Back from sunny climes, and wondering if,as and when the next meet is? Seems to me the last one "dedicated to the Kart" was more than 2 months ago.

With Raquel parked in the garage her owner is suffering from withdrawals. I freely admit that I did not equip her with snows - she is far too much the diva to risk a blemish or bump from the snow driving novices out there),

Any ideas?

Hellbreed

I'm ready for a meet, I missed the last one, we should have it this month! Usual place D&B?

Shamblerock

Ya, I think its time to meet again. A few Friday nights ago, there was a STI meet @ D&B. It seemed to have a good atmosphere because it was at night at a bar drinking and eating etc...

Do you think people would be intersted in meeting on a friday or saturday night?

I am getting tired of D&B though. Any other suggestions that is somewhere nuetral ?

Neo

I'm up for one... It's been while since I've seen some real sports cars on the road... Even though there are 4 RX-8's on my street and all are winter driven... By women no less!

Shamble, suggest a place... I'm up for almost anything... Know of anywhere interesting?

Lates,

I'm in for another meet; try to schedule one over the next couple of weekends, as my work schedule has me working weekends starting Mar. 19 .

HELAS

O.K. since everyone wants to have another GTA meet but doesent want to orginise it, I'll step up to the plate. lets say Saturday March 6th. we could go to the usual spot, D&B or if anyone has any other ideas we'd love to here 'em and at what time works the best for everyone? Please check back in and lets finilise our next meet

Man, you guys are "chalk full of ideas" when it comes to meets.


You could always go skating downtown (free besides parking), snowboarding meet, there is clubs to hit, go out to dinner, hit up a movie, have a casino run, etc...

HELAS

Not bad ideas "myrx8bad" something to take into consideration. What would you want to do to spice things up a knotch?

MrJynx

snowboarding sounds fun.. but my damn board/gear is way to much to put in the 8

now going to the casino! that's something that would be interesting. meet around the 400 (colussus?) then take off up to rama!!


MrJynx

Casino! I think we'll lose alot of interest if we choose that venue as many don't gamble. (I do :D ). How about a dinner @ 7 PM and then see what everyone else is interested in after that. I'd be in. Watch out also for the "March Break" thing that most people may leave town for!

HELAS

O.K., now we're getting somewhere. So we could go to D&B, East Side Mario's, Casey's, Alice Fazoolie's or Sam & Pete's. (all in the same parking lot) Lets get some feedback and decide on where we're gonna meet.

Shamblerock

Helas, did I see you pulling in to the parking lot A at casino Niagara a few months back? That was me pulling out of the lot. I think you had a few people in the car with you as well.

In any event, I'd go for any of the other restaurants besides D&B (I'm getting tired of it) mentioned and then we can make an agenda for after dinner depending on who wants to go where.

Here's an idea - what about Ontario Place?

It looks like they aren't doing the Cinesphere movie festivals anymore, so maybe the lots are pretty empty during the day (on weekends.)

I haven't been there in years, and don't remember if the entrance/exit is gated...

HELAS

OK, I dont think Ontario Place has alot to do this time of year other then the show there, Does anyone have any objections to dinner at Caseys restrant in the Collosus parking lot (Jane & 400) on saturday march 6th at 7:00 pm? this is the main vibe that i am getting from most people. Then if we all want to do something afterwards, we can dicuess it. if anyone wants to dicuess the date and or time lets here it.

Shamblerock

Sounds good to me.

Shamblerock

Hip Hip Hooray!!!! Mic is back and his responses are almost back to regular form!!!

cubakid

Yippee! Mic is back. Raquel would take you home, but she is hiding from winter.

I'm so glad to see you here again!

Amur_

Aw, come on now. You've never eaten a lunch in your life.


Empty is the point - we'd have the lot to ourselves. And since it's right off the downtown... finding someplace to eat shouldn't be too tough. New location, better view.

HELAS

Now now lets keep it nice. And just to make a correction it is CASEYS restrant and not kelseys restrant. We dont want half the people at one place and the other half at the other.

FYI: the parking lot is gated. Now if there weren't any events going on at the CNE grounds then there are huge parking lots inside there that are usually wide open. Some of the backdrops in there would make for some interesting pictures.
Just not a good spot to go for a cruise after, seeing as Central Traffic (Toronto Police) is ver nearby (1/2 block), but everyone could go to medievil times after? pricey though ($60/plate).

I'm just throwing out ideas here.

Maybe we should throw out what people like first: Hobbies/interests and then try to accomadate accordingly.

Neo

Going to T.O. downtown is a thought... although like MyRxBad said, I don't know about the whole Ontario parking lot situation... Plus, it's still cold outside!! Wouldn't want to be standing around in an open area with wind's blowing!! :D

I know a great little Chinese restaurant off of Dundas and University... But parking downtown is going to be a bitch!

Any other suggestions??

Lates,

Pete

sorry again guys . Unless I get my car under the knife soon I'm going to miss the meet.

kit is being installed .

Shamblerock

Pete, its good to see that you are moving forward with the kit. MS Kit? Good luck and hope you're car will be ready in time so we can see it!

Neo's right. I also know a great little Chinese food place on Dundas and Elizabeth "Yueh Tung" . Food is great and the price is very very reasonable. Parking is a bit of a bitch though as the restaurant has a loyal following.

Anyone up for serious Pizza (Without booze as they lost their liquer license)? I know of a place called "Dante's" south of Yonge & 7. Very expensive (for Pizza)but serious Pizza, Veal Sandwiches, Pasta - Everything there is home made/family owned and in a very casual setting. A place where the portions are huge and they use top notch quality ingredients. On a saturday night, they have 30 delivery cars and deliver over 1,000 pizza's!

Amur_

The pizza place sounds tempting. You're going to ruin my very bad taste.


I don't know Yonge & 7 at all (except for one LCBO.) :D


For places near downtown, how about that box theater off the Gardiner @ Islington. It's the suicide exit if you're eastbound. Big lot, in good shape (although the short stretch of the Queensway you'll have to drive on is a disaster,) and it shouldn't be packed during the matinees. We can take over a corner without worrying about being chased off...
