                A party that might be of interest...            No replies

       I  am  currently  organizing  a party in the "restaurant review" 
       conference.  Since  I'm the organizer, I think I can announce it 
       elsewhere  also.  Since  I enjoyed the last womannotes party I'm 
       announcing it here.

       The  party will be for the appreciation of Thai cuisine. My wife 
       (who  is  a  Thai chef by profession) will be proposing the menu 
       within  the  constraints  of  what  the  restaurant can (and are 
       prepared to) offer

       See  TGIF::EATS  note  813  for  details.  If you are interested 
       please reply in EATS, not here. Thank you. 

       proposed  dates  are  the Fridays in August except the 12th (the 
       date of the next wommannotes party).

       Well just about every other notes conference seems to have had a 
       noters party, so why not this one. 

       I  propose  that we have an evening get together at the Giant of 
       Siam  (Thai)  restaurant  in  Nashua NH, some time in August (to 
       give  me  time to do the logistics). If you are interested reply 
       here. I will negotiate with the management to provide a "special 
       buffet"  style  meal  with a good range of different Thai foods, 
       both main course and starters. 

       I  would  expect  a  price  per  head  in the 10-15 dollar range 
       (probably lower rather than higher) depending on responce.

       Anyway  lets  get  the  ball  rolling and I'll get the logistics 
       going later.

       regards

       /. Ian .\

       I would delete 9.6, but though I wrote it, I put it in the wrong
       place and it got posted here by Bonnie, so now I can't delete it
       :-(

       Anyway, after the voting and whatnot, here is the updated
       information on this "Thai Ahan Di" festival. For those not
       interested I include a form feed. If you are interested please
       add you name in EATS note 813.

       Well the voting is closed and by a short head we have a winner. 

       Aug 5		44 votes
       Aug 19		34 votes
       Aug 26		40 votes

       So  the  party will be Next Friday, August 5th. We will start to 
       serve  soup  and  appetizers  at 7:00 PM, and the main course at 
       7:30 PM. The restaurant is open until 10:30 PM or later so there 
       won't be any hurry. 

       The menu is as follows: (* = mild, ***** = dragon fodder)

       Please  note:  this  is  a NO COMPROMISE meal. Each dish will be 
       cooked  as  the  chef  believes it aught to be cooked to get the 
       most  from  the  delicate  flavors  of  the  spices,  meats  and 
       vegetables it contains. Thai food varies from mild and innocuous 
       to  extremely  spicy (dragon fodder :-)). The only VERY hot item 
       on  the  table  will  be  the  Som  Dum,  and  those who are not 
       absolutely  certain  that  they  can eat and enjoy very hot food 
       would probably be well advised not to eat much of this dish! 

       However  nobody  has  ever  died  from  eating  Thai food to our 
       knowledge,  so relax and enjoy. However two pieces of advice are 
       in order:

       1)  If  you intend sampling several dishes, we suggest you start 
       with  the  mildest  and progress to the hottest, else your taste 
       buds  may  be  overloaded preventing you from truly enjoying the 
       more delicate dishes. 

       2)  Thai spices are oil based. If you should accidentally 'burn' 
       your  mouth,  we  suggest  you  DO  NOT drink water as this will 
       spread  the  oil  in  your  mouth  and make the sensation worse. 
       Instead  take a mouthful of rice, or vegetables. If you feel you 
       must  drink then drink something sweet (Coca Cola, or sweet iced 
       tea  or coffee are best, though beer has proven very efficacious 
       also). 


                               BILL OF FARE
                                   SOUP

               &  mushrooms  with  choice of chicken, shrimp or 
               squid) 

            *  Tom Kha Kai
               	 
               (chicken  in  coconut  cream  soup with galanga, 
               lemon grass, lime juice and cabbage)

            *  Winter Melon Soup
                 
               (chicken,  shrimp,  coriander,  pepper  and fish 
               sauce) 

            ** Giant Hot & Sour Soup
                 
               (pineapple,  tomatoes,  onions,  hot peppers and 
               scallions with choice of chicken or shrimp)

            *  A Vegetable soup (see below).


