Default California peeps...

A few of us are getting together for dinner in Saturday, if anyone would like to join us.

Going so far:
Me
Colleen and Mark
American Made and his GF
JustinStrife (coming up from SanD)
Texas Bulldog

Maybe:
Nox
Swany
Me2 +1

Here's where we'll be:

Date: Saturday, December 8th
Time: 6:00 PM
Place: Antonio's on Melrose
Address: 7470 Melrose Ave., Hollywood, CA


Antonio's on Melrose



This is a cool little spot in Hollywood. Great, family-owned, Mexican restaurant.

They have a private room that can accommodate us. Totally relaxed and laid back. We can hang out and not be in a hurry, have some good food and a few margaritas. The staff is very attentive and they aren't pissy about *ahem* lively groups.

The only down side to this place is parking. I usually park on Melrose and have to walk a block or two. I've never had any issues, but it's something to keep in mind.

If you know you will be coming, please respond here. If you're bringing your SO (or whatever), let me know, as well.

You're a good sport, Red. Hopefully, we'll all get to meet you in BG in May.

I would, but I just got back to work today after having the stomach flu. I don't want to hit my stomach with Mexican food so early after getting over this flu. It was nasty stuff.

Only 104 mi one way! I drive to LAX frequently, but not during drive-time. I would be swallowed up in traffic probably.

That's hilarious! My mother and grandmother used to live at 813 Vista, right around the corner from there! We used to go to the Olvera St. market for lunch.

Luckily, I hang out with someone for which the CA gun laws do not apply.

Now, put your guns down for a minute and go outside and play. There's wimmenz out there.

They have a pretty diverse menu. I think there's even some harmless American dishes on there.

Or come and just hang out...have a beer, glass of wine or a drink.

Lame. It's on a Saturday. You may run into a little traffic, but nothing like during the week. Some of us are actually meeting up early, to hang out before dinner.
