I’m interested. I like some Dim Sum. ---

There’s also the Pasadena [Yard House](http://www.yardhouse.com/default.aspx) too…and Brea, and Rancho Cucamonga (ok…I’m being a little selfish there)… ---

Pasadena or Brea would work for me. RC is getting a bit out there. ---

I can probably do Pasadena depending on when. ---

Pasadena sounds OK for me also, as long as it’s near the Gold Line. ---

So far it seems like the Pasadena Yardhouse is the most popular. I originally wanted to go to the Costa Mesa location but a Friday night Pasadena Dopefest would be extremely convenient for me. Does Pasadena sound good for everyone? Who wont be able to make it there because of the location? ---

Pasedena works. ---

The traffic on a Friday will be a whole lot worse. I’d vote for a weekend. ---

Pasadena sounds great to me…love the 15 and 210 freeways. No July 7th for me though, even though that would be really soon anyways. ---

Pasadena looks like the winner. Now the question is when. I can’t go on the 7th or 21st. I am clear on the 14th and the 28th, and any Sunday. How about the rest of you? ---

I can’t commit to a date before the end of the month due to some open-ended work-related travel, but the only dates I can’t make for certain are the 14/15th. Hopefully, whatever you guys pick will end up working.
