Had dinner at Antenellos. Antonio, the owner, is a long standing relationship I have. I am trying to gauge interest in a Ferrari Chat dinner. I'm thinking Prix fix menu that is Ferrari themed. I can get my contacts at Poltrona Frau ( the company the does your Ferrari leather) and maybe Neport beach Ferrari to attend. Please respond if you would be interested and if there are enough people I will set this up. Antonelos is in Santa Ana next to South Coast Plaza. Sent from my iPad using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Thinking about the 3rd Thursday in October? Does that change anything for anyone? Working on Ferrari of Newport being there, Poltrona Frau (manufacturers of Ferrari leather and home furniture), Rhino Films and detailing. Will have more details as this develops. Or I can keep simple and everyone just orders their own dinner off menu? This is just a way to meet each other. Sent from my iPad using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Just got word that Poltona Frau will be there. They make your Ferrari leather interiors. see this article below https://www.ferrari.com/en-GM/magazine/articles/full-leather-trim-poltrona-frau-dashboards They will have the "Cockpit" Ferrari chair at the dinner: https://www.poltronafrau.com/en/cockpit-president-poltrona Ferrari of Newport Beach should be there and talking to them about showcasing a car Rhino Films and detailing should be there to answer all your car care needs. I should have date (shooting for 3rd sat of October) and will post firmer details shortly. So far we have 14 people expressing interest. Its a social dinner even though 3 relevant businesses will be there.
I know its a long drive, but may make a nice Weekend getaway? Details are developing and you can follow here. I suggest the Ritz Carlton Laguna NIgel , Montage, or the Westin, Costa Mesa which is 1 block away if you need lodging https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/antonellos-oc-ferrari-dinner.648237/

Sounds awesome! I’m curious about Poltona Frau and whether they do any custom reupholstery for seats (looking to customize Speciale Aperta seats). In any case, thanks for arranging! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hi there. They do not do custom upholstery though them (maybe they do it through Ferrari) . But I am sure they can refer you to someone. Please call their West Los Angeles Showroom.

Is everyone expected to drive their Ferrari’s? If I come, I would rather be driving something comfortable for long distance.
It would be great if you drove your Ferrari as they will be on display in front of the restaurant, but certainly understand your concern. Feel free to join even if you do not bring your F Car. Please let me know so I can add you to the list

Menu is developed. I will post by Friday. It's insane. Chef was reading it off. All I remember was something about truffle ravioli, and the owner preparing Zabaglione tableside for all of us. Other courses were very nice. Chilean sea bass , risotto , etc. Stay tuned and I will post pricing as well. There will be a band for us and I have heard them. Some of the most beautiful female vocals I have ever heard. There will be a wine pairing option as well. President of Potrona Frau may be flying out to attend along with the already committed employees. Owner said we need to limit this to 30 people. So it's first come first served on the committed list.
