  • Down the 55 freeway from the show there is a Yard House in Triangle Square. Good beer and food to be had if we want to keep close to where the out-of-towners are staying? Then there's always South Coast and all the other restaurants near there (Mastro's, Morton's, Maggiano's, Red Robin, Claim Jumper, Season 52, Charlie Palmer, Anqi, etc.)

    There are also plenty of Japanese places nearby. I like Yamada Ya Ramen off of Fairview and Baker, and there's always the Mitsuwa (Santoka Ramen) and Marukai (Daikokuya).

  • Im ok with anything! :)
  • Count me in!
  • I'm in too!!!
  • I remember a Japanese place in fountain valley. Kappo Honda
  • The exhibits end at 7pm on Saturday, think 8pm is a good time for the reservation (if we need one)?
  • I thought it was over on Sunday? Or is this just a Saturday thing that we are doing?
  • 815 so the late crew can stash their dogs and I can inform the wife that she is my DD for the night.
  • I would prefer to do the dinner on Saturday than Sunday. I figured folks would be traveling home Sunday evening.
  • Just a reminder that some hotels don't allow dogs to be left alone in the room. If you have a secure vehicle, it should be cool enough that they can be left in them. (I'm always freezing during the Pet Expo evenings.)

    Yeah, it gets pretty cold some evenings there, so bring a jacket! :)

    Also, I'm in for whatever! =] ohhh and tara @tjbart17 is done with her cleanse! She can drink again! lol
  • I'd LOVE to go...hopefully I'll get Saturday off from work or I can work an earlier shift. I can't say for certain until I know my work schedule but I'm definitely interested.
  • If...and that's a big if...I was in town for that weekend would someone be willing to be my ride for a little gas money? It'll be just me, my brothers could watch Micah.

    If you mean you need a ride from the expo or your hotel to the restaurant, I can do that.
  • @okiron Do you want to go down to see your family? I'll be going.
  • @poeticdragon - that's what I meant and thank you for the offer :)

    @tjbart17 I'm planning to go down in May anyway, just contemplating going down earlier. It'll depend on test results later this month :P
  • @okiron Test results? Are you ok? What's going on?
  • @tjbart17 just trying for a baby still :)
  • Rina, if I go your more them welcome to hitch a ride with me to where ever we are going to eat. If I end up having to work that day, I will be getting off at 2:30pm so I will head up soon after.
  • darn! im going to miss this by 4 days! :(
  • @okiron you can drive down with Koda and I. Just meet me in WC.
  • That sounds great! Wish I could see the dogs and meet some of you.
  • @tjbart17 thanks Tara, I'll let you know whats up
  • So yeah, I will not be attending. My vacation got pushed to late May because we're making an unforeseen trip down this weekend.
  • @okiron Yeah!!!!! How are you getting down there?
  • Errik will be driving both times. He decided to join us for the trip in May.
  • Sounds like 8:15 is a good time, lets finalize a restaurant. So far the suggestions are:

    "Down the 55 freeway from the show there is a Yard House in Triangle Square. Good beer and food to be had if we want to keep close to where the out-of-towners are staying?

    "I remember a Japanese place in fountain valley. Kappo Honda."
  • I just realized this is Koda and Tora's birthday! I'll have to have a drink for them. he he.

    I'll go anywhere, and I can take anyone who needs a ride. I'll be staying at the Ramada in Costa Mesa.

    I submitted forms for requested shifts at work. I was told by my scheduling supervisor that it should not be a problem. So it's looking like I'll be able to do dinner that Saturday night, yay! I might be a +1, +2, +3 or +4, lol. =p


    About how many of us will be attending dinner? We should get an approximate count so that we can decide on a restaurant. Since it should be a restaurant with enough seating for us all.
  • Good point! So who is going?

    I will be by myself.
