mmmmmmmm Dominican food, I was there 2 weeks ago and it was like being back there..... and for me it has been a long time, perhaps I will join. Will confirm closer to the date.

Debs how are you? It's been a long time. Hope things are good with you, have you spoken with Helen??

Please count me in

I had a nice time at Las Brisas but starting kinda late (for me) on a Sunday in that deep freeze was a bit inhibiting.

8PM on a Saturday at the end of May looks much more conducive to mucho partying.
Maybe I will even make it to the dance floor this time.

I will definately be cabbing it that night.

Thanks Music and I hope to see you all there.

I may be able to make it, but can't be sure. I'll be in Toronto area either that weekend or the next. Definitely the week after that. Currently have a client in Concord and staying in Markham area. I visited the Dominican restaurant a couple of weeks ago and the food was pretty good. Was dissapointed that they had no Presidente or Barcelo...oh well...

Stopped at a bar called La Romana, less than a block away from the Dominican restaurant, thinking that it was a Dominican bar, but it turned out ot be Brazilian/argentinian crowd.

Anyhow...will try to make it.

I live in Mississauga, Ont.

Angel we will talk more on MSN, but a car pool would be great...then we don't have to worry about the same thing happening as last time! lol

I am deffinatly coming...even though I am still extremely dissapointed that there is no Presidente beer :(

Something needs to be done about the lack of Presidente in Canada....I think I will write a letter to the government complaining about this! :D :p :laugh: They are obviously not doing a good job taking care of their citizens when we have no Presidente to drink!!!!

I forgot that I'll be in New York the weekend before! Maybe I'll bring some back from there for our get together! Although my friend in NY says it does not taste the same. Just like the Brugal we have in Toronto...not the same taste at all!

Hahaha...my luggage was wayyy more then overweight...it was obese!! :p
And I had already left behind a bunch of my clothes and shoes in my room down there.I couldn't even lift it...thank goodness it had wheels.

Trust me if there was ANY room for even a small bottle of Presidente it would have been in there!! I had to leave behind a bunch of thoes mini bottels of Brugal that I kept winning.lol...

I am already getting excited for the get togther...plus..the closer to the get together...the closer untill I go back to the DR :D:D If everything goes according to plan I will be going back a few weeks after.

I will have to meet up with some of the DR1 members in the DR eventually!!

Anyways...is there anyone else in the Mississauga area that wants to carpool?

I think the Presidente doesn't taste the same because of the surroundings, not the beer. At one time there was less alcohol in the US version, but now it's the same. I keep meaning to do a blind taste test, but when each time I bring some back from the DR, it's gone as soon as I turn around.
