San Francisco GTG August 18, 2007

We'll have a GTG on Saturday at noon at the Pacific Catch restaurant, the info is here:

http://www.pacificcatch.com/index.html

Please say here is you're coming, or send me an e-mail [email protected]

I'll start: if I can talk my friend (a non-Fodorite) into coming, 2 people. If not, one.

I'm in Rockridge and I'd love to cross the Bay Bridge to meet some of the local Fodorites but I'm afraid I'll be in Provence!
I know don't feel too sorry for me
Maybe next time.

Hear, hear, Faina is the most gracious hostess in SF, I know because I am the unpaid member of the grand dame's household staff. Count me in since I'm off duty that day and allowed to party.

welltraveledbrit -- Why don't you set one up in Rockridge? I'll bring Faina after I check her social calendar!

If you have another one in Nov. (between the 10th thru the 17th) I'd be there! Have fun, all.

Oh, boy! Am I achy-breaky all over. Why do people like to travel so much? (Just kidding?)

I'm in! So far... tripping and I will be coming with the champagne.

artlover: Hi! Yes, do start a thread on the exact dates when you will be here! It's too far into the future for me to plan as yet! But do hope to see you again! If not, this is a VERY FUN crowd of Fodorites!

BTW: the switch over to the Pacific Catch OK by everyone?

If not, we can go on the GREAT RESTAURANT HUNT.

So far, nobody raised any concerns regarding this restaurant neither on Fodor's nor in e-mails.

I am in, as long as work lets me.
I will be drinking cool iced water or tea. I don't need the champagne, but I will gladly toast! To us!

Roslaire, and everybody else, there will be no champagne! This place does NOT allow outside drinks. But they have a great wine list.

Please remember to bring cash to pay your share.

Now, A PROBLEM. I sent an e-mail to that place for reservation, and this is the answer:

"Our Chestnut Street location is unable to take reservations due to our small
seating capacity. I would like to suggest coming out to Corte Madera
location for the occasion. We have a large indoor dining room and also an
outdoor patio. I can take a reservation for your party at this location."

ANY SUGGESTIONS? Any suggestions other then going to the Grand Cafe?

I have several suggestions, need to know --
1. type of food (american, french, italian, mexican, japanese, thai, chinese etc.)
2. entree not to exceed price
3. preferred location

Short of sounding like a broken record, I repeat this GTG is "Buy Your Own Drinks", it is only fair to everyone attending.
