    Default The Official CBR NW Pre-Convention Dinner Sign-Up Thread

    The Emerald City Comic Convention is just a hair over two weeks away! This year’s pre-con get-together for NW CBRizens will be held

    Friday, March 30, 2007

    at

    The Poodle Dog Restaurant
    1522 54th Ave E
    Fife, WA
    (253) 922-6161

    from

    7 to 10 PM.

    Reservations are under my real name (that’s Kurt Mitchell, if you’re unaware).

    Whether you’re coming from the north or south, the directions are the same:
    1. From I-5, take Exit #137 (Milton-Fife).
    2. Turn right on 54th Ave E. The restaurant will be on your left.

    The Poodle Dog has been an area landmark since 1933 and was a big part of my childhood. The food is delicious and affordable (think Denny’s but with good cooking), adult beverages will be available (I was thinking of ya, howy!) and, best of all, this year we’ll have a private room so we’ll actually be able to talk to each other. The restaurant requires that groups pay a single bill so please try to make sure you have enough cash to cover your meal and drinks plus your share of the tip. As always, spouses, significant others and, well, anybody who wants to be there are more than welcome.

    It is important that I get an accurate headcount of attendees in advance, as we must have a minimum number of folks for the restaurant to waive the $50 room rental. Please post to this thread if you are going to be there. I’ll keep a running tally here.

    CONFIRMED

    Unless your heart's set on prime rib, $25 should cover dinner, beverages, your share of the tip and still leave you a buck or two.

    Clint, knock it off. What's the point, seriously?

    I'm planning on starting my drive at around 3 PM. Four hours ought to be enough time to make it from Portland to Seattle, right?

    Tacoma (Fife is just north of it) is only about three hours from Portland so you should make it with time to spare.
