AFF Wine Lover Meet Ups - Brisbane (Master Thread)

[ALH]

How about next Wednesday 13th Sep?

One BYO I'd like to check out is Cinco Bistro.

Book Online | Cinco Bistro

Another option in the city it Otto, which recently became an AMEX partner. They offer three course shared menu with BYO for $89, available for groups of 8 or more.

BYO at OTTO - OTTO Brisbane

The food is nice at Cinco Bistro, but if it's busy, the timber floors make is too noisy. Impossible to have a conversation without shouting.

You've won me over with the Suckling Pig at Otto Ristorante

Ok all, I'm going to go out on a limb here! How does Tuesday October 17 look for everyone? Venue TBA, somewhere central and BYO.
Feel free to make BYO venue suggestions.

I think I can make that work and Otto looks good too.

I like the sound of that venue, but a mid week event on top of a few other commitments around that time is a bridge too far for me.

Anything happening here?

Can't find a date that suits everyone! Had dinner at Cinco mid week. Great food but really noisy

We'd heard that you had an accident and unable to attend dinners for the next 6 weeks, so we went out in sympathy...

Just checking. You know I don’t like to miss out on anything.

I know we are all super busy people but common it can't be that hard. I can do next week Tuesday but looks like not many can so how about the week after, Tuesday or Wednesday 24th or 25th?

 

[QF WP]

I'm probably out fir both - lead up to a 3 day trip to Perth

 

[ALH]

GPH tells me I’m dreaming. The logistics are too hard. Unless there is wheelchair access, I won’t be going anywhere for a while. I’ve had to cancel 4 flights so far

I could be cheeky and suggest a venue in Cleveland that works for me. GPH wouldn’t mind I’m sure!

We’ve just said goodbye to Katie & family after their kind visit bearing Home baking and flowers. Looks like there’ll be a few luncheons here over the coming months.

Looks good to me. Can’t wait to get back on my feet

With Xmas fast approaching and trying to tidy up before Xmas (along with trips to PER & SYD to do before then), any chance I have of attending a function is quickly disappearing.
