As for venues, this place can give us a room and a set menu: http://www.toiseattle.com/menu.aspx

If this looks OK, we can discuss more... Let me know what you all prefer! ▲ Collapse

The ATA Literary Division's late-night cafe is at 9 p.m. Thursday, so I may skip the late-night dinner.

Toi offering Nov 3, 2005

The restaurant Ti, a few blocks from the hotel, is offering our dinner and drinks in our own room (2nd floor), with space for up to 50 people, at $25/person. What do you all think? I can post the menu details if this is not too expensive.
