Post #13 - October 31st, 2012, 3:28 pmSaturdays are a real zoo at Lao You Ju. In fact, I vowed to only go on weekdays from now on. With a group the size of this one, be sure to call ahead for a reservation or be prepared for a VERY long wait.Steve Z.

Post #14 - October 31st, 2012, 4:42 pmgood point. I'll put the cap on the list after this, and I'll call and make a reservation (hopefully they take a reservation!) I personally don't mind waiting, the shops and bakeries in the are can keep me occupied, but to ask a huge group to come wait in the cold would be rude. thanks steve!Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.

I'm not sure, as i don't even know what the pricing is like at this specific place. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that every LTH meetup I've been to has been somewhere around the range of $20-$35. Sorry, I know it's a big range, but I'm sure it'll fall in between there somewhere.Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.

Post #24 - November 2nd, 2012, 10:53 pmWhat name is the reservation under, or who should we ask for just in case (I haven't met many LTHers and I'm sure you guys won't recognize me).
