Fwd: Dinner Nov. 30th From Vold

hi Lesley:

Martin also has a keycard. unfortunately Harvard University administrative employees don't work on weekends. Martin's students and postdocs are always hanging around so maybe Martin could ask one of them to set up tables. the tables are on wheels thus can be rolled into our seminar room which has an dry erase board on one wall and chalk boards on another wall and a powerpoint projector.

here in our kitchen we have some plates, glasses, silverware

that are used daily by the students/postdocs

but they're likely to be dirty

so i recommend bringing plates, glasses, silverware, wine bottle opener, everything.

hi Lesley: sorry i'll be out of town that weekend. will one of Jeffrey's assistants be available to let caterers and guests in/out of the building? (we're in commercial space which is always locked after business hours with access via proximity card only.)

when i called Yoki last month they said: sushi, rolls, sashimi can be arranged on large buffet platters if requested. can choose a la carte and/or "chef's choice" of sushi, rolls, sashimi. for George (vegan) can request a separate plate without animal products (eggs, milk, cheese) and gluten free soy sauce. they suggested to order everything several days in advance then call/confirm day before.

birthday cake?
Finale bakery
ilttp: W.WW tinaledesserts.com bakery inenu.php
has interesting flavors.
i like Ultimate Chocolate
and Tiramisu
and Key Lime & Coconut.

the Harvard Square location
(30 Dunster Street Cambridge)
which is within walking distance to
Martin's institute
is open on Sundays 12:00pm-11:00pm
such that one of Je&ey's assistants
could walk-in to pick-up
whatever round cake(s) are in stock.

larger (rectangular) sheet cakes
in more traditional flavors
(for example chocolate or white cake
with chocolate or white frosting)
must be ordered in advance
from the Pastry Kitchen location
(9 Travis Street Boston)

May's Suggestions:

their sashimi is really fresh. large thick slices. with bowls of rice on the side. (but 1 think many people prefer nigiri over sashimi.) from the sushi a la carte page i usually get tuna, yellowtail, salmon, mackerel. all of the raw maki rolls are good. when i called the restaurant they said they can put everything on large platters. the seaweed salad is also good. yakitori (appetizer page) is good - bbq chicken on skewers.
