Anyone up for a last-minute pre-Christmast OC dinner at Vinny's in Newport News Tuesday12/22 7pm? My daughters don't have dance class that week so I can make a rare Tuesday appearance.

I've got a hankering for their Chicken Parmasan Sub.

Edited to add address: Vinny's Pizza and Pasta, 748 J. Clyde Morris Blvd, Newport News, VA 23601

Man I'm gonna miss another one :cry:. I can't make it as I'm leaving for Texas Saturday.
I'm going to miss being able to OC. But at least I will be able to carry. Y'all have a good time and a Merry CHRISTMAS.

[align=left]I figure that this dinner will be smaller than most since we are so close to Christmas. Let me know (via posting) as your maybe's change to definites so I can call in a reservation count. And KimberCarrier I know how you feel, I missed a couple in a row last month. :-(

We should pick a date so we can invite the Sheriff by Friday(tomorrow).
I did pick a date. I had edited the original post a while ago.

I think this is going to be a small crowd so another dinner may be better to invite the sheriff but you can invite him if you wish.

I doubt we'll be able to make it to the peninsula yet again. The last Tidewater OCDO was up there. Not really up for another trip through the tunnel, especially at that time of day.

I understand. When I thought about the post I couldn't get the Chik-parmesan sub out of my head so I picked Vinny's. You can always hold one on the southside too.

If we get homebound for a few days with this storm maybe more people will be ready to get OUT and meet for dinner. :)

Looks like a great mix of OC-dinner-seasoned
and OC-dinner-newbies. Should be fun.

Ok I called the restaurant and told them that we would be expecting around 20 people at 7pm tomorrow.

They said that they usually don't take reservationsbut they will try to get the tables together. I will try to get there early if I can but just found out some scheduling issues with my ex-wife. If anyone gets there before I do just tell them that you are part of the group and the reservation is in my name Jim Prince.

Chicken Parmesan Sub here I come....
