Only Internation's gathering have to pay before you join


I'm no really sure if we all gonna fit in Amadeus, but it's okay, I think it will be kinda cocktail party Still nice place to have a gathering.

In case if want to change location please don't choose locations like liquid exchange; nice place but too noisy, all we can do is drink and stare each other. Same goes to live music places. Because in Indonesia if there is a speaker in a place and highest volume is 10, it must be always 10, there is no way place owner makes it 8... That's the rule.

ooouch, I'm so sorry for this Cjuliana and all friends here, I have to fly to Jogjakarta at 6th of July...  so it is impossible for me to join the gathering... have fun y'all...

@cjuliana and friends :  Im sorry I couldnt join , my flight back to Indonesia at 6th July...will be arrive at 10pm.. I will try to join another time..have fun all !

ochie, it's okay if you can't make it. Hope to see you someday. Thanks btw

Usually when big gatherings like this starts at 7:30.

Few people always come at 7:30 and leave before 8 by saying sorry I have to rush for a family gathering.

The rest of the people hang in there till 10. End of gathering people in same frequency deciding to move another place like liquid exchange. If they go earlier than that, later comers should call Juliana for next destination.

So in my opinion no big difference between 7 and 8. I will be there early anyways cz of macet.


So for those who come late, give a call when you nearby.

ya, you're right.

Btw, I am thinking about changing the venue for some significant reasons. I will inform the venue tomorrow afternoon. Hope it'll be fine with the participants. Thanks.

If not so far from the first destination, I don't think it would be a problem. Of course I prefer more selatan but it would be a disaster for those coming from north on friday macet.

or maybe should change the day to other than friday /monday because friday well known for worst traffic...well not for me cause i live in epicentrum rasuna but for others?

Somewhere around Bundaran HI (Grand Indo or Plaza Indo) will be more convenient for me and some others probably. ^_^
However, I'm fine with any place.
Looking forward to your decision, cjuliana.
ciao!

Usually the place like Paulaner, Koi, and similar like those places include Bluegrass (still waiting friend's reply), have minimum order or need to down payment first, this is cjuliana's first project hehehe and she is not sure yet how much we spend the money and sometime people change in the last minute (we never known rite?)

I'll help to find a place around Kuningan, Senayan & Thamrin,,,hopefully


That I know is Paulaner asked for minimum order IDR8M (include tax) for private room
And the regular table, first come first served, so for this case who want to come at 7 pm in Paulaner? And book for us?

happy lunchie,,,ugh lapar

I got 3 options

1.Paulaner
Located in Jl. MH Thamrin No.1(Hotel Indonesia area). As we already know, we need to pay for 8mill for private or we must be there at 6 in order to get the tables.

2.Cork&Screw
Located in Wisma Kodel, still in Kuningan area. Deff no need min order or any reservation. You could find the menu in the website.

3.Bluegrass
Located in Epicentrum. Just got tables for 20 persons. And it will be outside.


I need your comment. Well, I prefer Cork&Screw. Need the replies til tomorrow morning. If there won't be many replies, then I will deff pick C&S.
Thanks

i vote for Cork & Screw.

so the final decision is at?

Cork & Screw at Wisma Kodel

hi everybody,
i am a bit worry to read that the place is not define yet.
juliana, please move ahead !
for Paulaner, for example, no need to take a "special" room at 8 millions. tables can be arranged . They are very friendly and i am sure it is possible specially if you "weight" 40 customers, you have enought elements for negociation with that !
please discuss with them
Thanks,
Nick

this Sunday with few freinds (locals and expats) we plan to meet at Pacific Place (Pacific mall) for an "icecream" at 3PM. it will be very friendly and the opportunity for you to meet other foreign people. If you are are interrested, don't hesitate everybody is welcome
