08.01.2013 19:00 to 21:30
*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
City/Town: 3008 Bern, Laupenstr
Event Type: Dinner
Meeting Point: Boky, Laupenstrasse 5

Continuing our success with getting the Bernese to actually do something
(usually we meet on the first Tuesday in the month, but this month the 1st January is a holiday)
we will meet at the Chinese Restaurant Boky at 7 pm on Tuesday 8th January.
http://www.boky.ch/index01.html

As usual the reservation will be under the name "English Forum". It is a small restaurant, the Thai Ambassador eats there.

Please make definite reservations (which you can later cancel) we don't want a "maybe reservation" - it's embarrassing to reserve an empty chair.

Bumping this up. I expect you are all concentrating on Christmas, but there will be life after 21.12.12 and after Christmas too!

Super excited to see so many RSVPs for this event!

Please, please - if you cannot make it be sure to change your reservation or send a message to Sbrinz by 4 p.m. It really does look bad to have empty chairs, and the more we do it the less likely places are to give us big tables.

Thanks and see you there!

2 tables have been reserved, ask for the English Forum.

Reservations close at 4 pm, so I can finalise with the restaurant.

As 3-wishes says, please let us know if you cannot make it, before 4 pm Tuesday.

Looking forwards to meeting many new faces.

For a long time only Basel and Zurich could get a dinner evening going. I hope now this has changed for the better. It must be miserable arriving in a new city, only knowing your work colleagues. I hope we can continue to have a good attendance folks!

Yep! They saw you would be there.

I have to phone in an hour and order a bigger table.

Re: 08.Jan.2013 Come & Dine With Us in Bern, at Asian restaurant Boky

Ok everyone, it looks like we will be 20 people tonight, a very good turnout indeed! As usual I will ask you all tonight for suggestions for our next dinner.

At the moment I am thinking of the Altes Tramdepot, but please bring along your recommendations! http://www.altestramdepot.ch/htm/home.htm

One day, I will make one of these dinners, but not at the Tramdepot. The beer is great, but the food is nothing to write home about .

Paddy, if you saw the amount of beer our group usually consumes, you'd see why this is a good choice.

And Sbrinz you must be psychic, because OH and I were just discussing Altestramdepot as an option!

Everyone
I am so terribly sorry but I just went to 5 cash points and my bank card is not working-magnetic strip is messed even though I used just yesterday-- so annoying!
So I need to cancel tonight!!!
Really sorry for all the inconvenience caused... Was really looking forward tonight!
Have a great dinner and sorry again!

Hi Stella, if that happens again, or to anyone else, just come along and I will lend you Fr 50,-- it isn't a big thing.

We did miss you, as we were only 16 people, but 3 other people couldn't come. However it was still an excellent turn out with several new faces.

Re: 08.Jan.2013 Come & Dine With Us in Bern, at Asian restaurant Boky

Hello all,

I am now in Bern and all my concerns have vanished - the people are so friendly and nothing like what I was told! Are you still meeting at this restaurant on the first Tuesday (tomorrow I believe?). If so, I can join if not too late.

thanks,

mike

Mike we meet at a different restaurant every first Tuesday of the month.
This month we are 100 meters east of Boky, next to the tram stop in Schwanengasse 3. http://map.search.ch/bern/schwanengasse-3 at Domino.

Please sign up, I am expecting you at 7 pm!
Bern: come dine with us, on Lebanese food, 7th May at 7 pm.
