I'm blushing here...thank you caitlinb! You SF crew are so friendly and gregarious. It's just so cool!

My SF trip is getting *a bit* complicated (conflict at work that I'm trying to find a solution for), which I'll explain more tomorrow after I wash the eight hours road trip from my body (just returned home from a long holiday weekend). Anyway, I'll be in SF for two family member's participation in the 26K marathon for "Team in Training". So I hope (hope hope hope) to be in your 'hood from October 21 - 24, 2005...so that Saturday evening should work well (no calendar at my disposal right now, but I believe that Saturday is October 22nd). Later in the evening is better for me - 8 o'clock onwards - as I do have a bit of family to visit with first.

...and unfortunately, I will miss specklet due to conflicting dates. Have fun at that one, guys! I'll check-in tomorrow...

I vote for Bob's Doughnuts on Polk. 1 a.m. is when the buttermilk bars come out hot. Name the night.

Oddly enough, this Kansan will be in San Francisco starting Wednesday...hmmm.

I vote 9th & Hennepin.

You mean where the doughnuts have names that sound like prostitutes? That would be Bob's.

Well, the pretty-lady count is unknown at this point, but Saturday night it is, my lovelies. Mark your calendars for Oct 22nd, and stay tuned for details. Squirrel and I will be having fresh donuts on Sunday at 1 AM, of course, but we'll figure something out for the earlybird-special crowd, too!

Ooooh, I'd love to catch up if the gang is really planning to be out and about after midnight. No rest for the wicked on a Saturday, 'mongst us restaurant folk, you know.

Also, please check the MeCha link above, if you'd like to join us for Specklet's visit as we've finally nailed down the details.

Actually a reasonable suggestion in the right area might be Cafe Royal.
