Setting up a regular meet & greet?

The East Bay crowd has a monthly lunch get-together. Do we want to do something like that?

 Hi, sublimate and I were discussing this at Dr. C's last support group. I don't have a good idea for a place to gather, though. A Seattle group meets at an Applebee's for a lunch once a month. Is there a local restaurant that folks want to gather at?

There are tons of chains in that area. I have a bunch of restaurants I go to but they are mostly "specialty" places that someone in the group may not like because they don't eat Mexican, Chinese, etc. Here are the ones I know about that are remotely reasonable.

Aqui - Cupertino (psuedo Mexican with emphasis on organic and natural) I love this place but it's a bit pricey

Armadillo Willy's - various locations - BBQ so a good place to get MEAT

Cocos - Sunnyvale & Blossom Hill - diner food, lots of variety

Plus there's another one whose name I can't remember... it's a country-style restaurant like Cocos only fresher and higher quality. I'll ask someone and get back to you guys.

A south bay meet up would be nice (I'm used to always driving 30+ mins for them).
