Description
LTH ChanuKwanzaChristadan Festivus: Manny's, 12/15/07, 6:00PM

When the Great Gods of Chow gaze down upon Mannys (1141 S. Jefferson), they see the sacred spot where, lo so many years before, the legendary around-the-clock Chow-a-Thon began, and they see, too, the spot that will become even more incredibly damn sacred when it hosts our third annual holiday party, the 2007 LTH ChanuKwanzaChristadan Festivus.

On December 15, at 6:00 PM, we will, as in years past, gather together to raise our voices in praise and our mouths to slurp seemingly endless platters of exquisite grub. Mannys will set forth the full and limitless line of time-honored comestibles: corned beef, pastrami, baked salmon, skirt steak, short ribs, knish, and sides  everything from the lunch and dinner menus  plus all the beer, wine and other beverages you can quaff.  And free wi-fi. Theyre even throwing in an LTH cake!  Does this not rule?!

Price is $50.

Want a spot? Please sign up now.

Raffle will take place after dinner; bring a raffle gift (an approximately $10 value), and get a ticket to win a prize. If you dont want to be in the raffle, that is totally cool  its all voluntary  you can still watch (from a respectful distance). To give you an idea of what you might bring, heres a very partial list of some of the gifts from last year:

Home-cured bacon from MikeG
Machine that turns a hot dog into an octopus from Josephine
Local preserves and sorghum from Vital Information
Chocolate sour-cream bundt from Eat Chicago and Petit Pois
Some amazing BBQ device from stevez
Leaf lard from Bruce
Chili oil and BBQ rub from GWiv

Entertainment is still pending, though at the very least Gary will sing Wild Thing and will personally be handling all complaints. 

Vital Information will be collecting for the Oak Park Food Pantry; those who would like to do so are encouraged to bring items such as rice, cereal, and canned meat,

If you plan to come, please post to this thread so people know youre coming; then pay at Brown Paper Tickets or with a check. 

Hope to see you there. 

Note: Well be wrapping up at 9:30PM, but we can of course retire  as is our tradition -- to the nearby Skylark (2149 S Halsted St), where we can await the dawn and the Maxwell Street Market, which opens a mere 9.5 hours later.
