Hey CoolShades - Thanks for dinner
« on: October 10, 2006, 09:09:51 PM »
Gary was in town this week, so we met up for dinner. We went to BC in Pasadena - the restaurant that Jerry and Mikey were at recently. We decided that it would have to be the official Ponders restaurant in Northwest L.A.

I met Gary the first time at the Vancouver Pond Partay last year. Ponders get around, and it is always great meeting fellow forum members.

Cheers,

Mike

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing?

How Cool...  The fetching one and I ate there last week just before going over the Huntington.  I meant to tell Jerry that they had replaced that nasty canvas tarp in the outdoor eating area with a very clean looking awning type of structure.  Jerry warned us that the name of the restaurant was quite misleading.....and he was right.  They have great food at a good price........

That is great that you guys got to meet again. There were so many at Maryvonne's that night, I feel I didn't get to spend enough time with anyone. Sure was a fun evening and that roast......YUM
