MBI Dinner At MACNA 2015

I'm going to try and plan our annual dinner at MACNA in DC. I hope to have a venue pinned down before I leave for the UK on August 12. The dinner will be on Thursday, Sept 3.
 
I need to have an accurate head count to make the reservation so if you're going to be at MACNA and want to attend the MBI dinner I must have your RSVP as soon as possible.

Looks a little pricey, but Petit Plats gets my vote.  Fine with any of them, but raw fish is not my thing, though I love Japanese food.

Welcome to D.C.  They're all pricey.  I don't dine downtown so i can't give a firsthand report on these three. However if you decide to move to the VA suburbs I can make recommendations.  That brings up the logistical challenge of getting people from DC hotels or subway stops to the restaurant.  
 

I'm going to call them on Monday. They might require the fixed price menu for a large group. I do like the fact that they have private rooms though.

Yeah, I need to keep it within walking distance. It would get complicated if I had to get 30+ people transported.

Erica and I are looking forward to seeing you again Kathy!

Umi can't handle large parties and Mama is too complicated. I will call and confirm with Petit Plats before I leave town.

It's right across from the Metro station! I might not be too late!

I heard Tal has an aiptasia zapper he's going to use as a cattle prod to encourage you if you are running late.

I don't log into Facebook more than every 6 months or so.  Can someone confirm to me that dinner is at Petit Plats on Thursday evening, September 3?  And what time is the dinner?
 
Many thanks.

Yes Dave, 8 pm DC time.
 
See you there.
