Pizza Crew

Last night we had our first successful "Pizza Crew Outing" with two of our favorite couples: Ricardo and Jodi and Naperville Greg and Kleveland Kim.  The restaurant, Ciao Napoli in Logan Square, was suggested by Jodi and it turned out to be a winner. We ate and ate and ate and drank and drank. It was mucho fun. I'm not sure why everyone but me is wearing a black shirt in the middle of June when it was 85+ outside, but whatever. Made me stand out a bit!  We ate outside since it was so nice, though the sun did end up shining in our eyes for a bit just before it set.  They had Pranqster on tap, which is one of my favorite beers.  Next up for the crew is Coal Fire Pizza on west Grand.  We're trying to go to places we haven't been before and KK was good enough to save a magazine which had a "Top 25 Chicago pizza restaurants" article in it. That's where we got Coal Fire Pizza from...I think it was top 5. We'll see!! It's really tough to get dates for this group though. I have softball many weekends, KK is a flight attendant, NG likes to hunt up on his farmland in WI and Ricardo and Jodi have a place in WI where they go many weekends as well. We came up with this idea back in March at my birthday dinner and it took us a while to get it scheduled. Hopefully we'll be able to get July on the books soon!



Who didn't get the black shirt memo??





Pranqster served in a Chimay glass.....an awesome combination!

Probably because you were rooting for Holland.

That sounds like fun. It may have taken a while but at least you managed to get the group together.

I have a friend who has a "dinner club" with a group of friends and they make sure to go somewhere new once a month.
