But does it help that I mentioned they forgot your food? Couldn't resist. 
But anyways........WELCOME BACK LOKI!!!!!!!!!!!  | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 9/29/2008 8:49:08 PM | | i'll look into finding an appropriate location for the german food night and if i find a place i'll mention it... as for now.. i say anything goes for me.. it's been too long since i've been gone... 18 months actualy.. and the fact i retired as a chef makes me miss food that much more. | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 9/30/2008 9:57:31 PM | 18 months without food? LOKI! lol...and yes, you were going to take on the German nacht. Thanks for the warm welcome back everyon! It's good to have resurfaced ;) I do remember the Sakana grill experience, and I think the delay in feeding half of us was to ensure enough sake was consumed! It's a plot I tell ya!
Cravings Market is very good, and a fun night, but not a very comfortable atmosphere if I remember right... bistro chairs are only comfortable for a short while! Mon Cherie, it is based on the idea of a street in Paris, and you go to each different "market" (eg: vegetable, salad, pasta, meat, wine, dessert) they used to have passports that you stamped at each market, this was your bill at the end of the night. I believe they use a plastic card now.
Tipperary's is on 16th NW, right? I think I've had a pint or 2 there.
OK. sorry for the rambling.. no chance that this message is too short!
So, Loki shall we leave German night in your capable hands? Or should we work on another night as well?

| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 9/30/2008 10:18:31 PM | fyi, the Cravings wine club dinners are a little differently set up....as they have a specific theme & 3 - 4 courses, paired with wine. The atmosphere was quite nice when some of us went before. Will have a different posting under wine club...for those interested to keep tuned to...they have a new chef and are just organinzing things with him. The market part is set up like you described puddle jumper.
looking forward to a german night, which would be great for oktoberfest time! hopefully something can pan out for this!
I think with the amount of people in calgary & surrounding areas, there are plenty of things that can take place & happen and look forward to some fun food events....  | |

| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/1/2008 8:21:59 PM | | k i just spoke with a lady from the german club here in the ne.. i'm going in to talk to them tomorrow after work and see if i can get a menu, prices and a date to book the whole place to ourselves... do we have a price cap? | |
|
| |
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/1/2008 8:25:21 PM | Do you know if it's family style dining, or if we can order from the menu?
Yayyyyy Loki!

| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 6:48:13 PM | Red flagged? What does that mean? I've never ever blocked you and you are on my favs too. Weird. I will send you a message .
We used to do the Ehnic dinners on Tuesdays. That works for me if that's the way you go. | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 7:37:43 PM | ^^^^^^^^^^No! No! No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Please do it on the weekend so us with kidlets can attend. During the week is too hard with family dinners, homework, bedtime......well you get the picture.  | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 7:39:30 PM | Food is good.
If I am around, I would definitely go for another ethnic food night. I don't mind spending on a good meal, but thinking $50 is starting to push my limits! | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 7:41:18 PM | | i was actualy gonna put a $40 limit on it.. i'm in the same boat.. any more and it wouldn't be good for my bank card at this junction in my life LOL | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 7:45:39 PM | I'm ok with a weekend too. Loki, when do you need to know the date by?
There are actually hardly ANY events right now so any weekend (except the long weekend) works for me. I pick October 18th. Does that work for you Loki? smiling eyes? Castaline? Anyone?  | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 7:56:58 PM | Sad to say the 18th does not work for me as that is the night of my kidlet's 13th birthday party.
So if you plan on having it that night, I hope everyone has an awesome time and definitely have a or or 10 for me. I am going to need!!!  | |
|
| Monthly event, Calgary Ethnic Food night Posted: 10/2/2008 7:57:07 PM | | ya for right now that could work... i dont' think i've got anything planned as of yet... i'd have to get a hold of the lady (can't remember her name) tomorrow at lunch and find out details.. | |
