Blondie's
We have long had member requests for a trip out
to Blondie's in Arrowbear. I have eaten there three
times, by now, and always thought the food is
pretty good. So please join us for dinner at
Blondie's on Wednesday October 12, at 6 pm.
This will be a driving adventure as much as a dining
adventure. Take Highway 18 through Running
Springs, and past the handful of establishments
that make up Arrowbear. Go around the big rocks,
and look for Blondie's on your right. If you reach
the turnoff to Green Valley Lake, you just missed it,
so go back about 0.3 miles.
They seem inept at some aspects of running a
business. I applied for a local's card ages ago, and
it never arrived. The phone number posted all over
the Internet is disconnected, giving the impression
that they have folded. But they are actually doing
well, and answer to (909) 867-9000. None of the
map services (Google, Mapquest, Yahoo) can
show an adequate map for Blondie's. The
restaurant seems to be surviving on the strength of
good food, local reputation, and reasonable prices.
This is as far east as we have ever gone, so
members near Running Springs are expected to
turn out in force.