               The rest of the menu will be served buffet style:

                                APPETIZERS

       ==================

       Beverages:

       water  is  free:  you may order soft drinks, hot or iced tea and 
       cofee, wine or beer. We will have Kirin, Sapporo and SINGHA beer 
       available. Please pay the waitress. 


       Sweet: 

       you  may  order a sweet from the menu: We suggest that you order 
       on arrival. Please pay the waitress. 

       Logistics:

       The  meal  is  $12.50  per  head.  To  make things easier we are 
       providing  "tickets"  with  a  tear  off strips for the soup and 
       sweet orders, and sticky label "badges" so that we all know each 
       other, these, together with a sign in sheet will be available at 
       the  hostesses  desk.  To  make  things simple please pay $15 to 
       cover  the  basic  cost of the meal, NH meals tax and the tip on 
       arrival.  Other  charges  (drinks  and  sweet) are your personal 
       responsibility. 

       Vegetarian food:

       The  vegetarian  soup  and vegetarian entree are really "special 
       order". Please let me know by close of business on August 4th if 
       you need these items so that they will be available for you.

       Kap Kun Krap,

       When I started organizing this party in TGIF::EATS I was a little
       worried about getting the necesary 24/36 people for the price
       break and extra food items. So I advertised it in a few extra
       conferences. Numbers continued to grow and a week before the day
       I had 44 people registered.

       The day before I had 74. When I left on the day of the party I
       had 82.

       We actually had over a hundred attending!

       I certainly haven't ordered my thoughts to the point of entering
       a party report but I shall be doing so.

       The question now (please send me mail rather than clogging up
       this conference) is: is there a call for doing something similar,
       perhaps as "just" a womannotes party? And if so when? (I favor
       late October myself, but am open to suggestions).

       One suggestion was that we could consider having Thai cooking
       lessons (though I have no idea at this point whether the Giant of
       Siam could handle this, I might be able to arrange it at the
       Bangkok Oriental Cuisine in Merrimack)

       going write to Steve Lionel at Quark::Lionel or press the
       seven key on the key pad to add Human_Relations to your note
       book and sign in on note 548 in that file.

    It's been a long time since the last HUMAN_RELATIONS noters' party,
    so I think it's about time we had another one.  Furthermore, I am
    going to take the plunge and offer to host said party at my (sorta)
    new house in Nashua.
    
    The date I have in mind is Saturday, September 17.  I figure to
    start around 4PM, and continue through whenever...  I have a small
    gas grill, and folks are invited to bring food, beverages, and
    themselves!
    
    If you would like to come, please "sign up" either as a reply to
    this note or by MAIL to me.  I will periodically update and post
    a list of attendees - if you wish to not be included on the posted
    list, just let me know.  If you want to mention what you might bring,
    that will add to the fun.  (I think I will make an ultra-delicious
    chocolate dessert that I have only made once before - Dione Lucas'
    "Chocolate Roll".)
    
    See you in September!
    
    				Steve

    Please see 117.* for some party-food recipies.  Some of the stuff that
    people bring to our parties would be outlawed in any civilised country
    (Martin's wretched choco strawberries being at the top of the list! I
    hate those things <*slurp*drool*>)

    see 132 for a Thai-restaurant trip
    
    (while trying to check the date, I realised that there was no pointer
    to the string)

    Similar to 9.12, I was trying to check for party date/place/time,
    and found:
    
    271  - Party, December 3rd.
    
    (Date and place are there, but no directions, time, etc.  Hopefully
    this situation will correct itself as time progresses.  :^)

    Bill,
    
    Directions are never posted in the file. Further the time is
    the host's to set. David W?

    We had  a  rather  small  (non-)party Sat. This is not an official
    party  for  three  reasons:  We  want to have another larger party
    soon,  and don't want to have too many official parties. We didn't
    have a quorum. We only had enough leftovers for a week, instead of
    the traditional month following a real party.

    In any event, those who did find their way had a good time.  

    Thanks to   =Maggie  for  the  name  tags,  and  lots  of  people,
    particularly  Jody and Bonnie for the help setting up and cleaning
    up.

    enough  of  them and enough others show up so we can consider this
    to be an official party.

