The NSXCA- Sacramento Chapter invites the Bay and East Bay area members and enthusiasts for joint gathering over dinner at The Dead Fish. http://www.thedeadfish.com/
This is not being promoted or advertised as a club meeting but more of a social get together where the spouses/SOs should also enjoy the outing with perhaps a scenic drive or view.
The last joint gathering was organized by Lito at The Duck Restaurant in Lafayette, and we had 5 members from the East Bay that joined us; three were new and very eager to be part of such functions. Later that evening, Keith and Regina graciously hosted the group at their home showcasing the extensive NSX memorabilia. Here is the thread that started it. From all the feedback that we received, it was a great social gathering.

I just finished talking to the manager of The Dead Fish Restaurant in Martinez (ok, Crockett for those who want to be precise).
The following dates are available as of now; he is holding them for us as a party of 30 but we need to confirm within a few days max:
Saturday 3:30 pm -6:30 PM (or after 9:00 PM)
11/18
11/25
Sunday dinner pretty much anytime we want; 5:00 or 6:00 PM?
11/19
11/26
Both days include indoor reservations but there is no room fee. If weather allows, we can sit outside in the patio but seating is limited to 4 or 6 per their concrete tables, with one table accommodating 8.
Large group menu is on their web and totals to $35 including tax and tip. If you opt for lunch it will be $20 but I didn't ask for lunch availability.
Parking is first come first served and they do have a dirt overflow across the street but the manager made clear they take no responsibility. Sundays will be less crowded but Saturdays will have more light and since it will be in the afternoon, should work as well.
Let me know ASAP. To avoid the "I am interested ....." and then the no shows, we will ask for a non-refundable $25 deposit as we have been down this road way too many times.
