Applications for the YC Summer 2011 batch close on March 20th. If you're in the Bay Area or Chicago and want to get some in-person feedback about your application from some YC alumni, Grubwithus is hosting a series of dinners to do just that! Just join the Hacker News Grubwithus group at http://www.grubwith.us/groups/hacker-news and we'll notify you when the meals are posted.

#5Please give as much notice as possible, last minute plane tickets are prohibitively expensive.

#7Just joined the group and am looking forward to this (I'm a 4 hour drive from SF).
Are there any tentative dates or thoughts on what day of the week this might happen?

#8Sounds awesome, just joined. Would appreciate a few days notice if possible since I'd be coming to SF from NYC. If any YC alums are up for doing something similar in NYC please let me know too. Thanks again

#10Barring a new remote dining edition of Grubwithus, I'll have to wait for the Winnipeg dinners for YC alumni. :)
But in all seriousness, I'd love it if someone would consider taking a glance at our application. People who should know have been telling us we're on to something, but I worry that we're just not communicating that effectively. I could pledge to eat during the feedback process if that helps.
