    Should have made it a place where they served fish besides red meat. :eek: Or maybe it is a good place because it will be empty? -_-

    Thank you; I know they serve veggie things but I specifically said fish.

    Señor The_Yoyo, good to have you here, man. :cool:

    Have a good time, y'all!

    I'd like to hang out. I'll probably make the 3/9 meeting, since I want to make that game, too.

    Pappa's should not be difficult to find. :)

    From what place of town will you be coming to the restaurant?

    If you're going into downtown from the north side of town, the easiest way is to end up on the 45 side of downtown, exit Pierce, stay on Pierce until you get to San Jacinto.

    Coolio. Memorial Highway? :confused: I don't think we have that. It might be Memorial Drive.

    From the Galleria area, Avoid 59 South northbound at that time.

    Take either 610 North or Post Oak North to 610 then "Feeder" service road to Woodway turn right and becomes Memorial, then becomes Texas into downtown then right on Fannin, all the way to turn left on Pierce.

    or Sage to Woodway, then Woodway turns into Memorial and you're home free... like a 'boid'... then becomes Texas into downtown, right on Fannin, then take that all the way to turn left on Pierce.
