I would like to bring back a very much missed tradition.....a monthly MINI evening out. Here's the scoop: I will post a poll for dates in the upcoming month a couple weeks in advance and the restaurant info. I will keep it moderately priced and I will also try to make sure that there are coupons available in the Entertainment Guide so we can all save some money. And the area will also change from month to month (VA Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, etc.). The time will be somewhere in the range of 5:30 - 6:30 based on availability. *If you have suggestions of a restaurant you'd like to try, pm me and we can go there in an upcoming month. The restaurant for February will be: Coyote Cafe & Cantina972-A Laskin Road Virginia Beach, VA 23451 Time: 6:00 pm Their menu is here: Discount available in Entertainment Guide: Buy One Entree, Get One Entree Free Your responsibility: Vote for a date & majority wins. Post if you want to attend and how many in your party. If your plans change, and you decide that you are not coming please let me know. Attendees: 30Neal, Angela, Andria Steve & Elaine Terry, Wendy & Allyson Roy & Lelane Forrest & daughter Ramona Steve & Colleen Adam Jeff Don & Steph Erica + 1 Laurie + 1 Greg & Rachel Karen David & Kathy Sean & Heather

Here's a link to Restaurant.com 50% - 70% off certificates Never tried it, but thought it might help in affordable decisions.  I just plugged in 23669 zipcode for curiosity sake thinking of a midpoint projection point.  Angela you are the Bomb for bringing the monthly dinners back to life.

Yes, this has to be brought back! Though I never attended before. I've had a blast every time I've had dinner with the group. Y'all are a blast! You name the date, if I'm here, I'll be there!
If you're a newbie I highly suggest you make one of the dinners, you'll feel like one of the family in no time!

One small note on Restaurant.com certificates....only one certificate per group....not per check, regardless if the group sits at different table. Just so everyone knows.  And no problem on breathing life back into the monthly dinners!  It's my pleasure.

This is a great idea Angela. As I said in the other thread, I've been stuck in a rut food-wise and I'm itching to try new stuff.

I'm with Jeff. New food is always good.
I voted for the 21st. I'm thinking about heading down to Helen GA for the Helenblitz event. Pretty uncertain at the moment, but ya never know.

This sounds like a great way to try different restaurants for us. We're in for the 21st.

Coyote Cafe is a good choice. Being only a few blocks from my office, we lunch there often. You guys will love it ... newly renovated interior providing a nice atmosphere, a great bar with built-in ice rail to keep the drinks chilled, interesting southwestern cuisine, and ample parking for plenty of tire kicking. If this takes place on the 21st, I'll have to miss it, seeing as I'll be in Kissimmee Florida with over a hunderd other Mini's and MINI's at Spring Thing 14. If the date gets moved however, I'll be there.

Please post final date on the calendar. It is hard to keep up with all the posts.