    We did  have  a  quorum  this  time, and had a wonderful time last
    night.  Because of all the wonderful deserts, I've had to schedule
    an  extra  squash  game every week until spring so that I'll still
    fit into my clothes.

    My thanks   to  everyone  who  helped,  particularly  =maggie  (in
    abstentia)  for  the  name  tags,  and  Bonnie  and Meigs for help
    cleaning up afterwards.

    And many, many thanks to you David for having us.  And to all
    the wonderful people who came.  I enjoyed myself immensely and
    enjoyed meeting co-noters - Are you famous? - and discussing
    topics and just finding out more about ourselves.
    
    Love to all of you,

    I sure hope so. . .if you weren't I must have either have been

    worry, but I thought I saw one of the guests off to the side,

	OOOPs!  Um, uh, gee - that was how we met, wasn't it 'Ren?  
	Hey - you were the one who started it in 707.0 ---> 
        "If women were running things" !

	Permit me to correct myself (from above) - 

>> or "unpadded" contraceptives at a noters-party.  :-P

          Excuse me, Mr. Haynes, but the East has been this "progressive"
          for a while... When I was in high school (1983) in Orlando,
          Florida, I attended a costume party (at Christmas time, no less)
          where 2 cheerleader friends came dressed as hot-fudge sundaes.
          Their "costume" consisted of hot fudge, whipped cream, chopped
          nuts, melting ice cream, and, um, a cherry.   And I thought I was
          being daring that night by being "Jane" (as in "Tarzan and").  It
          was all I could do to keep Tarzan (my date) occupied!

          >  Outrageous".

          Yeah, I can just imagine your costume _this_ year, Mr. Charles
          "Wise-Ass" Haynes.  What'll it be - a fissure :-) ?

          Silly you! :-)  I was wondering when Ms. Spielverderberin would
          interject her words of wisdom (ha ha =m).
                                                            ;-]

    Re: .33

    Aww, why'd you have to go and spoil my nice safe image of the East
    Coast? I don't know ANY outrageous people out there... :-)

    Anyway it sounds like fun. (now where can I find that much hot 
    fudge? hmm...)

    >> "Lifetime achievent award" in the costume category "Most

    > Yeah, I can just imagine your costume _this_ year, Mr. Charles

    No no no. We've been explicitly asked to not wear anything that is
    earthquake related AND tasteless (and I agree). Given that I'm sure 
    to be tasteless, I'd better not be earthquake related...

    As for my lifetime outrageousness, you'll just have to come out :-)
    some Halloween and see! We can do the Castro, dahling, and see some
    SERIOUS outrageousness. Halloween is the national holiday of San
    Fransisco!

    Re .35, somebody left a pair of glasses at Horsefeathers last night.
    Whoever it was - if you want'em - they're at my desk on 5-5 in the
    Mill.

    Announcing the "Throw Back the Winter" noters' parties!  It's been awhile
    since there has been a general, everyone-can-come noters' dinner/dance
    party.
    
    Date:  Friday, March 2nd, 1990
    Time:  6:00 pm - we close the bar down!
    Place: Chopsticks Restaurant in Leominster, MA 
    
    *ALSO*
    
    Date:  Friday, March 2nd, 1990
    Time:  7:00 pm - we close the bar down!
    Place: Nan King Restaurant in Hudson, NH
    
    Something has come up which has forced me to deliver two parties on the
    same night.  You have a choice now... you can go to Chopsticks (I'll
    still make the reservations, although I won't be going there) or you
    can go to the Nan King (I'll make reservations for there too).  The
    band at the Nan King will be Legal Tender, starring 3 DECcies.  The
    band at Chopsticks will be In Fair Way (or something like that - I had
    a hard time understanding the guy at Chopsticks). 
    
    I'll need a total headcount by February 28 for both places, so mark 
    your calendar now and don't miss out!  Send your RSVP to NACAD2::KRISTY 
    with info regarding which party you will be attending and reserve your
    dinner and/or dancing seat today!
    

Please send any changes to me ASAP at NACAD2::KRISTY.  Thanks!
