OTC

So, the Offshore Technology Conference is quickly approaching. (May 5-8)

Anyone, guys or girls, coming to Houston? I'd love to start compiling a list of parties and activities.

You might want to change the title to spell out "Offshore Technology Conference". Most will think OTC stand for "Off The Clock".
Great idea! That would be a great reason to visit.

It's my favorite week of the year. Every year I meet new friends who usually come back a few times throughout the year. Fun fun fun!
Im definitely coming for OTC...it's a must! I actually put a hold on online marketing and focus on my basic word of mouth marketing and receive more play pals that way. It will hopefully prove a busy month. Hoping to reunite with some old friends.

The good news is our carpet munching Mayor has more or less told the HPD to lay off the strip clubs and party girls, it's bad for business.

She knows that men do not come to the OTC to visit the museum district.

I am preparing for my annual pilgrimage to OTC and related activities that will keep me in Houston for a couple of weeks. While I have never developed an affinity for travel, Houston does has it perks. (Beautiful Women and Good Food)

Perhaps you folks can share a few ideas with me as I look for that perfect spot to dine with a lovely lady. I have visited a large number of Houston's finer establishments, but have yet located the one with the atmosphere I desire.

I am interested in a locale that truly provides for an intimate dining experience 2 to 3 hrs in length (pre-dinner cocktails, nice wine selection with meal, desert cocktails) where the tables are somewhat secluded and the noise level is low. Food choice is less important than atmosphere as long as the food is prepared properly the taste should be sufficient.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

WELL, everything will be busy during otc, but in general:

Capital Grille - ask for a booth near the back
Del Frisco's (Galleria) - some of the booths upstairs are more private
Vic & Anthony's
Damien's Cucina
Brennen's
Mark's
Ruth's Chris

You boys and girls keep an eye out, they like to bust folks right before and during the OTC.
