Oh, is that why the earth has gone so flat

I have no idea what is out there.

But I'd like to suggest something inexpensive-mid price range, casual. I'd suggest dim sum but I don't think that would work for iSm.

Hey, guys, I'll come up with options and details by tomorrow morning - I'm in the midst of a big writing gig today so I can't until that's done.

Okeydokey.

Pasadena restaurants which may be of interest, considering dietary (no peanuts, vegetarian necessary) and monetary restrictions...

Yujean Kang's Gourmet Chinese
Has dumplings and seafood dim sum, among other chinese chow. Yelp reviews on the positive side. Lunch reasonably priced.

La Luna Negra
Spanish tapas and flamenco dancers. Yelp reviews on the positive side. Might be better for post-movie cocktails and nibbles? I can't find the hours open.

Azeen's Afghani Restaurant
Affordable, well-reviewed on Yelp. Unusual, for those wishing to try something new.

Akbar Cuisine of India
Mild-to-positive reviews on Yelp, but it's currently both Tom's and my favorite Indian food in the LA area.

Maria's Italian Kitchen
Reasonably-priced Italian (there are several other locations in LA - we've been to the one on Pico and we like it.) Better for those who aren't feeling adventurous? There's also the well-reviewed (website-less) Gale's.

Crepevine Bistro
Mostly not crepes, as I understand it, but they are available. Reasonably-priced quasi-French food, some vegetarian stuff available. The only less-positive reviews on Yelp were confused about the lack of crepe varieties.

Might I suggest NeoMeze for possible post-cocktails-or-non-cocktails? A Yelp reviewer says the restauarant is not good for groups, and unless their online res system is buggy it's all booked. But otherwise, seems swanktacular for lounging.

TICKETS...

Please note, they have switched the screening to the One Colorado in Pasadena. (It's right in Old Town, I like it.)

Tickets can be purchased here.

We are looking at the 4PM live action, and the 7PM animated on Saturday, February 16.

I vote dim sum.

LSPoorEeyorick · 02-13-2008, 02:45 PM

Just making sure you know - it's just one offered appetizer - it's seafood dim sum. (It was the only dim sum I could find referenced in Pasadena.)
