Pharos has tasked me with trying to organize something for WP's 10th birthday in the Los Angeles area.

Any suggestions?

My first thought is Philippe's in downtown, as that was one of the suggestions for the canceled-due-to-apathy meetup in October, but according to their web page http://www.philippes.com/ the private rooms are only available on off-peak hours, and Saturday night counts as peak (I called to confirm). In fact, being Saturday night it may difficult to get any place.

I'm thinking it's best to get some place that's conveniently located, preferably accessible by public transit as well. LA is always difficult to plan for because people are so spread out...
