Australian Frequent wine drinkers eoFy dinner - Melbourne, 23 June 2018

[PushBack]

Great idea, planning to come with PushBack.

Sorry, Should have said Planning to come with Waypoint.

 

[penegal]

I may be able to make it but unhappily I am currently in a slightly injured state (metacarpal fractures) from my most recent trip; will see how I am feeling later in the week.

Ouch, get better soon!
I have listed you as maybe.

I have another dinner event in the city on the same night but will pop by after. Going by past events, I suspect the party will still be going strong.

Sorry, Should have said Planning to come with Waypoint.

I worked that out

There is enough of a sort of quorum, so I have booked for you guys. Poor @boomy may be in for a small or large dinner.

Could the maybes please try to let us know ASAP, so we can give an accurate number to the restaurant. BC/TV - feel free to text me on the mobile once you know.

Will do @penegal

 

[tuapekastar]

Bronze for me...here in Las Vegas ATM.

 

[whughes3]

Whatever, count me in: from memory they have things on the menu that can be eaten with one-and-a-bit hands, Plus I have unearthed an interesting bottle to bring...

 

[Cruiser Elite]

OK kids I have just spoken to Sonia and OT are aware a ‘Special Group’ are visiting tomorrow night - most probably Cecelia will be looking after you.

And YES they have supply the Wagyu eye fillet - forget rest of menu - order med / rare or I take no responsibility.

The Wagyu eye fillet is probably going to be permantly added to menu at healthy premium to current $44 - but wherever they price it it will still be a bargain.

Make sure you all enjoy won’t you please? Oh and happy 55th bday boomy!

 

[penegal]

[AisleSeat]

[QF WP]

Hope you are all enjoying your dinner tonight

 

[boomy]

Was enjoyable night, six is good number all can talk to each other. Good to meet new and familiar faces. Thanks for @Cruiser Elite for the wagyu eye fillet recommendation, it was fantastic!
We closed the restaurant last to leave as usual...

 

[potm]

Agree that 6 is the perfect number.
Thank you for the lovely dinner all.

 

[AisleSeat]

Great meeting you all, thanks for an enjoyable evening. Thanks for organising @penegal.

 

[potm]

I just realised, I made a mistake when talking about using Amex points for Thai flights at the end of the night. It should have been 2 F flights from Syd-Bkk, not J. In case anybody was following my ramblings

 

[penegal]

Glad you lot had an enjoyable evening, sorry I couldn't make it.

Any photos?

 

[QF WP]

or it didn't happen...

 

[Buzzard]

You going to Murtho, @Buzzard ??

I'll have a quiet drink at home for you on Sat night, @penegal.

Spending some time on the NSW south coast.
