I've looked up Charlies in the White Pages and the relavent returns were:

Charlies Diner
Metro Hotel 466 Brighton Rd Brighton 5048
8358 3288
Waterloo Station Hotel 138 Waterloo Corner Rd Paralowie 5108
8258 8066

Charlies Family Diner
178 Jubilee Hwy West Mt Gambier 5290
8723 1200

Am I looking up the wrong tree?? because neither of these venues are close to Gorge Rd in Newton. I don't mind driving across the city for dinner. What does everybody else think?

Other search results are:
Charlies Asia Cuisine (Mt Barker)
Charlies Club Sandwich
Charlies Shack (Adelaide)

the only all you can eat place like charlies near gorge rd is one on payneham rd near port rush rd heading back towards town. i suggest we drive up greenhill road and make are way back around and down gorge, then payneham for dinner

Sounds good

... Might be a good idea to make a booking for dinner if there's going to be more than a few of us. Do you know what the name of the restaurant is? If not, I can make my way out there sometime early next week to find out.

Can I please get an idea as to how many people are interested for dinner after the run to make the booking? Friends are welcome. Please let me know as soon as possible.

Payneham Tavern

I'll probably aim to get to Vic Park as close to 5:30 as possible because I'm going to be at Mallala all day

Oh, and The Buckingham Arms has a better all you can eat thingo, its not too far from the Payneham Tavern. Both about $20 I think, not entirely sure though, havent been to either for a year or two

So currently, the numbers for dinner are:
Adam_NAclubman x 1 (you have pm)
Astroboysoup x3
SuperMazdaKart x 2

Anybody else coming on the drive keen for dinner afterwards? I'll be making the booking tomorrow night so please let me know.

Come for the cruise first and then pick her up afterwards before dinner

If we're going to leave Vic Park around 5:30, we should be finished around 6:30. Probably make the booking around 7:00pm to be safe.

That should be about enough time for Magill - Norton Summit - Lofty - Uraidla - Lobethal - Gorge - Athelstone

No problems here.

I guess we can decide which roads to take on the day. If a 1.5 hour drive is too long for some, I'll make the booking for dinner 6:30pm. That way, Vu won't get into trouble by his lady if she decides to come. :lol:
