We missed djev but we did get a surprise visit from DFWTripGuy.

I look forward to seeing folks next month.

Sorry! Family got in the way... :rolleyes:

Better than an icy freeway in Arkansas. ;)

A friendly reminder. :)

djev Jan 6, 2005 7:58 pm

I'm in! My flights changed, I'll get in from LGA early!

Definitely in! Looking forward to a Dallas meet... something to ease the transition back to AA when Delta leaves on the 31st.

Someone asked about Thai food. If it's just you, there's a mom-and-pop place called "Best Thai" on Midway just south of Belt Line (Addison) that's fantastic. No ambience or wine list, but amazing food.

For a gathering, Tom Tom in the West Village (Lemmon and McKinney-ish) is newfangled but good and has a great bar. Very lively atmosphere as with everywhere in the West Village.


If people here like Japanese food (not necessarily sushi, but sushi too), I highly recommend a little place called Waka in north Dallas, Tollway and Haverwood in the strip mall next to Bali Moon. The owner, Seiji Wakabayashi, is masterful. Miso-marinated kobe beef, avocado-tuna tartare, grilled bone-in hamachi-kama, etc. $2.50 sake and $1.50 sushi during happy hour, 5:30-7 Monday-Saturday.

Just a thought for a future gathering maybe. See y'all next Saturday.

Thanks, platbrownguy! I had asked about the Thai restaurants. I'll have to check them out.

They way it's raining/snowing in CA now, I may need a boat to traverse the freeways :eek:

swag Jan 10, 2005 4:50 pm

Well, I thought/hoped I'd be out west skiing, but that trip has been postponed. So count me in for Saturday. :)

Off to San Diego to (like boilermaker) deal with rain and mud.

I know of three more "maybe" folks for Saturday evening... I have asked them to post if/when they firm their plans up so we can have the appropriate size table.

empedocles Jan 11, 2005 10:53 am

I'm still a maybe. I'll confirm by tomorrow.
