Das Waldcafe is a landmark for German food on the peninsula. I have never been there, but have known people that swear by the place. I was up that way earlier this week and thank God I was in the F250. Adam is right, the roads are gonna be nice...one day. But that ain't now! I think this is definitely one we should keep on the agenda. But since we were on Hampton last month, maybe we should head over to the south side for Octobers dinner. Check out these two reviews of the place: http://chefmoz.org/United_States/VA/Newport_News/Das_Waldcafe954313320.htmlhttp://www.virginia.org/site/description.asp?attrID=15721Ideas........ |

I'm ready for some sauerbraten (sp?), roads be damned! If it's almost as good as the Bier Garden's sauerbraten then I'll be happy!

Update... scratch Oct. 16th as an option; my bro and I are going to the KISS concert. Sauerbraten is only available on Sundays, so we can always opt for Oct. 18th as well. Make it an early afternoon event. And, yes, good bier variety.  |

But since we were on Hampton last month, maybe we should head over to the south side for Octobers dinner. Depending on what folks are in the mood for... ability to play musical-chairs, decent food, place to admire vehicles parked closely together... I'm up for either side of the water, but would prefer the Southside as it makes it easier if I have to work a 12hr shift on the day we gather. Ideas........ Buffets have been mentioned in the past, there are several that would have great parking for parking close together. Other thoughts would be Grate Steak in Norfolk on Military Hwy. (tho I'm not sure how big a group we could get in there). Joe's Crab Shack in Chesapeake... Heck, I'd even opt for Jason's Deli in Pembroke Mall if I can just manage to make another gather! |

Buffets are fine but I vote against the Grate Steak. I've gone there a few times and have tried cooking my own (NOT why I go out to eat BTW) and having them cook it. Either way it seemed mediocre at best to me each time.

The Bier Garden has sauerbraten every day. LOL Once again, I can't make any plans to join up yet. Still don't know what the plan is with work, visiting the girlfriend, etc. If I'm free I'll be sure to join anyone for some German food. I love the stuff. Might have to do with growing up in North Dakota's German country. LOL

Hey, I'm always up for trying a new German restaurant. If you all want to do Bier Garden, it's fine by me. I can go to Das Waldcafe anytime.  |

I agree with Dale. We need to try to continually move the monthly dinner around the area in order to make it easier for members from all over the Hampton Roads area to attend one from time to time. Bier Garden seems to be a popular site from the post's that I have seen so far. I have never been there, so I vote for that.

This almost sounds too official for us, so I'll second the motion. Wait, that almost sounds like one of those stuffy clubs. I can feel the fun escaping us now. How about if I just agree ain't ever been either, it's about new places right? |

I've always wanted to try Abbey Road!! But I'm up for whatever everyone else wants to do. Timing tends to be more of an issue for me as I have a very odd work schedule, but I should be able to meet up after I get off, depending on where we meet. |

I'm all for Bier Garden for this month. Maybe next month we can do the Abbey Road one. Unless it has something to do with the Beatles... If it does, I'll sit that one out!
*Edit*
I just looked at their website. I'll definitely sit that one out. I can't stand the Beatles...
