We went to one dimsum restaurant in Irvine which was really good. I'm not positive on the name but I'm pretty sure it's this one.

Irvine China Garden
14825 Jeffrey Rd
Irvine, CA 92618-0404
Phone: (949) 653-9988

Maybe other people have been there and have an opinion.
Since no one has really stated a preference for any particular Sunday, lets make it the Sunday May 30th as I originally posted. Hopefully most of you will be in town.

Parking seems to be a concern on everyone's mind (with good reason). Jim, does the Irvine China Garden have decent parking on Sundays?

Alas it would be hard to find good parking anywhere on a sunday for dimsum. Maybe we can get some early birds to cordon off an area with the permission of owners for a meet with a specific reservation time.

I just got off the phone with the Irvine China Garden and the guy started laughing when I mentioned reserving parking spots, lol. He said the best time to come with a group our size would be around 11am.

Another option would be to meet up somewhere and all drive over together. We could meet up in the old IKEA parking lot at the Tustin Marketplace and then caravan down the 5 a couple miles to our destination. This way we know who all is going and can arrive at the same time. It will also give us a chance to shoot the breeze in the parking lot with our cars for a bit. Meet at 10:20, leave at 10:40, arrive at the restaurant by 10:50 and find parking.

Does that sound reasonable?

Sounds good to me.

I'll probably be in crunch mode at work that weekend so it will be a nice morning distraction before heading to the office.

Will look forward to meeting new faces.
