Greetings! You are invited to attend the upcoming FCA/DFW Fine Dining event on May 27, 2006. Details are as follows: Rafain Brazilian Churrascaria 18010 Dallas Pkwy(on the East side just South of George Bush) Dallas, TX 75287 Rafain is a new restaurant similar in format to the Brazilian steakhouse (Boi No Braza) we ate at last year for Fine Dining - we had a record turnout! Dinner includes: SALAD BUFFET: Approximately 48 items, from cheeses, olives and vegetables to green and other salads. Seven hot dishes such as: salmon, codfish, large shrimp, sautéed vegetables, rice and beans. Mashed potatoes and fried bananas are also served with the meats. MEATS: Sixteen cuts of meat make up the rodizio service, where Gauchos Brazilian cowboys continuously circulate and serve at the table to the guests satisfaction. Some of the delicious cuts are filet mignon, the Brazilian specialty picanha (top sirloin), flank steak, beef ribs, rack and leg of lamb, sausage, and chicken breast. We also serve pork loin and pork ribs. DESSERT BUFFET: A variety of over twenty delicious homemade desserts complement our service: from cakes, pies, fresh fruit compotes, Brazilian flan, mousses and ice cream. They feature a full Bar and an extensive wine list with wines from various regions of the world. Our price for this event is $41.90 for everything (not including taxes and 20% gratuity). Drinks are extra. Deadline to RSVP by EOD Wednesday, May 24th. Please feel free to PM me with any questions. Hope to see you there! Frances
Definitely want to be there..... might be somewhere hotter and drier than TX that weekend. Will know for sure in a couple weeks
That's Memorial Day weekend, Karen and I are off to Florida to visit family. We'll have to miss this one.
Life's rough, eh? Just kidding. Have fun and enjoy the race!! *edit* Oh yea....um, I don't know if I'll be able to make this. Depends on job situation....and date situation. Mostly on job, though.
Sorry to steal your thunder Frances, but what about having one dinner in the Tarrant County area? Just some ideas, keep in mind Ft. Worth does offer some kulture. www.bonnellsrestaurant.com www.michaelscuisine.com www.ruffinosfinedining.com More ideas to come.
Actually this topic has been in discussion several times....I plan on scheduling one of the 5/6 dinners each year towards the Ft. Worth area/mid-cities. Fo course, the dinners in Dallas also range from the Far North to the South. The next dinner is planned to be located towards the west. Feel free to pm directly with the rest of your suggestions. Tillman will be cleaning up this thread and starting over to make sure everyone is clear of the date, attendees, etc. for this fine dining event since it got changed, discussed at the first friday lunch to change back, etc.
Just to make sure everyone knows: Date is May 27, 2006 Attendees so far: Frances Jonathan Peck + Amy Don + Carolyn Jano + 1 Tillman Maybes: Joshua Mark John
Even if you don't have your car, please join us! Car ownership is not a pre-requisite for this event. Good food and fun are.
Thank you.....But after a month of ownership, and no possession, I'll jump off of a bridge if I am around these cars
Count Patty and me in for another fine night! I assume the parking will be better than Javier's. The location is great and the restaurant looks interesting and fun. Thanks for your excellent efforts.
However, you might get some "therapy" spins around the block in order to help you hold out until yours arrives.
The parking is so good that I'll even let you have TWO parking spaces! The parking lot is huge - so huge that I didn't even need to reserve parking for us. We will all be able to park together. List Update: Frances (2) Jonathan (2) Don (2) Jano (2) Tillman Jimmy (2) David S. (2) Maybes: Joshua Mark John

Frances, move Carolyn and I to the maybe list. That is memorial day weekend and We have to be out of town 1 day. Unfortunately it looks like Saturday is the day. I will know for certain in about a week.
I would love to come to the churascaria fine dining dinner, and my Brazilian girlfriend would especially enjoy it. However I have a pending ride at the SCCA race at College Station that weekend. What would be the latest date I could RSVP for the event? Thank you Michael Johnson,
