Get ready to celebrate a special milestone with our Fabulous Philly Friends community! We're marking our 2nd anniversary with an unforgettable banquet at the incredible Golden Gates Restaurant. We've been here once before, and it was a huge hit, so we're going back for a night of celebration, delicious food, and fantastic company.

Why You Should Join Us:
Golden Gates isn't just a restaurant; it's a culinary destination. Known for its lavish Russian and Eastern European cuisine and vibrant, celebratory atmosphere, it's the perfect place to toast to two years of friendship and community. We'll be indulging in their renowned deluxe banquet, a feast designed to delight all the senses. The venue also features a lively entertainment program with live music, a DJ, and performers to keep the energy high all night long. This was us last time.

What's the Plan?
We will be enjoying Golden Gates' famous banquet, a multi-course culinary journey that includes a wide array of appetizers, main courses, and dessert. It's a true feast fit for a celebration!
