Screwed up, as usual

Okay, so I got excited, and sent out the notice without checking. Call me an idiot (everyone does).
Seems there's another event scheduled for the 14th, and we still don't know what time it's scheduled for, thus not knowing if there's a conflict or not.
Hide and watch, as they say.
Updates will be provided.
Sorry.

New place, but same date and time

Rico says it's definite: my birthday dinner will still be on Saturday, 14 April, at 1800 (though you're certainly invited to come earlier and have a beverage or two before dinner), but it will now be at Millridge in Bryn Mawr; all other venues are cancelled.
The menu is still being determined, but will probably feature the ladyfriend's splendid rendition of filet mignon, along with the usual salad, a couple of side dishes, and dessert. It will definitely be BYOB, and we'll probably have a bottle or two for the forgetful, but bring what you like to drink.
The primary difference is that this event is being catered, and paid for, so you eat for free.

PS
There will be a special occurrence at the dinner, loosely based on the chapter A Long-expected Party from The Lord of the Rings. I anticipate that you‘ll enjoy it.

Hide and watch

Mark says the place for dinner is subject to change; you'll be updated as things change. The date is still Saturday, 14 April, at 6pm, but it won't be A La Maison...

Ain't no free lunch

And Rico's birthday dinner (on the 14th of April, remember) won't be either.
While A La Maison isn't the most expensive restaurant around, it's not Denny's-cheap, either, so bring about fifty dollars to pay for your dinner.
Rico says he wishes he could pay for everyone but alas, unless he wins the lottery before then, he can't...

Change of plans, yet again

Because of the expense (considerable) and the timing (poor, given the local events), Rico's sixtieth is no longer in Nawlins. It will be a date close to his actual birthday (12 April), but in Philadelphia. This will be good for some, and not for others. You'll email your intentions, but Rico hopes you can at least come to dinner on Saturday, 14 April. The location will be A La Maison, an excellent French restaurant at 53 West Lancaster Avenue in Ardmore, at 6pm (because Rico says he gets hungry early).

But wait, there's more

The man with the gold is now saying there are, maybe, more days there than we thought. Arrival? Early April. Departure? Maybe a week later. Birthday dinner? Maybe on the 12th, my actual birthday. Hide and watch...

The gold rules

The Golden Rule, of course, is that the man with the gold makes the rules.
In this case, that would be my father.
Thus, we'll be arriving in New Orleans on Friday the 13th (ignoring the superstition) and departing on Sunday the 15th.
My birthday dinner, temporally skewed, will be on Saturday, the 14th, at a splendid New Orleans restaurant to be determined.
Still hope you can make it.
