[Dixielandjazz] Orange County

[Jtnt at aol.com]

Seems like there will be a bunch of DJMLers at Orange County this coming 
weekend, including Nan & me. Any plans for a F-F?.  We'll be getting there late 
Thursday afternoon after driving over from the desert and spending the afternoon 
with a little body surfing :-)
 
And I'd like to heartily recommend one of our all time favorite places for a 
Sunday Champagne Mariachi brunch. It's Baja Willie's at Warner & Beach Blvd;  
just 6 miles up 405 to Warner and then 1.5 mi west to Beach.  The buffet is 
great and there is a separate cook for special orders like huevos rancheros. The 
champagne never stops pouring; once when we were there, I slowed down with 
the champage. The waiter walked by, picked up the full glass and, saying it was 
too warm to drink, poured it out and set down a fresh one!!  But bring your 
checkbooks; it's all of $12.95!  We'll get there around 10:30 to start with 
Bloodies and then food and listen to the band for awhile before heading back to OC 
for the noon set.  Maybe we should have the F-F there :-)
