If you're going to go all the way over to Max Mex, there are a few
other places in the same area you might want to consider.  There's a
good brick-oven pizza place at 36th and Chestnut we've gone to after
phl.pm meetings a few times.  It's quiet, has a full bar, and has been
able to accommodate 10-15 of us without too much difficulty.  Sorry,
it's fairly new so I forget the name.

And then across the street from there is Shula's 2.  They specialize
in steaks but they've also got burgers, salads, etc.  Also lots and
lots of tv's which will be showing whatever sporting event happens to
be on that night.  It's a little on the noisy side, but they do have a
lot of seating and could handle whatever crowd showed up.

Further west is Abner's cheesesteaks at 38th and Chestnut, and
Cavanaugh's at 39th and Chestnut.  Cavanaugh's has decent bar food and
also has a great beer selection.

I seem to recall driving by a nice-looking new pub at around 43rd and
Walnut last week.  Anyone know if it's any good?
