Between Extreme Bean and Gold Bar, I think I like Gold Bar better. The parking is perfect, the hot chocolate is better, the cookies are better, it's less crowded, and the girl behind the counter seemed to have a thing for Ryan.

I'm down for the Gold Bar then.  Damn... am I really that oblivious?

See ya at Donkey Punch Sally's.   

boogers are sticky 

Looks like the rain will have come and gone by Thursday evening....that bodes well for spinning around on Il Mostro....

Viva la Monstro!

Something like that....

So are we solid on Gold Bar afterwards?

Me and hot chocolate --> 

Couldn't make it. Work got in the way....

....it was raining anyway.

Donkey Punch's had some okay french toast and  .

Cruised by Gold Bar around 9 and no one was there.   

Cool air makes 620's wheelie.   

Has the group ever met at Papago Brewing over on McDowell/Scottsdale?

I discovered their Papago Orange Blossom at Deluxe Burger a few weeks ago and finally went to the brewery last night.   That is some good beer if you like Hef.    

Ted's Hotdogs would also be a great eating place. I just get re-acquainted with that place after many years of "forgot about it".

Thanks for the idea, however, there is nothing for me to eat at Ted's so I will never organize a meetup there. 

I'm trying to find info about  a  weekly Thursday night car show (like Pavillions, but smaller) in Glendale(?)
Dietrich mentioned it, but we don't know details... Anyone have knowledge of this?

Brewing companies have surprisingly good food. My wife and I used to frequent the San Tan Brewery in downtown Chandler when we used to live near there. So, I think Papago Brewing sounds very promising.

This week, however, I have a Scout leader meeting (called Round Table) at 7:00pm, so I'll catch up with you guys at the coffee shop (weather permitting).

Gold Bar around 9:00pm?

Sounds good - but no promises.
If I can find this car show, prolly no after cafe-ing.
I'll post more info/details hopefully by tomorrow.

Have a good Scout meeting!

Although this is true, Papago isn't much for food. Great beer but crap food.
