I wanna do a small BBQ this weekend since the weather is gonna be nice.
Any suggestions?
Mainly looking for a place that has decent seating and parking.
Anywhere from Seattle to Tacoma works for me.

There's a place called Carkeek Park near the Northgate Mall. That's the place I brought up when we were discussing the meeting point for our first M3 meet back in February. It's got a decent parking space, a very nice view of the Puget Sound and BBQ facilities. If you're interested, please PM me and I'll send you directions. :thumbsup:

I am participating in the BMW CCA Spring Rally Saturday. You coming too? ;)

Dai, are there ample benchs/tables?
Also, does it get pretty crowded there on the weekends?

If you could, send me the directions.

Thanks :thumbsup:

Lake Sammamish State Park is also very nice. Plenty of parking and a view of the lake. It is just off I-90.

Or New Castle park on Lake Washington.

This is the direction from N. Northgate Way to Carkeek Park. N. Northgate Way is the street you turn left onto as you get off the Northgate Way exit of I-5 North (about 4 miles north of downtown Seattle).

There are quite a few long tables and benches. It can get crowded depending upon the weather.
