I miss you guys! Plus, my Portuguese is getting real rusty and I need some practice badly. So I invite you to join me at The Coffee Table on Thursday evening, June 25th, to share food, conversation and laughts.

Tenho saudades dos meus amigos deste grupo, e estou esquesendo o portugues. Os convio a The Coffee Table a noite da terca feira pra bater papo e comer juntos.

Ate logo!

If you need help finding the place or have any questions, feel free to call me: 626-390-5676.

Correction: I have changed the date to 25th on the calendar, but I have forgotten to change it in the description. Oops... Thanks to Derrik for pointing this out to me!

Many of you might remember our lovely picnic last year. Well, isn’t it about time we have another one? And if you haven’t been there last year – trust me, it will be a memorable day and you’ll want to repeat it.

This is your opportunity to meet Portuguese speakers and learners of all levels in a lovely natural area.

The best part of all: in a place like Griffith Park, no limit on the number of attendees and/or advance reservations are necessary! So bring your friends and families – there will be room for all of us. Children of all ages are more than welcome.

Details: we’ll meet in a section called the WILSON & HARDING area/Shane's Inspiration area. But for specific directions, click here.

What you need to bring: a dish to share – Brazilian food is great, but not required – and something to sit on. To post on the message board what you are bringing will be a good idea. A hat for the sun and sunscreen are advisable.
DIRECTIONS:
- To the park coming from the south
- To the park coming from the north
Click on the link above if you want to see the map.
1) Once you enter the park after getting off the 5, continue onto Crystal Springs Dr. You'll have no choice but to turn right.
2) Continue until you come up to the Park Ranger Headquarters right after Crystal Springs Park. (That park has a baseball field)
3) Make a left hand turn and watch the signs for the "MERRY GO ROUND" on the left hand side. Follow those signs.
- While in the park
The diagram above will show you where to drive after turning left by the Park Ranger Headquarters.
1) Continue up the hill and the road will turn right going through a parking lot.
2) After going through that parking lot, continue on, go pass the merry go round (to your right) and pass the next set of parking. Go to the end where you have to turn right.
3) Continue down into the next set of parking and you can park there. If there is no room there, any parking prior to that one will be fine. But more than likely there should be enough spaces since the park doesn't get crowded till later.

If you need help with directions, feel free to call me on my cell: 626-390-5676. See you there!

Please note that both time and place of the meeting have been changed.

Coffee Table in Silverlake is a lovely place. They have a large patio in the back where we can sit and enjoy the meeting. So far, weather broadcast predicts no rain on 3/1/9! Best of all, this place is not that expensive, which is great for people who don't have a lot of money (and who does?)

I moved the meeting time up to 3 pm, because they are real crowded before that and might not have a place for our group. (They don't do reservations).

I hope to see you there!

Been wanting to try out this place for awhile but never had the chance to. I figured we can have coffee here, get something to eat. This place is located at the Americana in Glendale, so even if after awhile you don't want to stay here, we can always move it elsewhere out into the open at the Americana and continue our conversation there.

Check out the link for more details of the place.

**The actual address is 769 Americana Way, Glendale but the address doesn't come up. But the place is at the Americana located on Brand and Colorado.**

Let's have drinks at this place that was suggested by a member of ours, Andrew. You can check out their menu here.

They do have valet parking, other than that I'm unfamiliar with this venue but willing to try out their food.

Cafe Brazil again in Culver City. I am limiting the amount of people to 15 only, just to keep it more controlled and removing the "maybe" feature only because I have to call in the reservations.

Cost: $1.00

I think I'll try to get together regularly on a weekly basis for the summer, see if this works out. I go to this cafe where they serve tropical fruit, coffee and sandwiches. It's a small, intimate place, decent enough for a small group of us to get together. I figured we could help out since the cafe is dead on Saturdays, so we could at least give them some of their business.

We'll try this for one Saturday and see how this goes. Unless the turn out isn't that great, I won't continue with it but for now, assume that this will happen every Saturday at 1pm for the next few weeks unless I make changes.

The place is in a strip mall and there is free parking from what I can tell. It is a few blocks south of the Glendale Galleria and the Americana at Brand.

Because the place is small I am limiting it to 10 people. Below I am listing some things from their menu.

Espresso
Macchiato
Affogatto
Con Panna
Cappuccino
Americano
Cafe au Lait

Mocha Freeze
Vanilla Freeze
Macchiato Freeze
Iced Coffee/Tea

Fruit smoothes
Ham quesadilla
Turkey Quesadilla
Salads
Fresh fruit & juices

Smoked ham & cheese sandwich
Smokey turkey breast sandwich
Roast beef sandwich
Cuban sandwich
