Feeler: MitsuStyle Dinner Club

[Matt D.]

Last week when we were at Blue Door Pub having some burgers we started talking about other restaurants that have good food and we all had either been to places we liked that others hadn't been to, or knew about places we'd like to go to. I mentioned to Peter about possibly meeting up once a month as a group and go somewhere nice that we ourselves wouldn't normally go. Do it on a Friday or Saturday night. Doesn't have to be every month, though somewhat regularly would be ideal.

I'm looking to organize a list of people interested in this, and a list of places to dine at. Please take this seriously as it is not for flakers, we will need reservations at quite a few of these places. Expect to pay anywhere from $15 to $50 for a meal. Feel free to mention restaurants, even link to a review of the place on citypages.com or something.

[TkrPerformance]

mt fuji in maple grove

if it happens on fri's we could do it

[mlomker]

I'd be interested.

[mdost03]

I'd be down, but saturdays and sundays would only work for me. I work until 10pm m-f.

[Matt D.]

We can alternate days, doesn't always have to be one or the other. I'll update the list.

[A//// Guy]

Im down!

I think we should start with Fogo. Im sure other random people would come with if we planned a date.

[asshanson]

Never been to Fogo, want to try it out. The other restaurants on the list sound good too.

[polishmafia]

I'd be willing to go to some of these places. It would depend on if they cater to people with food allergies like me.

[Tachyon]

Fogo is good, I especially like their lamb.

For dinner, it's not too bad considering the level of service. Look to pay about $46 + $15 for wine.
