I to do not know if I can make to CA. next year but I hoping to make to15. But I do like the idea of just meeting in an area for a get together. Does it have to be at lunch. Why not a cocktail hour in the evening.

Their price was under $10 and i got a senior discount for both my children too. their offering was extremely varied and you could get a steak or sea food cooked to your specifications as well as the usual offerings of salads, deserts and such. they did not push you to leave so we were able to visit and just kept going back for more offerings for 2 hours. don't know if there is one available but highly recommend it.
