DINE AROUND PROGRAM
Pittsburgh has a wide variety of interesting dining experiences for you to
enjoy, including many unique ethnic restaurants. If you are here early/late
for a CE course or your friends have not arrived yet, or you just want to
meet new people in a relaxed atmosphere, then the Dine Around Program is for
you! Members of the Pittsburgh Chapter have chosen a few of their
favourites to share with you. From an old house in Shadyside to a Northside
brewery join us on Saturday evening or Tuesday evening. Sign up sheets will
be at the Hospitality Booth. You will have a choice of 2-4 different
restaurants. Price ranges, type of food and the host/hostess will be listed
for each restaurant Of course, each person pays his or her own share of the
bill. Come join us for dinner. We look forward to meeting "yunz!"
DINE AROUND UPDATE
Saturday evening
- Sushi Too, 5432 Walnut St., Shadyside.
Sushi Too is a moderate to expensive Japanese restaurant. It is located
in Shadyside, among many interesting local shops. As the name implies,
Sushi is the main attraction, but there are also many other options
available. These include excellent teriyaki, seafood, and vegetarian
dishes. The menu also includes Japanese beers and liquors. We will be
in a private room, with Japanese decore and floor seating. (space for 16 people)
