Has anyone scouted out a lunch stop in Paris for the Houston group to meet up with the North Texas group?  I know it is a few weeks away but I was just working on the route and wanted to put in the lunch spot to get an estimate on the Houston group's arrival time.

Silly question!  How is everybody communicating during the ride?  BT, CB, hand signals, smoke signals, homing pigeons, etc?

My brother and sister in low used to live there.  I can certainly ask them for recommendations.  Is there a general consensus as to the type?  I can say that the MX food generally sucks there.   :hurl:  Or so I have experienced.

I have eaten at Jaxx before.  It is pretty good from what I can remember.  It is right in the middle of downtown Paris (if there is such a thing)  It is also right by the square, which would have ample parking and shaded hang out space for the amount of bikes we will have.

No takers here huh.  I guess this is a fairly quiet bunch on the road.

Talked to my friend in Paris and asked  him about places to eat.
Said if want a good burger for sure go to Jaxx.
Although if want a wider menu go to 
http://magelsgrill.com/
Its on the loop and easy off and easy on.

Here is a GPX of a route for the Houston group.  This one has a stop at Magel's Grill in Paris which is my vote for the lunch/meet-up.  I am also good with Jaxx's as well.  It looks like it is just over 4 hours from Houston to Paris so an 11:30-12:00 meeting time would be great.

Here is the file:
