San Francisco dinner on Friday, January 8

lucky9876coins · Dec 25, 09, 6:18 pm

Hi Folks:

I'll be in town for the weekend and would love to have dinner with any FlyerTalkers that might be around on Friday, January 8. If all goes as planned I'll land at SFO just before 5PM, so I propose dinner at 8PM. And I'm talking about a legit San Francisco dinner, as opposed to the usual Burlingame dinners I host. I'll be staying at the IC (888 Howard).

Dinner will be at Tropisueno at 9PM for a party of 20 under the name "Ben." Hope to see some of you there!

Sorry, I'll still be in Buenos Aires. If it is going to be a small group without a budget too restricted (but nothing in the expensive department) I think that Town Hall or Salt House would make for a fun and delicious meal, both not terribly far from the hotel.

possibly. i have a 6am flight to den (and then on to bos for a same day turn 'n burn) the next day (1/9) so it might just give me a reason to stay up all night

Pat89339 · Dec 25, 09, 7:33 pm

You can confirm me!

rob_flies_ua · Dec 25, 09, 7:42 pm

I can probably make it.

Palal · Dec 25, 09, 9:28 pm

Won't make it, sorry... in LA that weekend.

awc4 · Dec 26, 09, 12:41 am

Would love to join in...let me know where you end up.

DCBob · Dec 26, 09, 9:12 am

I don't arrive in SFO until 9:30 PM (on CO) but would attend if you are up for late night drinks on Friday.

boxo · Dec 26, 09, 11:58 am

I'm on a noon NW flight to NRT the next day, so will be spending the night at SFO. Count me in.

TrekkerMary · Dec 26, 09, 12:19 pm

I'm flying in on UA 955. I have a tight connection to RNO. Given the extra security overseas - I'm guessing its likely that I'll miss my connection. If so, count me in!

Town Hall is indeed nice

Another nice place if the group is small would be the House, although that is near North Beach.

Im a very unlikely maybe. I leave morning of the 9th (6am out of SJC ugghh), but its my sister's birthday on the 8th so Ill probably be busy with that...However, if I somehow dont get tied up with that, Id like to....

Thanks, looks like a fun crowd so far! Did you guys have a preference as far as time goes? While I'll likely be tired either way, the later the better for me (since I'd love to go the gym and shower before dinner, but then again I'm flexible). And it sounds like DCBob might be able to join us for the tail end of dinner and/or drinks if we have dinner late. So what do you folks think?

JoeJSFB · Dec 26, 09, 5:36 pm

Count me in.

As far as time is concerned: later is better since I can avoid the rush hour commute from Oakland to the Peninsula.

I'd suggest Mexican, but I have a feeling we're personas non grata there.

I'd love to join you all for dinner. Later is probably better for me as well since I'll be coming up from the south bay.
