It's been awhile since we've had a GNO and I'd say it's high time to have another! If anyone's interested, I'll be happy to organize. A few of us had discussed hitting the
Escobar in
Haidhausen, mostly due to the fact that they have lovely jumbo cocktails. But the venue is not necessarily set in stone. We've talked about setting it for Friday, February 1st- which I realize is right before Fasching- but it's also payday for
me a lot of people.
I, for one, am so delighted to have survived the holidays, that I'm ready to meet up with some of TT's finest ladies and go get blattered. If it sounds like something for you, voice your interest here.

Cocktails are good for you- something about anti-oxidants or something. Anyway, the food there is alright too. Come on, you know you want to.

Lots of good stuff in cocktails madgibson! Enzymes in the pineappleslices good for metabolism, the orange and lemon slices have Vit C... I could go on.

Yeah, right and what about all the sugar, coconut cream etc etc? You're not kidding anyone, least of all me

Think I'll have to take up full time residence at the gym soon...I've had 8 cocktails already this week and counting!
Escobar is damn good though...

Got an invitation to a Faschingsparty the same night so still weighing up what to do! Might pop in early for a quick cocktail fix then head to the party...we'll see. What time are you heading to
Escobar?
Carm
Jan 23 2008, 5:39 pm
I will be there early to make the most of happy hour!
Prob around 6:30 or 7.

I think that I will make it! No answer yet from the interview I got in Paris last week

or, we could hit the 4pm class together at the gym, and then head straight there.

Jan 24 2008, 9:33 am
I think I'll try to make it in for 6:30-ish as well. Happy hour starts at 5... hmm. I might go over straight from work so I might even get there by 6. Not sure yet though.
Carm
Jan 24 2008, 10:35 am
let me know your ETA, and I will try to be there to save a bar stool with you, okay, so that you don't have to drink alone, or, give me a sec, I will make another excuse to be there early to hide my obsession to Happy Hour.

Plus I'm available as early as people want to show up. Would hate to miss out on a good happy hour...
leeza
Jan 24 2008, 8:32 pm
I would really like to make this, but I can't say for sure at the moment. That may be the only night next week I can see my boyfriend before he goes out of town for a while... Can you put me down as a definite maybe?
Edit: Note of warning - I am a serious lightweight when it comes to cocktails, but it appears I will be in the presence of pros, so you'll look after me, won't you?
Carm
Jan 24 2008, 10:52 pm
if you are a light weight, then order the regular size not the jumbos, don't try to keep up with FallenAngel and myself, and ask for a glass of leitungs wasser with every cocktail.
Escobar also has free snacks (chips and sauces) for the bar patrons til about 8pm.
Tiggi
Jan 24 2008, 11:29 pm
Still hoping to get to this but will need to confirm next week, if that's ok?
@leeza, I won't be drinking huge amounts either, if I do come.

Just wondering, are we supposed to make a BNO as well for this same evening so that you gals have a party to crash once you're well and truly ratted to the point that TT men actually start looking kinda interesting?
Just curious,
woof.
Fallen Angel

It depends largely on how many of the girls attending are interested in impairing their judgement so badly through drink that they're interested in potentially hooking up with a fellow TTer. I, for one, do not wish to stand in the way of anyone's chance at getting laid, so if the boys choose to organize their own night out on the same night, then I will respect and support that decision.
Fallen Angel
Jan 25 2008, 8:00 am
I'll call
Escobar today to make a preliminary reservation for 10-15. In my experience, the number tends to fluctuate towards the day of the event- people dropping out and other just deciding last minute to come along. That's no problem really- as long as I have a general idea how many will be there. And if there's more than we've reserved for it's also not a problem because those tall tables are right next to the bar and there's plenty of room to squeeze in extra people.
As for my ETA- I've decided to aim for 6. I could get there earlier, but I tend to drink quickly...
Carm
Jan 25 2008, 8:46 am
great, i will aim for 6pm too.

Count me in too, the bf will still be in China so I won't have to put up with his pouting when I tell him I'm going out with a bunch or lovely ladies and he can't come.

I am tempted but have to confer with Scogs this evening as he is out of town all week, arriving on Friday and expecting my company.
Fallen Angel
Jan 26 2008, 3:54 pm
Ok, I've got the reservation made for 6:00 on. I made it for 15, but again, there's always room for extras.
So far we have:
1. me
2. Carm
3. DDBug
4. madgibson
5. goass
6. charmed
7. Duty Free
8. zurika
9. Leeza (?)

Sound advice there, Carm.
It's really helpful not to drink on an empty stomach. So be sure to order some food or have something before you get there. Also, choose your footwear wisely (no heels). I made that mistake last night. Too many drinks in combination with my ultra sexy 4-inch heels caused an ultra
unsexy tumble that landed me flat on my ass.

Edit: To be fair though, I can hardly walk in those heels when I'm sober, so it was no wonder really that I fell.

Just wondering, are you gals expecting one of us guys to hastily prepare a BNO that evening which you can drunkenly crash around 11:30 in order to tell us what shitheels we are before snogging us senseless, taking us home with you and then confessing to each other the next day in the women's forum?
woof.
Fallen Angel
Jan 26 2008, 4:28 pm

No. I don't think we are expecting that actually. Unless you'd like us to crash your party, berate you, then snog you all senseless and take you home.
