New Work City’s “mayor” or, more appropriately, “Don” Tony Bacigalupo, Ana Hevesi, and Peter Chislett hosted the 15th installment of TechDrinks last night at Lunasa in Manhattan’s East Village neighborhood.  In addition to the drink specials and discounts on food, Lunasa also offered its own, homemade egg nog, which the more adventurous attendees decided to try (As it turns out, it wasn’t half bad.  Some even got it served with a cherry.)

I was joined there by serial entrepreneur Sanford Dickert, Launchsquad’s Miko Mercer and Jason Mandell, photographer Steven Alleyne, project manager rob Kelley, flavorize’s Eunice Chou, homingCloud’s Tina Fine, Loud Feed’s Ron Suarez, user-experience designer Whitney Hess, Ultra Light Startups’ Graham Lawlor, Monster’s Marshall Sponder, the “Internet’s music teacher” Walt Ribeiro, Brainewave Consulting’s Mike Caprio, Didit’s Elliot Ronen, LMG digitalMedia’s Andre Archimbaud, HomeShop Technologies’ Hermann Mazard, Black Graphics’ Karen Perry, and Fenton Communications’ Kara Masi.  (If I managed to miss you, you can let me know here.)

Gah! I was planning on going (ex-gf Kara in 2nd pic was cool with it and all, too) but J and I ended up exchanging gifts last night since we’re traveling to Connecticut to see her folks tonight - Saturday. Looks like a fun time :)
