PHX Dinner-Do June 17 Details Here!
 

OK, so whoever can, let's converge on Sam's Cafe in the upstairs of the Biltmore Fashion Park Mall at 2566 E. Camelback in Phoenix, June 17 at 6:30 PM. For those unfamiliar with Sam's, it's kind of a Santa Fe/Mex blend, great atmosphere, great food, fairly reasonable prices.

I'll talk to them about reservations, etc.

Jan_AZ is in, as are The Banking Scot & myself. Please respond here so I can keep reservations up-to-date.

I'll be happy to help the Banking Scot with a ride, and others that may be car-less as needed.

JP

Hi,

Sounds good to me. Thanks for booking it and for the offer of the ride.


Regards

TBS

Is this a good time to visit the Grand Canyon?

Linda

It's not a bad time. It's at a higher elevation, so temperatures are more moderate. If you come out, it will be less busy on weekdays.

JP

Hmm, just checked the car rentals and the hotels. Let me think about this.

Linda

I'll be there.

Put me down for a definite "maybe!"

I would have enjoyed attending, but will be on vacation in Cabo!

I am sure you will all have a great time, and I look forward to the next gathering!

Can we meet at Casey Moore's in Old Town Tempe?
Located at 850 South Ash Ave
480-968-9925.

I can at least get us a round of free drinks and some appetizers.

Hi Centurion,

We had set this up according to some of our guest's wishes for food, atmosphere, etc., so I think it's best to continue with our original plans. Perhaps we can try this for a future do. Hope you can join us!

JP

Bump for one week alert! Any other takers?

JP

I'm in.

I've got a reservation for tomorrow evening (Tuesday) for 5-6 people at Sam's for 6:30 PM. Ask for the Flyertalk table. See you there!

JP

Sorry I missed this one, as I arrived PHX last nite after 6pm. How about doing this again later on at a "hotter" place, like CARLSBAD TAVERN, RICHARDSON'S or LOS DOS MOLINOS III?

Sounds like someone just volunteered to coordinate the next one!

I'll be around July 8, 9, 10... if anyone is up for it....

I'll be here, techgirl. What area are you staying in? Any special restaurant requests?

Geez, all these PHX events are during the week instead of the weekend http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

I'll be in Scottsdale...

Tuesday I will finish up work midafternoon so I could do any time, any area - don't mind driving wherever...

Wednesday I'll work until 7 and will be staying in Scottsdale that night (have to be back on site at 7 am)...

Thursday I'll finish up around 7 and move to a hotel close to Sky Harbor... so again, anything that night...

I'm open to suggestions although janaz has mentioned to me several times that the area has great sushi. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

I'm in Vegas the 8th, but could do the 9th or 10th.

Isn't "great sushi" an oxymoron? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/eek.gif

JP

In that case, I have two possible suggestions:

1) If jan_az is in town and available, we could visit her local sushi place over in the nether regions of the westside. From a past FlyerTalk dinner there, it is a pretty good place.

2) We could meet at Casey Moore's Oyster House (as FlyerTalker Centurion suggests above) for their great happy hour. Later, we could move on to Ra Sushi.

Both are located in Downtown Tempe-- my stomping grounds. My favorite restaurant is located here (Trick's-- site of a recent FlyerTalk dinner), as well as some other good places. Tempe is quite proximate to the airport, Scottsdale, downtown Phoenix, etc. and home to Arizona State University.
