I have always been amazed at how good the food is at Jack Doyle's, and how much they put out in that buffet! I lean towards the chicken and the salmon. Appetizers are pretty yummy, too!

And make sure to enter Tony Pool for a chance to win tickets to Two Strangers carry a cake... and Operation Mincemeat! And that's in addition to Titanique, Dog Day Afternoon, off-Broadway's Marilyn Exposed, Saw the musical and a tour of The Musuem of Broadway! If you're counting that makes 7 winners ... and you could be one of them!
