Post new topic

rcraj

Hi folks,

Not sure if everyone is back from holidays. Wondering if we can plan out some gathering for current month--more towards Chinese new year week....

Any thoughts ?

How about Plaza Semanggi?  It's a decent mall that is more or less located smack in the middle of Jakarta... very easy to reach from anywhere in the city with a range of cool places to hang out in.

If you guys prefer cafes or lounges, the Kemang neighborhood in South Jakarta has more bars, cafes, clubs, lounges, and pubs per square kilometer than any other areas in Jakarta.  But be warned: these places never offer discount prices, and the traffic to Kemang on any day (yes, on any day including weekends) during the rush hour is a firm test of perseverance, faith, and sanity...

Harvey's Resto & Bar at the Energy Building in Sudirman Central Business District (SCBD) is also a good option... it's cozy and reasonably priced, with good food, drinks for those who drink, and live music on most nights.

Your pick, or maybe any of you have a better place to recommend?  Feel free to share... I'll go along...

hows about going to kota-glodok area in chinese new year, i think there gonna be more choices for eating there and we can also enjoy the celebrating as well, what do you think guys?

polloalaplancha

Hi everyone, When is the gathering taking place? This saturday (14 Jan)? I second Glodok area, but am also ok with Senayan.

rcraj

Hi,

I am open though seems like Sat is workable for everyone and Senayan seems workable for the moment.
How we communicate with each other-BB? or email?

Sorry folks, I had to take a last minute trip out of Indonesia this week. So I won't be able to join in this Saturday after all. :-(.
But if anyone is interested in meeting up over the Chinese new year weekend (say, dinner on 21 Jan), PM me and I'll arrange something....

misterdon

If my boss is no longer PMSy and refrains from telling me to do overtime this Saturday, I'm game...  But what time and where exactly though, Senayan City, Plaza Senayan, WTC Senayan or...umm maybe the Senayan Stadium?  :P

I've just lost my blackberry recently, but I've still got my Yahoo Mail/Messenger (don_andantino@yahoo.com) and the good ol' cell phone (021 9661 5389).  Keep me in the loop...?
