Mysst

You betcha!

Melding

Come to Windsor Ontario. You can't beat the smell!

Seriously it's everywhere. no escape. if you run it just gets worse. Save me!

Mysst

I can't smell it from here. All I smell is hipsters

and Mexican food

Melding

Wanna trade? of course you don't. No one wants to smell detroit.

Marth

but there are no good restaurants here

Mysst

Do you restrict your eating to Soco, Marth? Cause you'd be right there.

Marth

But seriously, if we're gonna have some sort of meetup here we need to go to Scholz Garten. It's freaking fantastic.

Mysst

When Taco Express is just down the street?

Marth

I am down for breakfast tacos any time, but I had Scholz a few months ago and it was amazing.

Either would be fine but my vote is for Scholz.

Robert Khoo

Alright, so we have two Austinites. That's enough a reason for me.

I'll be downtown for most of it, but I believe i'll have access to a car, so whatevs.

GTSavvy

I'm a local Austinite who would be available and interested in food! Anything in particular you are interested in?

pooka

for dessert, go to Amy's on Guadalupe. good ice cream, and a free something or other if you correctly answer the day's trivia.

Monkeyfeet

My name is Austin. What do I get?

Harrier

Oh my stars and garters, a Khoommunity event I can actually go to.

I'm in Waco, which is less than two hours' drive north. I could probably make it down there with no trouble.

Do you have any idea what you're hankering for, Khoo? I can tell you that in Texas we do Tex-Mex and barbecue especially well.

I would hope that we do Tex-Mex well!

A boot to the head.

Also I did not know you lived in Texas, Mysst.

vermiculture

What days? I live fairly close to Austin and I'd be down for a meetup. And I might be able to bring yukira as well.

Robert Khoo

Ooh cool, looks like folks are coming out of the woodwork.

Let's say... July 15th, Friday - 7 PM ish. Location TBD... based really on suggestions etc.

Marth

There's also Kerbey Lane, Magnolia or Chuy's if we want to go for variety. But I have to admit, I haven't found the really good local stuff yet.

rhylith

I could potentially go as well if it's on the weekend

vermiculture

One time I was in Austin and I went to Magnolia Cafe and I enjoyed it.

Yukira

I get off work at 7pm but I could be up there around 8.

Lasbrook

I might be down, especially if it's downtown since it'll be easier to get to via CapMetro.

Galy

The best Tex-Mex in Austin is Maudie's.

rhylith

Ok yeah I think I'm in.

Oghulk

I'm only an hour or so drive's north and I'll be in town on thursday the 14th, so I might see about taking another little road trip the next day to meet up.

misix

I'd be down. Heard about this through Rhylith.

Robert Khoo

List updated! It is getting quite large. I wonder if dessert and drinks is more appropriate given the size.

Lost Salient

My brother lives in Austin! Soooo if you see my brother, you should hang out with him, too.

Blake T

Khoo you are only one terrible spelling error away from visiting Australia.

Mysst

Lotta choices for dessert, but if you want local flavor it's gonna mostly be out of a trailer, which is actually more feasible with a larger group

Yukira

Add me as Yukira + 1.

Robert Khoo

I'm down with whatever - trailer or not. Yukira, updated.

Renzo

I'm free that night. Count me in please!

Last time I did something like this was at some BBQ place after Mike and Jerry spoke at the Guild Hall. 5 years ago at least.

You have to do the Penis Dance for Khoo again.

It should become a tradition. Sid meets Khoo, Sid does the Dance.

Mysst

Also, Austin isn't very big and we can get anywhere in like twenty minutes by car

So there's this, the Trailer Park eatery. S'got tacos and hotdogs and a chocolate stand and other things I forget

And here's Amy's Ice Cream. You can't get a steak here.

If you want some meat with delicious sauce, County Line is the place to be. If you're still not satisfied after that, then let me direct you to my place.

Septus

I'll check on my schedule, I might be able to go.

If one wants dessert, I might suggest Dolce Vita. I believe they have very nice(and maybe expensive) liquor, but maybe not beer and wine. Also, open patio.

Marth

If there's drinks I probably can't go.
