In Houston next week. Dinner anyone?

[VaSteve]

I'll be in Houston next week. I know there's a few of you there. Anyone want to grab dinner/beers one night (Mon - Wed)? I will be in the Galleria area and will have a car.

[Pazuzu]

Yes.




Oh, you want details? I'm 5 minutes from there, I can do whatever whenever. No one likes my suggestions when someone comes, so we always let Red-beard decide, since he cries if we don't go where he wants. you won't want to see him cry, it's a pitiful sight.



Within 10 minutes of the Galleria is about 3 of every single kind of cuisine you can think of, you're at the heart of the Houston foodie scene.

I think Red Beard should treat us all to din-din at Fogo de Chao.

[bivenator]

I like the way you think. Tues or Weds better for me, dont expect to make the din din but am up for drinks in the follow up.

[VaSteve]

I'm up for pretty much anything EXCEPT Canyon Cafe. When I ate there in May I got food poisoning something fierce.

I'm working downtown, but will knock off for the day between 5-5:30 and free after that.

Anyone good at organizing...or at least picking a place/time?

[David]

I'll try to make it.

[David]

I don't the Galleria area too well any more but there are hundreds of restaurants around there. I probably can't be there til 8pm or so.

[VaSteve]

I'm thinking Wed evening....there's a ton of stuff up here..any suggestions?

[Pazuzu]

What about just drinks instead of dinner? Seems like a few people can show up around 8ish, I can plan that as well.

I dunno, Champp's? Find a Woodrows?

[BRPORSCHE]

gingermans?

[Pazuzu]

Depends on Steve how far he wants to drive from the Galleria.

So, we can look at 5 minutes, 10 minutes or 20 minute circles.

[bivenator]

Both of those are good, probably lean to woodrows and 8pm if left to me. Bueller? Bueller?

[VaSteve]

Sounds good to me, I have no problem driving a little bit and drinks ~8 are just fine.
THere's a woodrows on Chimney Rock Rd and the streets are names I recognize from the drive this morning so it must be close!

[Pazuzu]

The Woodrows on Chimney Rock might be blisteringly busy, usually is. It's a BIG Woodrows. However, it has food.

There's on one Bellaire, about 3 blocks inside the loop, it's a LITTLE Woodrows. No food, no crowds.

5060 W Alabama St, Houston, TX 77056 to 4235 Bellaire Blvd, Houston, TX 77025 - Google Maps

Big Woodrows always has the risk of being busy, there's no rhyme or reason. Parking sucks too.

[VaSteve]

No parking for car guys is undoable! Little woodrows on bellaire at 8 tomorrow sounds great. Do you all know each other, will I be the only one looking lost?

[bivenator]

Done, see you there. If I knew what ya looked like.

[Pazuzu]

I'll have my p-car there, and I'll be wearing a Flying Lizard shirt. I'll try to be there before 8, it's literally about 5 blocks from my house.

The rest of us have met each other on various occasions.

People always seem to show up at these things even if they don't post up.

I look like the type of guy that would drive a Porsche.
I'll probably have a look of agony on my face, this rental Camry stinks!

See you all there.

[David]

I'll be there around 8. No P-car tonight since I'll be valeting in the Medical center before I see you guys.

[bivenator]

Wife is hosing me and not in a good way. My attendence is in doubt or at least my punctuality.
