Due to unpopular demand, we are going back to the Thai restuarant
Khanittha in
Neuhausen on Thurs, 15th Feb.
(nasty rumour has it that there may be a group heading to the Muddy Boot afterwards...but we can see how the evening develops)
If you indicate here that you want to come along, I will happily book the tables again.

You're just desperate to organise something again, admit it.
It was good last time, it will be good this time.
ruapehu
Jan 25 2007, 12:08 pm
Yeah, Jeeves, go on, give my game away.
I take kit your post constitutes a sign-up - so now we are three (hoping that Topsy can make it this time)
Here's the link, by the way (it's Thorwaldsenstrasse 19):

I was just thinking today it's time for another general, not age/sexual persuasion/type of drink-limited night out.
I really cannot say quite yet, it depends on many factors. Put me down as a maybe with a phantom +1, thanks.

Ooh, please count me in as a very enthusiastic maybe! Last time there was great!

Ooh, for a change I am actually in Munich on this date. I've never been to this particular "Khanitthar", but the one on Kirchenstrasse in
Haidhausen is my favorite Munich restaurant.
ruapehu
Jan 27 2007, 6:20 pm
well, that puts us at provisionally 9 so far. Glad to see so many repeat-offenders signing up - confirms the restaurant's quality.
As sarabyrd said, this event is a free for all - anyone can sign up
koorosh

Hi koorosh and topsy - you and your +1s are welcome.
Topsy: I have a sneaking suspicion I may know who your +1 is

and helena - another repeat offender defnds the restaurant's reputation
so far 16... any more???
should be a good evening, I'm looking forward to it
if I've missed anyone, let me know!

Feb 7 2007, 6:44 am
I am going to make a tentative reservation at the restaurant today, so any further interest let me know now..
I'm sure we can still extend the reservation if enough extras sign up next week, but I want to get at least this lot covered, as it's not a huge restaurant and it is popular - because it's so good

Hi AllSaint - glad you can make it too.
Tables provisionally booked for ca. 20 under the name of Johnson - my current count is 17, so room for a few more
Looks like it's going to be a good mix of newbies, oldbies and middlebies!
FranB
Feb 7 2007, 5:06 pm
Plans have changed - looks like I'll be around for the dinner - do you have room to add me in? ... besides I need to ensure Tiggi doesn't quaff too much of that vino stuff on my behalf and get

(not that she would ever do something like that...!!!)
ruapehu
Feb 8 2007, 6:36 am
Great FranB, of course we have room for you at this stage. Also iscream, who PMed.
I think we're now at 19 - that's fine. Looking forward to a great evening!

As bucket06 had to pull out, that makes it now 20.
Any others? Speak now, or...

Feb 12 2007, 3:23 pm
Errm... pardon my ignorance/potential faux-pas, but I was wondering if english-speaking-German-significant-others are welcome.
ruapehu
Feb 12 2007, 4:22 pm
@fuzzbrain - anyone of any nationality is welcome as long as they are aware that most of the conversation will be in English. Last time I brought a German friend along - no problem!
However, just bringing them isn't ok - this is a restaurant, not a stand-up party. I need to know by tomorrow how many people to reserve seats for.
So, should I assume you are a "+1"?
fuzzbrain
Feb 12 2007, 4:46 pm
No no! I was just asking because I'm unfamiliar with protocol. I guess I should have asked in a general forum, not this particular string. Sorry!!
ruapehu
Feb 12 2007, 5:44 pm
oh, ok..fine...so I'm still not quite sure what you really want to know, but:
my +2 this week are both not registered TT people...no problem with that. One of them is a native speaker the other one is Swedish. Certainly you can register guests. For many events, where there is no seating (like meeting in a pub), you don't need to even say you're bringing people.
Real partners (in case that's what you meant) are also tolerated

...there are some couples on TT..sometimes both are registered, sometimes only one.
I guess what may be a problem in general is if people go along to an event really looking for an English lesson..not understanding everything is fine, but if people get everything explained to them (sometimes over and over again) that isn't necessarily relaxing or fun for native speakers (especially those who work as teachers and are doing something on TT for a night off).
And all I care abut for this week is not having far more or far fewer people than I told the restaurant about, as it's not huge and I wouldn't want people to be standing about with nowhere to sit (and often it's not the extras, because they got there earlier; it's someone who registered but arrived late) or to have th restaurant saving a lot of space that doesn't get used because of no-shows..
Anyway, there doesn't seem to be a great last-minute rush so I think we're fine..I'll reconfirm the place tomorrow.
Looks like it'll be a really good mix!

Restaurant is confirmed for Thurs 19:30 under Johnson.
If anyone else wants to sign on last minute, I'll happily put you on a waiting list until I can check with the restaurant if they can do another table.

I wanna come...just checking my map...will confirm within the hour

My man isn't up for it so I am out...damn...I love thai food...maybe next time...
ruapehu
Feb 15 2007, 4:40 pm
Hi Sari, well, assuming that the tables will be arranged not to fit 23, but 24, I can say that's ok.
Now however reservations are closed!!!
Anyone else who wants to go at the last minute, please call the restaurant yourselves (The restaurant with new number is on the thread) and book an extra table - we will of course talk to you... but this is a pretty small place, there's no guarantee that they will have any more room and I don't want those who have reserved in time to go without.

Thanks very much, ruapehu. Really good evening and I was well impressed by the food this time, especially given the size of the group. Was great to catch up with people I hadn't seen for ages too. Hope no-one's in pain this morning!
