SFO Thursdays

Hey gang,

I'll be in the SFO area every Thursday evening every week until the end of this year. I'm mainly around the airport and Daly City, but BART is there for a reason. Anyone interested in a couple of mini-DOs?

Watch this first post for updates! See Post#15!

Sept 14th
Most definitely:
--Jet2K
--IceTrojan

Maybes:
--90min

There's always an expandable core group of SF/Peninsula FTers who would be delighted to meet a member from the dAArk side. Suggest you propose a Thurs. that might work for you and perhaps a location/cuisine -- Millbrae, Burlingame, Italian/Mandarin, etc. and see what can be stirred up.

Come to the East Bay! Or at least into the city.

That's the thing... I'm game on any Thursday from now to Dec, willing to go wherever (but preferably near a BART station) and I love almost all food! So anything I pick will be a shot in the dark.

Uhhh.... how about Sept 14 at a good Italian place?

Sure! Any must-try places? How about Sept 21?

Chapeau in San Francisco for early bird dinner would probably on the must-try list. We had a FT dinner with 16 people in July and I think eveyone enjoyed it.

I can probably give you a ride from one of the BART stations.

I went to Farmer Brown a while ago and I thought it was ok as well. Close to Powell BART station and downtown SF.

Hey, that would be very much appreciated. Alright, who's down for Sept 14th in SF? And also Sept 21st in the East Bay if there's enough interest?

Hope you can make it. Tell her it's an important meeting.

I also still need a place... Farmer Brown sounds good. I'd like to go to that other early dinner, but doubt I'd make it in time. Comments?

Honestly I don't know... I didn't get too much response so I just let the thread die. I'm still available though.

FYI - I'll be staying at the Hyatt Regency SFO, but can BART it. I can leave Daly City by 6:30pm.

Perhaps we can have dinner at one of my favorite hole in the wall Chinese place, "8 Immortal" in the Sunset district in San Francisco. Good food, inexpensive price, and I doubt they will ever have their own website. I have been going there for over 20 years, and I think will be going there for the next twenty.

Since it is only a day away, perhaps it would be useful if we get in touch by phone to coordinate, my cell number: xxx-xxxx. Anyone else interested to join us please also feel free to call me.

Sounds good... I'll have to figure out where the Sunset district is, but I'm good with them Google maps.

Looks like we will have a mini-DO at:

Eight Immortals Restaurant
1433 Taraval St
San Francisco, CA 94116

About 7pm on Thursday night, 9/14. Since I am not sure how many people will be attending, I will not be making any reservations. I will see if I can arrange to pick up IceTrojan either at BART or at his work place.

This is an inexpensive place, dinner for eight could run as little as $10 a person or so.
