1st Annual Great Canadian Winter Herf (U.S. Brothers are welcome too)

[riazp]

Hey Guys,

Me and Frank (Bundwallah) were talking a while back about organising a Winter Edition Herf, here In Montreal. Why Montreal you ask? why not in the center of the universe you call Toronto? Well i'll tell you why, Montreal is awesome, we have a little place called Stogies Cigar Lounge where we can smoke inside. We would be able to reserve the upstairs smoking room in the bar for us.

I chose Jan 21st 2012 simply because The Habs play the Leafs on that day and I thought it would be fun to watch it as a gang, if you guys have a alternate date, please propose it and we can see if it works with the group. But it would be better to try to keep this original date in order to avoid confusion.

Basically it will be a fairly simple evening, we meet up, go eat as a gang somewhere, then walk over to stogies for a few smokes and drinks, and just have a good time together, seeing how many of you toronto boys dont have a safe haven for winter smoking, i'm sure this will be a great oppertunity to reunite with your favorite smokes. Hopefully we can get a good group of guys assembled and just have a good time (and a Habs victory )

So please confirm, by voting on the poll and posting on the thread, if you can make it or not, and if you will be bringning guests/friends/spouses to either the dinner or the dinner and stogies so I can keep count for reservations purposes. Mark this date on your calandar guys, its an event you surely dont want to miss, unless you hate cigars (and if you,why are you even here?)

Btw, Kiwiman911, Tempbond, i'm counting on you guys to help me out on this LOL

[Puros Y Vino]

Sure..rub in the indoor smoking thing will ya? Good stuff Riaz!! Hockey, cigars and fellow FOH's under one roof!!

Count me in.

[IcedCanuck]

I'm down with that. Is there a Rubin's anywhere near Stogies?

[riazp]

Rubens and Dunn's are a 5 minute walk from stogies...

[IcedCanuck]

Awesome, Chez Ruben's gets my vote as well!

[ckearns]

Pencil me in, Riaz and I voted for a smoked meat place for dinner. Whatever the result, we should try and eat at a place that's uniquely Mtl. Thanks for putting this together.

[riazp]

Its all about Boustan boys. Forget Ruben's, but I have a buddy who works at Dunn's and have connections with the owner. If we're enough, I can try to swing something. Not sure what, but something...

Oh, and I'll let u know last minute bro, but if there is anything I can help with, let me know.

Typical Shlomo...this thing is planned months in advance and you as always...last minute. Shlomo i'll be in touch with you for Dunn's if we're enough see what you can switn...Boustan is too far from Stogies, I want a place where we can walk to.

6 voted Yes, but from the posts I see that Frank, Iced, Conor and myself are confirmed, who are the other 2 that i'm missing?

[Squarehead]

Riaz,unfortunatly that date is taken for me,sorry.

[Strada]

Im in. Im down for Rubens. Boustan is greaaat food but not really a sit down place. If you need help planning Riaz let me know.

For Foh brothers out of town, I work in a hotel in Montreal so if you need a room PM me closer to the date.

Oh and Go Habs Go

Boustan's is right across the street from Stogies - when I do make the trip to Montreal, this is usually where I go first, then it across the street to Stogies.
