Our Sixth Year of Gatherings was in progress here.
See our Seventh Year here: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=22460
Our LEAF group has become an extended family, with some evolving
with the times, and now arriving in other EVs, including Rav4EV, Tesla S,
BMW i3, and occasionally an iMev or Coda.
As with any good family, we welcome and enjoy this "growing up",
since it enriches the group, and provides us all with a better
perspective of the future.
So, the LEAF title for the Gathering evolves to "LEAF & EV"
until we think of something better.
Join us for a Saturday morning breakfast buffet at Hometown Buffet,
or some other location (see below), or for some other special event.
Nominally, we Gather from about 8:00 until about 11:00 AM, and some will arrive
at about 8:00 and some may stay later, if there is enough interest. Some come
for just a while, but have to leave early because they have a "real" life.
I usually try to arrive by 8:00, and I am usually among the last to leave.
HTB opens for Breakfast at 8:00, and transitions to their Lunch menu at about 11:00.
Usually, we LEAF/EV-Gather on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month,
but that is often modified to fit the holidays or other events in the month.
Occasionally we have Local Clusters for special events (**) at different locations.
NOTE: The Hometown Buffet in Cerritos is no more, new locations under discussion.
Testing new location at the Golden Corral in the City of Industry (see address below).

------------ Locations -------------
Golden Corral in City of Industry
17635 Castleton St
City of Industry, CA 91748
Phone: (626) 839-8188
This GC is located just South of the 60 freeway, 4 miles West of the 57 freeway,
about half way between the S. Azusa Ave exit on the West and the Fullerton Rd
exit on the East. They open at 7:30 for breakfast on Saturday.
From south Orange County, go North on I-5, then North on 57,
and then about 4 miles West on the 60 freeway.
Hometown Buffet on 17th in Santa Ana:
Located just 2 blocks East of I-5 on 17th street in Santa Ana
1008 EAST 17TH STREET
SANTA ANA, CA 92701
Phone: (714) 541-3020
Their "breakfast" hours are from 8:00 until 11:00 (when "lunch" begins").
I usually plan to arrive about 8:00, and stay until at least 11:00.
Hometown Buffet in Cerritos:
About 0.2 miles east of the 605 freeway. Use the "South Street" exit about a mile south
of the 91 freeway, going east to 11471 South Street. The HTB is north of South Street,
"hidden" behind other buildings in the shopping center.
Cerritos Nissan:
18707 Studebaker Road, just west of 605. Take the first exit south of 91 (South St),
and go west one short block, turning right (north) onto Studebaker Road.
About 0.2 miles north, turn left onto Auto Square Dr. and then left again into Cerritos Nissan.
They have three L2 charging stations, but the two in front are often in use.
They have one QC machine that requires activation by an NRG/eVgo card ($$).
After hours, they typically block the entrances to the lot with "blocker" cars.
But, at least when I asked nicely, they were friendly, and helpful.
So, basically charging is only available during business hours.
