Dinner Saturday night

Post by Elm Creek Smith »

Saturday after the rides end, and people meet up at Magoo'c in the Fontana shopping center, there are quite a few dinner options in the vicinity. Magoo's has food, but there are other restaurants in the shopping center, including a Hideaway Pizza, a Chinese buffet, and a Mexican place. One mile south is a Jason's Deli, TGI Friday's, Steak'n'Shake, Hooters, Joe's Crab Shack, and more. Another mile south and east for the next mile is restaurant row. There is another option right across Memorial to the east of the Fontana on 49th Street, a place called The Flying Roll Restaurant. Good food served family style and in quantities that will make you sleep through the movies at the Admiral Twin Drive-In. My wife and I ate there tonight for about $25.00. Oh, yeah, they throw the rolls across the dining room to the diners! Fun!

Thanks for posting the pics, James.

It was great meeting everyone, and I'm looking forward to next year for Quadrophenia! Eventually, we'll get to Arrowsmith and "Scoot This Way!"

Maybe next year I can get up to KC for the rally there!

Scoot on!
