Happy Daze -
First of all, I wish to thank all those that made our Yum Cha at the Regal Chinese Restaurant so enjoyable the last 2 meetups. I can't remember a more wonderful Sunday afternoon than being amongst 20 friends, both old and new, while enjoying scrumptious food.
Many requested that I repeat it, but at another restaurant, so why not? Our upcoming Yum Cha will be at the Mages tic Cuisine, on the ground floor almost underneath the Regal Chinese Restaurant.
For those that are unfamiliar with a Yum Cha, it is an age-old Chinese custom where family (including extended families like ours) and friends gather at large round tables for brunch. A spinning lazy Susan is in the table's middle where throughout the meal, servers place small plates of delicious food that the table has ordered.
You are welcome to bring wine to make the experience even more fun, but you don't have to. If you don't wish to participate in the Yum Cha meal, you may order off the menu and just pay for your food. Those who participate in the Yum Cha will equally divide its costs at the end, which should be between $20 to $25. If you bring wine, you will pay for its corkage, which I believe is around $6.
Newbies, this will be a great opportunity to meet the old members before joining them at an evening Yum Cha
Please RSVP ASAP as more that do, the more that will do so later.
Best wishes - Michael
