AFC Holiday Dinner 2011
Things were a little tight at Buca di Beppo, a very popular restaurant downtown where AFC had its 2011 Holiday Gathering, but the cheer of the season and a little mingling by the Pope Room (with a lively gift exchange) lifted everyone’s spirits. The spaghetti, fettuccini and eggplant lasagna was plentiful, hearty and tasty. Then everyone took a short walk to Downtown Bar for a night cap (and a little Karaoke). Happiest of holidays to all!
