* 6:00 pm - Before each meeting a group of GTALUGers dine at Love At First Bite (96 Gerrard Street E).
Let's try doing this again, vote for where you want to go for dinner before the August GTALUG meeting <http://survey.gtalug.org/index.php/642325>.

| From: Myles Braithwaite <me@mylesbraithwaite.com> | Let's try doing this again, vote for where you want to go for dinner | before the August GTALUG meeting | <http://survey.gtalug.org/index.php/642325>. Thanks! You present several good choices. I see that this time we are only allowed to vote for one. Last time we were allowed to tick more than one. I'd prefer to see a way of providing more information. I'm not sure what it would look like. Ranking? Fractional votes? More details of the choices: Restaurant Formerly Known As Love at First Bite (Pizza) We know this one. Not bad at all. Kaiju (Japanese Curry) - we went there once before. Service a bit overwhelmed but very polite and accomodating. - one of several restaurants in the food court. + allows alternate choices while eating together + but most are closed at our time Hokkaido Ramen Santouka Japanese noodle soup chain. <http://www.santouka.co.jp/en/menu/index.html> <http://www.yelp.ca/biz/hokkaido-ramen-santouka-toronto-2> Lou Dawg's (BBQ) We've been there once (some of us more, I think). <http://loudawgs.com/home.html> The Senator (Diner) <http://thesenator.com/> Apparently the New York Times reviewed it! By the prices, I'd call this a faux diner. The cheapest entree (today?) is "8 oz Cumbrae’s Naturally Raised Beef Burger - $16" (Cumbrae is a very well thought of local butcher) OPA! of Greece Dundas Street (Greek) <http://www.opasouvlaki.ca/home> A national chain / franchise. May well be good. Banh Mi Boys (Vietnamese) <http://www.banhmiboys.com/menu.htm> I remember discovering Banh Mi on Spadina, near Dundas. Amazing sandwiches for $1 or $1.25. Well they've gone up there to perhaps $2 (I haven't looked since TLUG and Hacklab deserted the area. These guys do an upmarket version. Surely worth the money. But it makes me wistful for the good old days ("more authentic"). Roti Roll Caribbean Cuisine <http://www.rotiroll.com/caribbeanFood.php#abouttemp-box> Each of these is probably yelped if you wish to read comments.

This is more of a test of the LimeSurvey web application. There is a way to do ranking questions[1] in LimeSurvey so we can try that next month. [1]: <https://manual.limesurvey.org/Question_type_-_Ranking>

Also there is that fine Japanese noodle place at young and Gerrard. . And they can handle our numbers for sure. David On Aug 5, 2015 8:31 AM, "Myles Braithwaite" <me@mylesbraithwaite.com> wrote:
