Cavallinos at the Crossroads

Back to the top - see you there, Don.

 

I expect to be there.

 

I will be there.

 

Assuming cooperative weather, I might even bring the Ferrari!

 

I will have to pass. Hosting Karen's family Christmas party at our house that day and will be busy getting ready. Have fun and happy holidays.

Weather scared me away, hope you all stayed dry!

 

We still had six that braved the weather. James is hardcore driving the Aston!!!

 

The Ferraris also have windshield wipers...

 

which I try not to use

 

It is better to test them during actual rain.

Scratches the glass less that way.

 

I thought Ferrari's melted in the rain?

 

Sorry I missed this month's breakfast...hopefully start back up in the new year. As for the venue, I like that place a lot so would vote to keep it at the Crossroads.

 

Don,
Thanks for having the breakfasts this year. Crossroads did a very nice job. I am probably the only one that the location is really good for. Maybe look for something near Las Colinas, or west side of Dallas area. I never minded the Starbucks location either.

 

Why not have a few locations and rotate them a little?

 

The Crossroads does seem to be a little far away for many of us - is it possible we could find something in either Addison or Los Colinas? Another possibility would be to go back to the Starbucks on Belt Line for a few months in the spring before the weather gets hot.

The Egg & I on Arapahoe just east of the Tollway is also a possibility - I asked them and they would be glad to have us - they have parking and a private room. The Rolls-Royce club has had breakfast there on the second Saturday each month for many years - we could set ours up for the third Saturday of the month there.

 

There is a place in Las Colinas someone told me about. Parking is not a problem, I am going to run by there next week to check it out. I am curious if we did move it to a more central location if we would have a better turn out. ( maybe some new faces from Fort Worth?)

 

I think everybody kind of got tired of it, but the best turnout (IMHO) that we have ever had for the Saturday morning coffee was that Starbucks on Belt Line just west of the Tollway.

My vote is to try the place in Las Colinas once and just see if we draw anybody from Ft. Worth...

 

I am heading that way This morning.

 

There is a Diner that Jenn and I have gone to before near Addison called the Diner of Dallas. It used to be a Norma's Cafe, but then the name changed. They have a nice large parking lot, but no separate room for a gathering.

 

Oh yeah. I know that place. Pretty good food.

 

For us westsiders I'd like to try this place out for lunch, so far I've heard nothing but good things.

I enjoyed the Starbucks meetings because you could come and go at whatever time you chose. You could stay for a few minutes, or a long time. The Crossroads was a little more structured and it made it a little tougher to be a regular. The food was awesome though.
