Lao You Ju, Friday Nov. 9th, 10:00 am: Dim Sum and More!
-
Post #1 - November 4th, 2012, 11:27 pmWe're gonna try it again!
This time we're looking for anyone interested in trying dim sum at Lao You Ju during the week.
We're meeting at 10 am on this Friday the 9th.
I intend to order a few things off the regular menu as well so don't feel constrained to dim sum.
So far we have:
1. lemoneater
2. zoid
3. Sweet Willie
4. Lishan
5. Santander
6. Yina
7. Yina's +1
8. Danielle
If we get enough interest I'll be happy to make a reservation.

Post #4 - November 5th, 2012, 9:41 amI was thinking of going to LYJ to see what the fuss is about, but 10am is too early for me. Going to be hard to explain to people at work about taking a 10am lunch.
If there are plans for a 11:30-12 noon meal at LYJ, let me know!

Post #5 - November 5th, 2012, 12:48 pmMy friend Lishan will also join us."To get long" meant to make do, to make well of whatever we had; it was about having a long view, which was endurance, and a long heart, which was hope.

Post #10 - November 5th, 2012, 9:21 pmAdded to the list.
We're up to 7 already!
I may have to make a call and get a res just in case.
Also - last time we had 12 and it came to $15 a head including tax and tip.
With fewer people I'd expect that to go up a bit, so I making a complete WAG that we'd be looking at the $20 area? Does that sound about right?

Post #11 - November 5th, 2012, 9:45 pmWe've got a few poor grad students in the mix - maybe we could keep the shareables to closer to $15?"To get long" meant to make do, to make well of whatever we had; it was about having a long view, which was endurance, and a long heart, which was hope.

Unfortunately, I and 4 others need to leave by 11:30 at the latest, so that wouldn't work so well for us..."To get long" meant to make do, to make well of whatever we had; it was about having a long view, which was endurance, and a long heart, which was hope.
