Thanks for confirming @Ade. Hopefully we'll catch you at a future meetup

Hi all. Looking forward to tonight !

I assume the reservation is under AFF ?

Just checking...do we need to bring cash or we can tap?

Separate reservations (i.e. 3 tables) made under Cameron, Cam, and CJ, all for 7pm. Was trying to ensure we didn’t get forced into the set menu

Just checking...do we need to bring cash or we can tap?

Maybe come prepared for both. I haven’t been to this restaurant before so not sure of their appetite for bill splitting, cash vs card etc.

Forgot to mention they did call me yesterday to ask whether I needed one big table or if they were separate tables? Despite the varied names (and different email addresses), I think needing to add the same mobile number to the bookings was the giveaway

A smart operator there. Would one big table force us to the set menus? As much as possible, I'd love us to stay on the regular table menu for individual orders.

BTW, what was the start time again? When do we board?

Indeed! I've kept it as separate tables to try and mitigate the risk of an enforced set menu. In any case, 6/7 to a table will likely be more conducive to ease of conversation and mingling.

Booking is for 7pm. I'll be in the CBD earlier than that, so happy to meet up with anyone who's around.

I work in the CBD so happy to catch up earlier. Should be free by 5.15pm

 

[Big John]

I work in the CBD as well. Happy to catch up earlier.

This is my FIRST AFF event, so would like to meet a few people before meeting more !

In that case, I shall definitely make the effort to get into the CBD earlier. Will aim to get in there by around 5:30, but will confirm closer to time once I know how my day is panning out

I'm happy to come earlier if some are catching up earlier....would it be at restaurant or somewhere else?

....would it be at restaurant or somewhere else?

Perhaps somewhere else then move onto the restaurant for dinner? Open to suggestions.
