Default Poll: Sharktoberfest Post-drive dining options

I have arranged a little drive, to start Sunday morning at 9AM. Post-drive, I'd like to solicit opinion/input RE: dining options. Historically we have made reservations near major interstates close to the end of the drive, to ease peoples' driving home. Alternatively, Blake's Place (right across from 928Intl) is now open Sundays and makes a mean hot pastrami sandwich..

So- weigh in on what you want to do (or not do) mid-day Sunday and I will plan accordingly.

Options:

1)- I'll make reservations for X # of people somewhere in the Claremont area.
2)- I'll make a reservation for X # of people at Blake's Place back in Anaheim
3)- People can say their goodbyes at the stop(s) along the drive and make a run for it once back to I-210.

Feedback, people, I need feedback!

Rob, I voted for Blake's but either is fine-- just not sure about the food as this "TBD" place

Rob, how long do you expect the run to be in terms of time? Thanks.

If a group was set to stop at Harris Ranch on I5 on the way back north later on...Id easily be found flying down there to eat as well.

The planned round-trip route is 106 miles, Google says 3 hours, plus whatever downtime/breaks at scenic overlook(s).

Did I kill another thread?

Even though the fest was cleared out...... I got a fudgin' ride in Rob Edward's Greg Brown Stroker! Thanks for making my poorly timed first SF a raging success. What a rocket. I hope you all enjoyed your ride.

Michael-

Glad you enjoyed it. Next time we'll try it when it's dry so we can actually use 2nd and 3rd gear to accelerate....

Yes Rob, I must say your car came out as close to perfect as I could imaging. I'm sure there are still things you want to do, but I would take it just the way it is! When you passed on the freeway, it was INTOXICATING...
