Oh well, I wound up walking to the HFS down the street to get soft serve Temptation today. If anyone wants to suggest a restaurant meetup I'm up for anything!

It's already Sunday as I post this but I'm in for a meet up! Ice cream or restaurant meet up both sound good. Maybe a restaurant that also serves ice cream? I saw a write up in Time Out Chicago yesterday that talked about a bar that serves soft serve Jameson ice cream. It wasn't vegan but I was wondring if I could veganise something like that (I LOVE to make ice cream)...

We're planning an ice cream social for our next potluck theme. Hope you (and your ice cream) can make it!

I would love to do a restaurant meetup! I will not be available until June 10th.

Any ideas of what restaurant to go to?

Hey Jeni! Hope you're having a great time in MI!!

For a restaurant meetup....there's always Chicago Diner, or Native Foods. There are plenty of places with vegan pizza we could try out. I'd love to go back to Urban Vegan. Really, I'm open to trying any place!

Thanks!! I am having a good time, but I am ready to come back to Chicago!

I am up for anyone of those restaurants!! Each one is so good!!

I have limited availability in June, but the middle two weekends are looking good for a (not-super-expensive) restaurant meet-up.

Would the weekend of the 16th & 17th work?

I just realized Father's Day is June 17, so I'll probably be spending that weekend at my parents' place.

How about the next weekend, the 23 & 24th?

MelissaAnnM · **Posted:** Fri Jun 01, 2012 11:34 am

Sorry guys, no weekends for me. But have fun anywho :)

Jeni7282 · **Posted:** Fri Jun 01, 2012 3:09 pm

The weekend of the 23rd & 24th works for me! The 24th I am running a half marathon in the morning, so anything in the afternoon works for me!

EmJaeDee · **Posted:** Fri Jun 01, 2012 10:17 pm

I could also do a Friday evening (15 or 22) if that works better for more people.

Jeni7282 · **Posted:** Sat Jun 02, 2012 8:14 am

The 15th and 22nd also works for me!

pepperpot · **Posted:** Sun Jun 03, 2012 8:35 pm

The evening of the 22nd would work for me too! I'm usually free on weeknights. Does anyone have preference or any suggestions on where to go?

EmJaeDee · **Posted:** Mon Jun 11, 2012 10:25 am

MelissaAnnM, can you do the 22nd? 'Cause if you can, we should pick somewhere in Wicker Park, right?

Jeni7282 · **Posted:** Sat Jun 16, 2012 11:05 pm

Should we just go ahead and pick a place that is in Wicker Park or relatively close to there?

EmJaeDee · **Posted:** Sun Jun 17, 2012 9:34 pm

Works for me!

Jeni7282 · **Posted:** Mon Jun 18, 2012 9:24 am

Ok! :)
Does anyone have a particular place in Wicker Park that they would like to go to?

pepperpot · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 8:37 am

Works for me too! Are we planning on this Friday evening, the 22nd?

I'm pretty close to Wicker Park, but I don't make it over there too often, so I'm up for anywhere.

EmJaeDee · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 12:27 pm

Native Foods is always good, and I've never been to Handlebar. So there are two options, right off the bat. This Friday works for me!

horseypony · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 12:53 pm

I would love to meet up Friday as well! Just pick a place!

Jeni7282 · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 1:02 pm

Friday sounds great! :)

How about The Handlebar? I have never been there either and it sounds like they have really good vegan options!

jessilikewhoa · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 1:44 pm

Go to Handlebar! (I can't make it, as I have school stupid early Saturday morning, but I just ate there a week ago after a doctor's appointment and it was ZAMAZING!)

horseypony · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 4:15 pm

I get off work at five and would be down for handlebar oh, say....7?

pepperpot · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 4:23 pm

Handlebar sounds great! I've only been there once a few years ago, but I remember the food being awesome.

What time works for everyone? I need to run home and feed and walk the pup after work, so I think I can be there around 7.

Jeni7282 · **Posted:** Tue Jun 19, 2012 5:40 pm

7 works for me!
