Anyone up for lunch in Madrid on Friday, June 2? Let's start planning now. As a teaser, I'll be bringing along someone special (unless she cancels, saying "something suddenly came up" i.e. Marsha Brady. MARSHA MARSHA MARSHA! (USA pop-culture joke) hehehe..)

Where shall we go? Someplace new to our "Lunch Bunch", preferably. We have more than 1-week to plan. Message board member Mercedes always seems to have GREAT ideas. Let's try to make it someplace Spanish, either with a Menú del Dia or not but affordable.

Can't wait to see some of you again and to meet new people as well.

I do fancy coming along for one of these "lunch bunch" meetings but so far have been unlucky with the dates, and again with this one

If by any chance not enough can make this date I can the Friday after and will continue to watch for future dates. Have fun and a glass of wine for me.

Boy I'd love to join you guys, but the lunchtime slot will never work for me, especially during the school year...how about a dinner-bunch one time...or, now that the warm weather has arrived, a nice evening event...

Hey MM, I wish I were there to join in next week. But I will be there from 23rd June to end of July with my daughter and hubby. Hope you have another gathering in July!!!!

Well i´d be up to it, butit seems everyone else is busy !! I must be living a life of leisure !! If not this time I´ll certainly do other dates .
I´ll try and keep an eye on the message board .

Any ideas as to where we should lunch this time? Mercedes is always great with suggestions. We hope to be there at 1:45pm at the latest so as to avoid the crowds.

One place i´m desperate to try is " La Paella de la Reina " on c/Reina 39 . I´ve looked at the website ; www.lapaelladelareina.com but can´t get a real idea on the price . it opens at 13:00 and i´ve seen some great reviews . It may be a bit expensive for some , so i´ll check alternatives . Hope you´re all enjoying the weather !

Sign me up as well.

For everyone else, Chris and I would be glad to plan something else on a Saturday some time, just let me know dates that work for everyone

Mercedes, do you know of any other restaurants in Chueca which might be worth trying?

Saludos, MadridMan

I wish I could come but I am back in FL roasting to death in the heat... I wont be back until July and then probably not until Xmas as I am due to have a baby in Sept and cant travel after July and will need time to get a passport for the baby so probably wont be back in Madrid until Dec. Hope you guys have fun - plan something in July and I will be there!
