Glad I didn't eat at Spoons!! Blech! :P

A few of us were already throwing around some ideas about the next time we do a confluence. If what we were thinking about is feasible, no one will have to worry about where to eat.

IMHO, the where is not nearly as important as the WHEN!!!

What did you miss at Spoon's? Only food (calling it that is a stretch) that makes Denny's fare look like a 4-star restaurant and cockroaches that crawl up onto the table and try to take the food you're eating.

Some of us don't have a local Spoons or Ruby's or Felix's.. we are so deprived! Seems when I wasn't laughing I was eating or watching someone play a great song on a guitar thinking no one was watching....

The point being that when you are in a different neck of the woods it is nice to have access to a variety that is not locally available. Agreed that the quality of service and food is polar opposites.. it is nice to have the opportunity to not eat at Bob Evans, or Ruby Tuesdays (the list goes on)..... you get the point. Same old for you is a change of pace for others..

At this point I'd be happy with anything that resembles a home cooked meal...I swear I must have been to every restaraunt in San Bernardino county over the past 9 weeks! :?

I had a stomach ache after eating at Spoons on both days, although, as it's often stated in the field of statistics, "association does not equal causation"...
