Why not ... Just better choose an exit number ...

Kmiller

is it too late to join the brunch? ValenChina invited me this afternoon? and I also got an invite from Mbg.junior earlier . and maybe one other?

hansvc

Hi Kmiller, you can join at your own risk :p. We will be such a large group (more than 30) that one seat more might not be a problem.

Or you can call the restaurant (they have English speaking staff) to add one more seat. Reservation is made under 'hans'.

Toe-B

30 people??? And I thought we were a lot last time...

Meanwhile I figured out that Exit #5 is probably the best spot to meet for people coming by metro line 1 or 10. So if you dont want to walk there alone:

Tomorrow, 11:45 at Exit 5, Shaanxi Rd South metro station We can meet outside, right in front of the entrance/exit gate.

hansvc

Hey Toe-b, thanks for taking care of that. I'll go straight to the restaurant though so it might be a good idea to share phone numbers with those who will join u at the subway.

Speaking of which, if anyone needs my number, send me a PM.

Thanks

RachelleKessels

hi good idea !! i will also join you guys at the exit of the metro :) see you all there, looking forward to it !

Asmus

seems we've got a nice big group together. I will also go direct to Mi Tierra. If you have my mobile number and need help to find the place than just give me a call.

For the people coming from the Metro Shaanxi Nan Lu Station ... better you walk Maoming Nan Lu,? and just move down up to the end in south direction. At the end of Maoming Nan Lu is Mi Tierra. You can not miss it.

hansvc

@Kmiller and everyone else, I just passed by the restaurant. There is plenty of space, they will arrange sufficient seats in case there will be more people attending sooo...feel free to join!

Also, instead of the 145rmb deal including one drink, they proposed a 160rmb deal all-you-can-eat-and-drink deal (soft drinks or coffee). 299rmb gets you unlimited food and alcoholic drinks.

Kmiller

For some reason when I took the taxi and gave them they addy they took me to line 9. Can anyone shed light on this? was I close and didnt know it?

hansvc

Anyone has some activities planned in the near future? Let us know!


PS: Kmiller, line 9 Dapu bridge station is close to the restaurant. What a pity you didn't make it, you should have asked for my number upfront...well, there's always a next time!

Asmus

Heeeeeelllllloooooo !

Hi,

On my side, I am fully booked both days with the PADI Rescue course ... And with a birthday event on Saturday night ...

By the way, if anyone is interested in Scuba Diving, there is a center BIG BLUE- big-blue.cn in Shanghai which is very good ... They are also organizing a "Free Try Dive" Operation this weekend ... More info on their website ...

Asmus

@Valentina: forget about your buddy. You will have a great time with us, I am sure :-)

@Hans: good to see that you are in. I forgot who introduced this bar to me, but think it was a strange belgium guy from epat-blog ;-)

@Vintaro: Welcome to the club, see you tomorrow at Kaiba

@´¡³Ü°ù¨¦±ô¾±±ðZ: What happen to your profile photo? And where is the introduction on your profile page? Just kidding Dear. But I feel strange about people who ask others to introduce them self and give no informations about them self. Never mind, take it easy :-)

Two options:
1. Just go to exit 1 and I'll be sure the only laowai waiting there will be of our group.
2. PM Toe-b for his phone number to be sure

If you are going straight to the cafe, i can give you my number via pm or I'm pretty sure that organizer Asmus would be willing to give you his number through pm.

See you there

vintaro
