May be cancelled due to lack of participation/interest. Bummer.
Coming to Philadelphia for a trade show. I’ll be available the evenings of Friday Sept 30th and Saturday Oct 1st. Stuck at the Marriott and Convention Center. Anyone interested in dinner and wine either night? Something low key. Don’t need an extravagant meal just enjoy some good wines.
Personally I would prefer Friday night since my flight out is real early Sunday AM.
9-14 Edit: I was looking to nail this down early so I could ship my wines out and allow them to settle down. If I can’t get more people together for this by Friday 9-16 I’ll just shut it down.
I will probably be around. Most of the good restaurants are BYO - not a problem here. Consolation for our terrible monopoly system. Lots of good places within an easy walk or cab from where you are.
2 week bump.
What suggestions are out there for a BYO restaurant somewhat close to the Convention Center? Not looking for $100 a plate places but good food, good atmosphere for a few winos.
Philly isn’t like NYC where it takes half a day to get from one side of the city to the other. So, from the Convention Center, you are a quick cab ride to great BYOs like Will on East Passyunk (or Laurel if you can get a reservation) or Pickled Heron in Fishtown.
My fave is still Blackfish, but that is a bit of a drive.

Hi, I don’t mind jumping to PHL on the train. Hi, maybe i’d even bring a Becklyn
(PS- see its cancelled, but if there is still something small keep me posted)
