International night with Massachusetts Motoring Club
A new group / website / forum recently formed, the Massachusetts Motoring Club - one of their goals is to have regular get-togethers (”shindigs”) to enjoy an “international night” dinner together … Margaret & I tonight attended a re-run of their first night (not sure if that makes it their second night or not!), at the Brazille restaurant in Framingham:
The food was very good, with an array of choices of salad, cooked meat and sides … highlights included the steak, pork sausage and grilled pineapple; yum yum ![]()
Also on offer, dessert (which Pete amazingly managed, after four plates of main course!) and drinks - Margaret said the Strawberry Daquiri was good …
The Mass. Motoring Club has created a Passport to accompany attendees of the international nights - the idea is to fill it with stickers collected at each night!

Let’s hope there’s many more events - the chance to enjoy great food with great MINI friends should be a great incentive!
Many thanks to Mass. Motoring Club, to Becca, Sheena, Pete, Audra, Thom, Keith (hope that covers everyone involved in organizing it!)

I think this passport idea would be good for SCMM here in SoCal. Looks like the food was fun. Kittie and I tried a Argentina restaurante here in Pasadena and it was awful.
Will Ian join or is Ian a member? I think you once told me “I don’t need no estinkin’ club” in your best Treasure of the Sierra Madre voice.
Check Twisty blog later for a funny post.

Luckily, all you have to do to “join” is post on the Massachusetts Motoring Club website

I’m glad you and Margaret enjoyed yourselves, It was a pleasure to see you. Those 4 main course plates I had were very small portions..lol.. Thanks for coming along Ian, hope to see you at another event !
