Past list view

We are now going to Luce Enoteca Wine Bar in Powell Ohio. (Note: The Wine Loft Closed their doors and are no longer in business)

Luce is not normally opened on Mondays, but they are opening the ENTIRE restaurant just for us!
Monday September 28th, so we have reserved that date.

We will be have the full run of the restaurant. Lots of great parking (the entire parking lot belongs to us) and a wonderful menu. We have a private space (the entire restaurant) for our event. Walk in the front door and you will find us.

The menu is buffet style, with an assortment of antipasta, Italian salad, Prosciutto di Parma, marinated and grilled vegetables, domestic unique Ohio cheeses, olive plates. There will be a limited extra menu available for purchase for anyone with a robust appetite. You may bring bottles of wine, and we will spread that small cost and the corkage fees ($10 per bottle) across the members of the group (with the exception of those who bring wine) group like always.

The cost of the buffet is $20, but Luce will be donating 50% of this fee ($10 per person) to our charity!!!! so we will not be asking for an additional donation to the Injured Marine Fund.

Wines, beer and mixed drinks will additionally all be at available at the bar at reasonable prices: This includes individual glasses of wine, as well as over 200 different bottles of wines at State Minimum plus $7.

Come on down one and all, relax, bring wine, share snacks, hang with friends, chew the fat, bring others!

The donation to help support our wounded Marines is built into the dinner cost. There will be no other collection of donations. We appreciate all the work/time/life our Marines, Airmen and Soldiers give us so we may have this event and the ability to share with others. We honor those who have gone before us with the $$ we are donating. Semper FI, one and all.

Menu at Tria Greek Kuzina in Powell Ohio

Dinner at Tria is usually easy to keep below $25 per person, with some great typical Greek menu selections, including a very good all-beef Gyro sandwich and salad plate. Try their flaming cheese! Opa!
Pictures of the food at Tria.

We will have the patio --weather permitting (the patio seats 32) and may have the option of expanding more within the restaurant.

Tria is a unique place to gather for wine and traditional Greek food. The food is excellent and the wine is a perfect complement. Join us on August from 6 p.m. to 9 as we sample all that Tria has to offer. Please feel free to bring a bottle or two to share with the group. If you plan to bring wine, please let me know! As always, we will purchase 3 or 4 types of wines (1 bottle per 12 people) from Tria for the group to share. Corkage fees will be split among attendees. Those bringing wine will not be charged for corkage fees or for the wine purchases. If you bring wine, please remember that 1 bottle is sufficient for a 2-ounce pour for about 12 people, so 2 bottles are usually required for larger groups (24 or more). R.S.V.P. to Steve.

Liberty Tavern event has fallen through, but we have a great back-up location!!!!

Dublin Wine Loft is a new location, and they are excited to have us attend. This location looks like it has been imported directly for Chicago or New York.
Let's just say it have a very cool, laid back style all it's own. Lots of great parking and a wonderful menu. We have a private space for our event. Come is and ask for the Wine Club area.

The menu is set-up for indivduals, so starters are for one person, and you can order meals as well. The club is getting cheese tray to have at the opening, we will spread that small cost and the corkage fees across the group like always.

Come on down one and all, relax, bring wine, share snacks, hang with friends, chew the fat, bring others!

We always ask for a $5 donation to help support our wounded Marines and all the work/time/life they give us so we may have this event and the ability to share with others. We honor those who have gone before us with the $$ help. Semper FI, one and all.

NOTE: We need a solid count of folks bringing wine, and how many bottles please, so please email me that.

Meetup for February.
Jason's Restaurant in Worthington

Order off the menu: Order as much or as little as you please. Our group member and Somellier Dave McMahon will make pairing suggestions with the wines we bring or purchase.
I will need 5 volunteers to bring 2 of your favorite bottles of wine. Jason's will allow us to bring our own wine with a modest $5 corkage fee.

The $5 per person is an OPTIONAL donation and is a tax-deductible contribution that will be donated in your name to our 501c3 Charity (this month, The Injured Marine Fund).

Additional wines are available by the glass or bottle at a cash bar.

"Jason Liu, a successful restaurateur in Dublin, his Worthington location in July of 2008. It looks like one of the more elaborate and probably most expensive ground up restaurants I have seen. The copper gutters and flashing accents the white trim and brick facing. Unique to the typical Worthington colonial architectural style is the big pineapple seen on the front of the building. My understanding is the pineapple is a welcome sign. If the food is as good as the Dublin shop this place will be very busy".
--GuideMeHomeColumbus.com

----------------------------

"The new Jason's has high ceilings, sleek appointments, a round bar, and a patio on the ground floor. The main restaurant can seat 175. Smaller dining areas can also be closed off for private parties.

Upstairs is a grand ballroom with a bar, modern chandeliers, separate meeting rooms, two small "Romeo and Juliet" balconies and a large, round, covered balcony on the south side.

The large balcony has a separate entrance, and may be opened to the public when the restaurant becomes full.

There have already been two wedding receptions in the ballroom, and Cappellano expects it to become a very popular venue for receptions and for other large gatherings.

The menu will be similar to the upscale, casual fare that has been so popular at the Dublin Jason's, said executive chef Geoffrey Cassidy.

Besides Asian fare, there will be some Italian choices, as well as steaks, chicken, seafood, appetizers and salads.

"Our motto is 'something for everybody,'" he said. "
