Message t0rin0 P beers 102 º places 1528 º 21:03 Wed 6/27/2012 So what do you guys want to do about food at the food stops? For Beachwood and Blue Palms I’m thinking fixed menu (probably 3 items from the regular menu) and at Pizza Port I’ll probably have to call in an initial order of pizzas after we leave Tustin. Not quite sure about Taps just yet, thinking small lunch. Please weigh in with your thoughts. Friday: -Taps for lunch -Pizza Port for dinner Saturday: -Blue Palms for brunch (not normally open before lunch so it may change) -Beachwood for dinner
Message vacax 21:48 Wed 6/27/2012 No ideas on Taps. Pizza Port, it’s the last stop Friday, I think we might as well just take it easy and let everyone order as they would normally there. Blue Palms: breakfast burrito bar. This is maybe the best idea I’ve ever had. If not, well a normal brunch with regular breakfast foods for a modest price, nothing too fancy like truffled eggs or blue cheese blintzes are necessary. Not breakfast related, but what if fuego steak melts somehow took slider form... or wait what if it somehow became breakfast food... Beachwood, set menu is a good idea, bbq and a couple sides for a set price, with an advance idea of how many people want to buy it... should get us through relatively quickly on the way to the Grand Tasting.

I think you’re right, we’ll have plenty of time there. We could probably stay there 3 hours and not go over the time for the bus.

I’ll talk to Gabe and Brian about veggie options. If you’re OK with chicken that makes things easier but I suspect that we’ll have some vegetarians on the bus too.

Message t0rin0 P beers 102 º places 1528 º 11:08 Thu 6/28/2012 I suggested to Gabe the idea of a fixed price ($10-$15) and limiting the menu to 3ish options. He correctly pointed out that covers only the entre but he’d throw in a house beer as well for that price and of course make pairing suggestions. I’m thinking we’ll go that route, unless there are some better alternatives suggested. Any beer beyond that will be regular price.

Message vacax 16:55 Thu 6/28/2012 I’ll eat a catering tray of blue cheese grits or die trying

Message t0rin0 P beers 102 º places 1528 º 10:53 Fri 6/29/2012 Anyone need a reason to be on the Friday bus? AleSmith is sending a keg of brewers blend Speedway with Vietnamese coffee. Depending on how much of that you hooligans drink a growler or two may make an appearance at the grand tasting.
