Edmonton Foodie Meetup 2

Table of contents
No headers

Who: Local food bloggers and any interested foodies!

Where: Dawson Park for a potluck (Environment Canada better not let me down! It lists the chance of showers at 40%). Please bring utensils, a plate, and a drink with you! I thought about bringing some for the group, but we can be more environmentally-friendly this way because acedemic essays and independent custom research papers show that disposable, plastic utensils and paper plates are very detrimental to our environment and can take decades to decompose under natural conditions. :)

When: June 26, 2009 at 6:30pm

Why: to put a face to a blog, and to talk all about food!

If you're planning to attend, add your name to the list below so we can expect you!

I'm good for whenever. I think an outdoor pot luck would be a grand idea, if we can manage some nice weather that is. If not, I always find bigger groups have success at Asian restaurants...so that might be an option. Chris.

Maybe we can have the best of both worlds then, and plan for a picnic, but have a back-up reservation? We can make the final decision the day before, after consulting the weather forecast.

I was thinking that (as long as we're looking at a strictly over-18 crowd) maybe a lounge-type place would be a good option, especially as a bad-weather backup. There's less to worry about with reservations, and we might have less trouble moving around a table for chatting. There are quite a few places that would serve food (I like suede's cocktails, and I've heard their food is good, for example).

The 24th or 25th work for me, and maybe the 26th later in the evening. I like the idea of a potluck, especially because I'm on this crazy cleanse diet and I can hardly eat a thing.And if would be nice to hang out outside if possible for sure.

So, question - since it looks like it's going to be a potluck, is this going to be every man/woman for him/herself in terms of what to bring, or are you going to assign stuff?? And also - which *part* of Dawson Park are we going to meet at?? And can I bring my hubby/kid?? :) (I am, of course, assuming good weather). edited 06:20, 13 Jun 2009

Sure you can bring your husband and child (assuming it's not at Suede!). I'm in favour of just bringing whatever you want (I don't want to limit anyone's creativity, particularly in this culinary group!), as it usually ends up working out anyway. But I'm open to other opinions!

I know. I've been a tad antisocial. But meeting some new nice folks to chat food and eat sounds about right up my alley, so I'm in. Free-for-all-potluck with this group is genius btw - no other way to go imo. Look forward to it!

Please take a lot of photos as I will be missing this! It sounds like a blast and I sure hope the weather works for a potluck. What a way to share. I am eager to hear about the sharing regarding the food photographs, too. I started my blog last August, but think many of you have been doing this for a few years. Is it possible for you, Grace, to take a list of the bloggers and their blogs, and do one of your interviews with each over time... I would, but am not there! I would love a list of who is doing what blog and when they started, how it's going, etc. Thank you for organizing this. Valerie I am not sure why I cannot register with my blog like most of you? Oh well. :) edited 02:58, 24 Jun 2009

My partner in crime for our blog is away, but I'm up for Friday night and meeting new fellow bloggers! We aren't a food blog per se, but we do try to blog about food every other posts. I'm going to try to make it with hubby - will know my schedule better by Thursday. Hope to see you guys! -Carly

Hi there, if we go to the park tonight, does anyone know where exactly we will all gather? :- )
Posted 17:56, 26 Jun 2009
I'm assuming we'll be gathering near the parking lot, so we don't have to lug lots of pots and eating stuff too far - at least, that makes the most sense ...
Posted 21:12, 26 Jun 2009
There's a sheltered area with bathrooms, and tables underneath. I can't remember how close it is to the parking lot, but hopefully it is not too far...See you all there!
Posted 22:17, 26 Jun 2009
So I got completely lost and couldn't find any of you. :(
