    I thought I would start a new thread for the monthly lunch meet and greet. We seem to be doing OK with having the lunch on the last Friday of the month which would put it as July 25th for this month.

    Any suggestions on where we should meet? For a West LA meet, I would consider the boundaries as La Cienega on the East, the Ocean on the West, Culver City to the South and Mulholland on the North (unless we hit the Blue Dog again). The location needs to have reasonable and ample parking for exotics.

    Any suggestions for a good lunch spot? So far we have had Spitfire Grill, Blue Dog & LA Spice.

    Let's try and build on this. There are a lot of Ferrari's on the Westside. Other exotics welcome as well.

    I'm happy to join, live in Santa Monica/Palisades and work in Playa but don't mind going a little east if necessary.

    OK, we have several people ok with the date, now we just need a location. I'm throwing it out there for suggestions. It should have a reasonable parking lot and be somewhere in the Westside.

    Suggestions? If nowhere new is suggested, I'd suggest back to the Spitfire Grill at ehe Santa Monica Airport.

    OK. Spitfire Grill on the South side of the Santa Monica airport is the destination. This Friday, July 25th at 12:00. I'll get there a little early to hold a table. If the weather is nice I'll get one outside.

    I'll start the list:

    Westside guys, we can do better than 3 for lunch! Let's get a few more on the list. We are trying to build on this.

    Looks like I can make it after all. Save me a seat. 328 is in for the belt service though so I'll be driving something slightly more utilitarian.

    OK. Throwing it open again for the August West LA lunch. Thinking of Friday the 22nd and the following Friday ("Normal last of the month") falls on the holiday weekend.

    Who has a suggestion of a good Westside lunch spot? Needs to have reasonable parking. Something reasonably close to the 405/10 interchange is a good idea if we every get anyone driving in to meet up. I'm still up for a drive to Dukes in Malibu but the distance seems to garner some resistance.

    Let's come up with something new and see if we can increase the turn-out.

    Afraid I can't make either of those dates but Dukes is convenient for me for next time.

    I'm a newbie on the Westside (SaMo) and would like to start joining you guys but neither the 22nd or 29th work for me. Dukes is good for me too for the future....

    I was pushing for the 22nd (this Friday) as the 29th is the Friday before the Holiday weekend and I'm not available. Can we get a group together for this Friday? Suggestions on where to meet?
