Dallas GTG?
 
Any thoughts on a Dallas GTG this summer?

TxTravelPro May 19th, 2008 02:54 PM

Would love to, if I am in town!
Maybe something Uptown or around Northpark?

I would love it . . . any chance of it being in north Dallas? I'm in Denton.

that's fine for me, too. If we make it Grapevine, (mall area), then that is pretty central for the Metroplex folks and findable for the Okies, yes? :)

I'm in!

Ok... I am in Wylie, which is between Mckinney and Rockwall.
I am about 1 hour from Grapevine, even further from Denton.
75 and 190 (Bush) is 25 minutes West.
What about the Galleria area?
That may make the drive 30-40 minutes for everyone.
Maybe we could even meet AT the Galleria... at Grand Luxe.
???

sarge56 May 21st, 2008 05:03 PM

Well, sandy could come down 35E and take 635 East and she might get there in a hair under an hour. :)

Galleria is fine for me. Let's set a date or a couple possible dates?

Saturday lunch? Friday night dinner?

Do tell. :)

Just came back from DFW today! Hot hot hot.

I'll be back on the 2nd of July which is tentative. I'll be in the downtown/uptown area.

I'm game for a gtg.

TxTravelPro May 22nd, 2008 05:31 AM

Saturday lunch would be my vote... but Friday dinner could work too, if it was early enough.

sandy_b May 22nd, 2008 05:41 AM

Sat lunch gets mine, too. I hate to drive after dark!

I'll be in Israel from July 8-23, hopefully we can find a date for everyone.

In case I miss this post, you can email me at [email protected].

How does Saturday, June 21st sound?

Lunch at Grand Lux Cafe sounds incredible! I'm all for that! They open at 11am. So should we meet then, or noon?

TxTravelPro May 22nd, 2008 09:04 PM

Man, you actually suggested a date squeezed between 2 trips... so I could do it!
That place gets NUTS on a Saturday and they generally will not let you hold a table for 10 (or whatever). Everyone has to be there to be seated.
So, I would suggest that most of us arrive by 11:30 to get a big table.

sarge56 May 22nd, 2008 11:03 PM

Well, that is no prob for me. I'm in SW Arlington, so it will only take me about 40 mts to get there. (And then Sam Moon will be on the way home!) :)

Paula

PS Once we get date and time pegged, we probably should post on Lounge, too.

Have a great holiday weekend!

sandy_b May 23rd, 2008 06:35 AM

That works for me . . .

sarge56 Jun 2nd, 2008 05:31 PM

topping. Anyone else in?

sandi_travelnut Jun 3rd, 2008 05:23 AM

So when and where?

TxTravelPro Jun 3rd, 2008 06:32 AM

Y'all tell me and I will be there :)

TxTravelPro Jun 3rd, 2008 06:34 AM

Where is Christie_P?

BeachGirl247 Jun 3rd, 2008 03:42 PM

What date did you decide upon?

sarge56 Jun 3rd, 2008 04:42 PM

Saturday, June 21st. Lunch at Grand Lux Cafe, Galleria, Dallas. Actual address is 13420 N. Dallas Parkway, Dallas, TX 75240. Phone is (972) 385-3114.

Here is their website: http://www.grandluxcafe.com/index.htm

And here is "map" of Galleria showing where Grand Lux is:

http://www.galleriadallas.com/index.php#cnt_directory

So we have so far:

1) sarge56
2) TxTravelPro
3) sandy_b
4) ??? sandi_travelnut
4) ??? Beachgirl247

Surely, we have MORE Fodorites in DFW/OK, don't we???
