This WP didn't make the cut. The URL suggests it may have originally been a P1 event but I can't imagine there are too many P1s who'd willingly subject themselves to even more of Neil's hand-picked selections.

Posts on AFF don't often make me laugh, but this one sure did!

I seem to recall seeing a similar email offering to attend a QF event along the same same lines. I am P1 and lost all interest when I noticed "we invite you to use your points and be the first to experience Neil Perry’s new restaurant" IME P1 invites are free.

I completely misunderstood the thread title...

I thought QF we’re giving WPs 50k points for eating at NP’s new digs.

I was mildly interested at that point.

SYD+1 and I (both WP) received said invite. It’s a short stagger/Uber to/from the venue, but we’ll save our points for something more useful (but probably still with NP selections and how can we forget the “inspired salad”)....

I feel a Larry David moment coming on here....just how inappropriate would it be to give Neil some candid feedback at this event on his inspired in-flight cuisine?
