Meeting Point: Pot Belly's, Soodring 21

Come one, come all! The proper Sunday roast is on...AGAIN!

The doors open at 15.00 for us and the buffet will start between 15.30 and 16.00. It will be all-you-can-eat until it is gone or until around 19.00 (whichever comes first). The bar will stay open (with pool included in the cost) until around 23.00.

Menu (there will be, at a minimum, the following):
Two Roast Meats (most likely pork and beef)
Roast Potatoes
Mashed Potatoes
Fresh Steamed Veggies
Yorkshire Puddings
Gravy
Dessert: Apple Pie and Custard
Drinks are *not* included

Price: 49.50CHF if paid in advance by Friday 18.November.2011
59.90CHF if paid at the door

Kids 12 and under: 25CHF---the venue also has a little play area for them

Location:
Pot Belly's
Soodring 21
8134 Adliswil
http://www.potbellys.ch/

It is a short 14 minute ride on the S4 from the Zurich main station (you do need a zone extension). Trains run every 20 minutes off track 1, and Pot Belly's is literally above the Sood-Oberleimbach stop. There is some parking available nearby as well.

You can pay me directly, through an IBAN deposit or through "cash" in the mail, both of which require PM exchanges (easy). Or you can go to Pot Belly's and pay in person (also easy if you live nearby). If you decide the latter, please let them know you are from the EF. And either way, please let me know by indicating your method of paying in YOUR RSVP so that we have separated who pays directly to the restaurant and who pays directly to me... Logistically, you all don't care about this but it matter to us organizers, so please help me out by doing this.

Remember, ALL are welcome!!

Any questions, let me know. Looking forward to it!

Re: "Proper" Sunday Roast (Part Two)

I totally forgot to THANK JLF and Potbelly's for the EXCELLENT organisation and FANTASTIC food! The waitstaff Gina and ? were wonderful, super friendly and efficient (my glass was never empty).
The food was so good, I almost went up THREE TIMES for more!
I rolled down that ramp when I left.

Thanks also goes to Rail for changing your plans last minute.

JLF - December 11th or 18th are good for me for the next one!

Re: "Proper" Sunday Roast (Part Two)

Hey everybody,

Potbelly's are at it again! This time for a "Festive Feast!" JLF is out the country until the day before this one so please contact the Potbelly's directly for your reservation/booking. This should be a good (another) one.
