Feeding the Fleet

[arysteia]

Thanks for your prompt attention to the attendance post, it certainly made things easier, as it is getting more difficult to make large bookings every year.

Please take the time to look at the menus beforehand, especially for the two dinners, so we can order promptly and then let the chips fall where they may in terms of service. (The lovely lady agreeing to take on 23 of us was very pleased I said we were happy for food to come out as it was ready rather than all at once.)

Brunch Friday 29 September:

Spruce Goose seemed to work well last year, so we'll go there again. Either Wellington will put on an unbeatable good day, or we'll get to see some high seas.

Spruce Goose
30 Cochrane Street, Rongotai, 10am

Cocktails Friday 29 September:

Apologies, there is literally nowhere that can take a large group Friday night, presumably a combination of WoW and the World Cup. See you at dinner instead.

Dinner Friday 29 September:

Trying something new this year, one of the few Asian cuisines that hasn't been a g/t staple, Istana Malaysia has a vegetarian section on the menu and seems to have vegan alternatives on quite a few of the classics.

Istana Malaysia
1 Allen Street, Te Aro, 6.30pm

Weekend Lunch Options Seatoun:

TBA

Dinner Saturday 30 September:

You've got a bit of time yet to confirm your Hell order, but please get your sign ups and orders finalised asap.

Tonight we dine in Hell.

Dinner Sunday 1 October:

Five year faves Spirit House remain the best set up to cope with chaos on a Sunday night...

Spirit House
Cnr Park Road and Miramar Avenue, Miramar

Brunch Monday 2 October:

It wouldn't be right not to go to Fidel's, but this year I actually booked the courtyard. They were quite grateful, hahaha. I said we'd hang around and order second breakfast as usual, and I imagine we'll lose exclusivity as numbers dwindle.

Fidel's
234 Cuba Street, Te Aro, 10am
