Possible food meet to help my friend

[don_bagz]

What's up guys, I work at my friends restaurant and it's not doing very well, he took over the restaurant a few months ago knowing it was going down hill. His plans was to add Filipino food along with the Mexican food that the place originally serves. People that eat there say it is very good food. And we are hoping adding Filipino food to the menu will kinda keep the restaurant float above water.

So i talked to my friend(owner) and told him about a possible food meet and he is cool with it and he is willing to give 20% off the menu ($1 off for every $5).

So I'm posting it on here to see if anybody would be down for some Mexican/Filipino food night.

I don't get any money for bringing in people, it's just a way for me to help my friend bring in some money to the restaurant.

Feed backs would be great.
Oh by the way restaurant is in Loma Linda (near 10 and 215) interchange.

P.S. Filipino guys! We do have halo halo! :)

[s13bert]

im down to help out, when would this take place???

[don_bagz]

I'm not sure yet. Don't want it to be on same day that other food meets happen too. So we will see. Any suggestion for a day?

[Gizmo_S13]

[don_bagz]

Saturday!!! We need a meet on the weekend!

awww man... we are closed on saturdays. loma linda is an SDA (religous) city.. alot of businesses are closed on saturdays.. even their post office. lol.. its the only city in the US who gets their mail on sundays coz its closed on saturday. lol.. we are open sunday tho!

id be down for this meet

cool.. hopefully I can get enough people to have an interest in the meet.. i told him to do raffle too, but since the restaurant is broke and cant raffle anything that links to car parts, told him, "a free meal wouldnt hurt"

chips & salsa (home made) are free with meals.. :)

[Mozoby]

id be down for this if it was on a weekend.. maybe bring a couple ppl too

friday or saturday would be best

[rob22]

[21Nemesis]

Well, since Saturdays are not an option, that really only leaves you with Friday evening or Sunday afternoon or evening. Either way, if I'm available, count me in!

[don_bagz]

I'm down on a Sunday. Do they have Mexican style seafood?

umm, the only sea food we have for mexican are fish taco.. :( but we have fish soup as a filipino dish

Ballot or some sinigang?! mmmm sarap!

[usdm180sx]

Balut dinuguan and kare kare =)

[Gizmo_S13]

Just make sure your meet doesn't fall on the same day as the M&M meet but if it does who's down to mob it down there?!?!

[don_bagz]

Balut dinuguan and kare kare =)

ummm, dinuguan we dont have.. kare kare, ummm, im sure i can arrange that.

Just make sure your meet doesn't fall on the same day as the M&M meet but if it does who's down to mob it down there?!?!

yeah, i dont want it to be on same day as other meets.. so ill keep and eye out.

[Banana_Cute]

interesting.

But why mix the mexican food with filipino??

Is your friend Filipno/mexican by anychance?

It'be interesting if they mix both food together.. like say. burrito/tocino instead of carne asada..

When it comes to food....i pick filipino over anything =].

You gotta have dinuguan though. Maybe some bopis.

[Banana_Cute]

Btw. The location, is this by anychance near the walmart in colton?

[don_bagz]

Well the history is the place is originally a Mexican restaurant and it's been there for 10 years. Place wasn't doing well lately so the owner decided to sell it, then my friend(Filipino) took over. We wanted to keep the regular customers coming, so we kept the Mexican food. We also wanted to incorporate Filipino food in so in hopes the Filipino food will add on to the sales..

And yes we did do a kaldereta burrito. Haha..

[kevmeistah21]

ohhh man caldereta burrito?!? shit sounds sooo good! but my mom makes the best calderata.. sorry, you can't compete! :p

[don_bagz]

Haha.. I do agree tho. Moms cooking is always the best. Lol. But this guy isn't bad either. He was the cook sheraton hotel in Hawaii before he moved to the states.

Oh we also did Bicol express burrito. Haha. With garlic rice instead of Mexican rice. Lol

[kevmeistah21]

damn dude, i would go but that's a mission! i have class during the week and work during the weekends. I'll be in the area friday cause I'm heading up to big bear but im carpooling.. I'll see if my friends are interested.

I'll be attending LLU, so i'll be there often this summer

Oh nice. Gonna let llu put a hole in your pocket eh ? Lol. Well, hopefully the restaurant is still open. Haha! My friend only paid a year of the lease. He said he will close it after that if the restaurant won't make money.

Oh man... I'm from Cebu so I'm not sure how the original Bicol express taste like. But the one at the restaurant is pretty good. :)

We will take honest feed back tho. :)

Well, It Looks like Sunday is the best day. Ummm, we can do this sunday the 27th but the restaurant closes at 4 o'clock that day so we have to do the meet for lunch. But march 6th we are open till 8 or 9. So, if alot of people are down to do lunch meet, we can do it on Sunday the 27th. What u guys think?

Here is the address. 25596 Barton Road Loma Linda, CA. 92354

[Banana_Cute]

Is this gonna be strictly nissan? or anyone who enjoys food? Im not gonna blow this up, but i got a handful of flip friends around the area.

Im from OC now, but ill try and make it whenever you guys decide the exact date. Lunch would be nice too.

Wouldn't say strictly Nissan instead I would say absolutely no immature drivers that thinks revving like it's nismolism all over again is cool. My main point is to help bring people in, and not drive customers away coz of all revving.

[don_bagz]

How many people would be down to do a lunch meet this coming Sunday?

[s13bert]

im down for it, what time would it start at????
