Vannix 17 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) Should we all carry a red rose to identify ourselfs on the day? Edited November 14, 2011 by Vannix Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AAAZR 92 Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Should we all carry a red rose to identify ourselfs on the day? :lol: I was thinking more along the lines of eye patches or something Closer to the time we can set up an email list with contact details for each other and for those of you that's as bad as my husband with remembering names, I'll take stickers with so that you can write your names on it..(not compulsory,just a suggestion).

AAAZR 92 Posted November 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Will make booking tomorrow then for 11 adults, 10 children (of which 3 teenagers).Any one that still wants to join us,you are more than welcome!! I will make the booking for more people than the ones that have already confirmed.Look forward to meeting everyone!A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AAAZR 92 Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 I need input from you guys please. I made the booking but the manager told me that for a group booking they have set menus with price per person whether you eat something or not...I fully understand this because they can't book 20 places and then everyone just drinks something.The menus start from R65 per person but there are different menus we can choose from. I don't mind paying this as I know the quality of their food but I'm not the only one attending Please let me know how you feel about this. I wil post the menu options later.Hope to hear from you soon!A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
heidim 351 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 We are fine R65 per person. I assume this does not apply to the toddlers?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vannix 17 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Did I say it is fine by me on the other thread? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AAAZR 92 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Hi Vannix,Yes you did :)Sorry guys but I posted in both threads as I got the idea that some people only decided to join when I posted under Midrand coffee club as well.Just to avoid confusion I will now only update the Midrand thread.Thanks!!A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AAAZR 92 Posted November 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hi Vannix,Yes you did :)Sorry guys but I posted in both threads as I got the idea that some people only decided to join when I posted under Midrand coffee club as well.Just to avoid confusion I will now only update the Midrand thread.Thanks!!ASome people are still replying to the Centurion thread so I will duplicate the post here as well. Don't want to miss any body :ilikeit: Kids eat from the normal kiddies menu which is usually in the region of about R30 We will be ordering off the Mezzo menu which is R70 per person and served between 10:00 and 12:00. Its a more flexible menu in the sense that its not just a breakfast menu.Recently added to the list is Stephen Marais!!

blondiejhb 70 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Just checked the menu, and O MY Yum, I could go right now - but way too many choices, it all just sounds too delicious. Not that I had any doubts about coming but I am certainly not missing this. YAY, something to look forward to Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Donovan83 1,139 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 It'll be cool! Looking forward to this I might be a little hungover though, my company's year end function is on Friday night! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AAAZR 92 Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Just spoke to manager again...Because we added people they need a deposit for the function and we have to sign terms and conditions...I am willing to do this BUT everyone must be aware of the fact that we pay for the number of people booked whether they pitch or not...But this also means that if anyone else decides to join us there won't be space for them....A LOT of rules! Are all the restaurants so full of *$@# with bookings??Alternative is to say chuck it and just go to Spur or something!!Input please?A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Donovan83 1,139 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 If a restaurant is going to make it difficult to be their customer, then I think we should go somewhere else. Why do we need to lick their ass to be a customer and pay them money?Where else should we go? Aren't there maybe any forum members with a restaurant that we can support?

AAAZR 92 Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) I think the problem with this venue is that they know how in demand their restaurant is,especially amongst people with children...I'm open for suggestions! Time is running out...AI have to confirm and pay deposit tomorrow...so please guys I'd like some direction. I'm also going to post on Centurion thread to bump up both threads Edited November 23, 2011 by AAAZR Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AAAZR 92 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Booking done and deposit paid! Blondiejhb also phoned and spoke to different manager,whole different story! Much more relaxed So Papachinos it is then. Reservation name: Forum Meeting/AnnekeLook forward to meeting everyone. A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blondiejhb 70 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Hi guys. I am so looking forward to meeting you all AS you can see AAAZR has paid the deposit (this is a huge leap of faith), please can we all just help her and bring at least half of our cost in cash so that we can refund her when we get there, and not let her down by not showing up Thanks for everything you've done Anneke See you all soon.....
