Dear PIE SIG Members,

I hope you’re off to a great start this semester!

With PanSIG 2026 in Nagoya just around the corner, we’re planning a relaxed PIE SIG dinner on Saturday night. And since we’re PIE SIG, we thought it would be only fitting to enjoy a little pizza pie together 🍕

**Date & Time:** Saturday, May 23, 6:00–7:30 PM  
**Location:** Cannery Row – Yagoto (about a 10–15 minute walk from the conference venue)

Cannery Row is a popular Italian-style restaurant known for its all-you-can-eat antipasto and dessert buffet. You order a main dish (pasta or pizza), and it comes with access to a buffet of salads, deli-style antipasti, and plenty of desserts (cakes, mousse, puddings, and more). A drink bar may also be available depending on the set.

**Estimated cost:** 2,000–3,000 yen per person

As it’s a popular spot, we’ll need to make our reservation early.

If you’d like to join us, please RSVP by **April 30** at:  
[reesgordon@gmail.com](mailto:reesgordon@gmail.com)

There are also a variety of bars in the Yagoto area, so there will be plenty of opportunities to continue socializing after dinner for those who are interested.

It should be a great chance to relax, connect, and share a slice of PIE with fellow SIG members. We’d love to have you join us!

Best,
