The nice thing about TGIF (and the only reason we still go there after NYPHP
general meetings) is that they typically have a lot of space around the bar,
and can generally accomodate a dozen or more at tables if that's preferred.
Some of these smaller bars, while nicer, don't take kindly to large
unexpected crowds.
