SNA 09/02 - FT lunch
 

To make it more clear to everybody, I decided to start a new thread regarding Rudi coming to the U.S. and another meeting near SNA.

I will be flying to CA on 09/01 as well, and in the other thread, we decided to meet for lunch near SNA on 09/02.

So far, it seems like Rudi and me (rcs85551) plus a maybe from SanDiego1K and AnnaS (chat).

Please post here to confirm / add yourself to the list.

I am looking forward very much for this sunday brunch or lunch.

I'll stay (Saturday to Sunday) at the Irvine Marriott (tf 949-726-3608, Rudi Martel) and will leave SNA on Sunday, sep-2 at 16:55 (UA 5311 to LAX and further on).

My plane leaves at 10:30 am, but I might be able to change it.

I think auh2o wants to come along as well.

I should be able to meet all of you for brunch on the 2nd. I am having Lasik on 08/31 and hopefully won't run into any problems.

I'm supposed to be in Tijuana, Mexico at this time. Count me in.

The big questions are now:
a) where to meet
b) which restaurant?

I do know my way around the area, but I am not familiar with the restaurants nor SNA airport itself.
Anybody any suggestions?

There is a Houston's about 5 minutes away, and a couple other restaurants near the Houston's. There is also an Edwards movie theatre, and an 18 hole putting green. A bit further away is the South Coast Plaza, and some good restaurants. Even further is Fashion Island. Nothing more than 15 minutes from SNA.

Wish I could be there! Will be out of town for the labor day weekend.

I'm fairly sure I can make it.

There is a Yardhouse nearby so we can see which Flyertalkers can down a Yard. Again! The Yardhouse is also a good place for a large lunch group. Rudi, I don't know if a Yard of beer is good or bad for your constitution before a flight to BKK?

Newself, I can give you a ride if you haven't recovered yet. In either case, I'm sure you could use a Yard. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I'm in. I'll see if I can twist Captain Mike's arm to make the drive north with me.

Stimpy,

You bet I could use a ride that day. Besides needing a yard or three, it will be good to see you again! Even more clearly this time without glasses or contacts! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Did someone mention Yard House? For lunch? Ohhhhhh. Heaven.

OK, so there seems to be consent about the Yard House. I guess we'll take the Irvine location http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif - I am quite stunned that I actually know where it is and how to get there http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/cool.gif
For those in need of additional info: http://www.yardhouse.com

I will call them later today and check about their hours and check whether we'll need a reservation or not.

I'm in for this as well! I just need to be able to get back to LAX in time for my 4PM flight back to ORD. Looking forward to seeing everyone! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Finally I can meet some of the local people, and some of the more distant! I would like to attend also.
