Organizers of big group dinners have it rough. The individual is subjected to the whims of 5 to 15 people or more, often on an email chain where the last suggestion paired with a witty retort or clever anecdote about the level of attractiveness of the staff at such-and-such restaurant wins. Well, screw it. If you volunteer to organize a group/birthday/going away/welcome home dinner, use this new fool-proof method and eliminate haggling amongst potential dinner-goers. It's not complicated. It's a lottery, but unlike the New York state variety or credit card roulette, in this game of chance everyone wins. Write down each restaurant on the list below on a separate piece of paper, shuffle 'em around, and pull from a hat. First restaurant wins. It's not complicated, it's just science. Bon chance!

At the Date Night premiere: 1. Steve Carell - "Boy! You know what? On the way in, we drove by Shun Lee. My wife and I, when we lived here, we ate there all the time. John's Pizza was one of our favorite pizza places. Any one, but, certainly, the one in the Village, and I think they opened one up off Times Square. That's just always good." 2. Tina Fey - "My favorite restaurant in the world is a restaurant in Chicago, called the Athenaeum Room. Favorite dish? Chicken on french fries." 3. Taraji P. Henson - "The Little Owl. I went there the other night!" 4. Jimmi Simpson - "Providence, on Melrose, in Los Angeles. Any special dish? The five-course tasting menu." 5. Carol Alt - "Actually, I like Pure Food and Wine because it's a raw restaurant. What do you like there? Well, just about everything, but their ice cream is killer! Raw ice cream -- unbelievable, unbelievable. I eat at a lot of Japanese places, so I can have raw fish. I'm a raw foodist, so it, kind of, limits."
