I signed up to go to the Evanston chicken and waffles thing next week as well, but I hadn't seen this thread. My name is Helen, too.

A hearty LTH North Lunch Group welcome to nukegirl (Helen). Looking forward to meeting you.

Unlike our counterparts down in Evanston - we don't require membership cards or secret handshakes to join.

bummer, I have a professional luncheon at University Club tomorrow that I've alreay paid for. Pretty sure I would have made the choice to go to Niku Niku had I noticed this post in time.

Count me in plus one.

Hi Guys,

With the current crappy weather - I'm perfectly content rescheduling if making today's lunch is going to be inconvenient for you.

I will yield with the majority.

OK - I've decided to cancel today's lunch. The Kennedy, Edens and route 41 are closed in sections.
It's not worth the effort to head out today.
I'll shoot everyone a PM.

& please post new date so those that couldn't make today, might make the new date, thanks !

+1 for new date!

+2, really looking forward to trying this place.

It's rescheduled. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Thanks for your understanding.

I am in again, assuming that I make it back from New Orleans.

OK, I'm in for this one, assuming I don't get death-by-powerpointed again.

Great! Looking forward to it.

thanks for setting up new date, I'm a strong maybe at this point, I'll know for sure next week.

I just realized that Niku Niku is closed on Tuesdays, so this will not work.

-Will

OK - I'll get the hang of this job sooner or later.

I've rescheduled this affair for 5/2. Sorry for the confusion.

Still good for me.

Me too.

Stronger maybe at this point, will be able to confirm next week.

5/2 should work for me. Maybe it will actually be spring by then!

Still works for me.

Thanks, Will

Hi,

I plan to attend and sign up Helen, too.
