get together & try restaurants in cairo

Hey Guys -

I was at the Tea house with a buddy from 745p - 830p. It was pretty packed and def. no room upstairs. Sadly didn't see you guys. Next time let's def. exchange mobiles...I totally thought Ginger Hair and Asian dude would be totally easy to recognize! haha. Anyways, hope you guys met up and had a good evening. A la prochaine!

cheers,
Joe

I'm really sorry about that - we stayed until nine upstairs but I guess we were a little hidden from view :-/ I'll give you my phone number next time. At least you weren't on your own :-)
Elaine

It was so great of you to organize the whole thing, Elaine. I had a really nice time. Hope to see you again soon.

Sofia

Ah, no worries. We were totally two ships passing in the night. It happens. It will only make the next meeting all the more profound. lol. Have a great week everyone.

Though I will be arranging a dinner at a new restaurant somewhere between the 25th and 29th of Jan.


Let me know if you are interested.

Hi, don't think I replied to this before but I'm up for a meal somewhere and I'm sure lots of others will come out too so keep us posted :-)
Elaine

Hi,

I would also be very interested in going for a meal with some of you guys. I'll check the site for the latest updates.

Have a Good One

hi, i will visit Cairo Feb 6th-10th. I travelling alone. It will be nice if i can join you for the dinner to try out the restaurants there.

Hi all!

Plans for a dinner next week are in the making. If you are an EXPAT and dont mind spending about 80 pounds on food, drop me a line and I will get back to you.

3 guests are already confirmed. We are looking for 3-4 more.

I am eager to hear from you guys

It's a pretty small do (I understand the reasoning behind that), but it's only open to expats?

Dear All,

Is this tradition of trying restaurants and meeting up still on...
would be a pleasure to join the next get together...

Ciao
Arun

Let's revive that tradition, any ideas.

Hello All,

I am new here and I quite like the idea. Is there any plans to gather again? I'm up for it!

Hi, we have an outing planned for tomorrow night in Zamalek at the Marriott Hotel - check out the 'going out for a beer' topic for details :-) It'd be great to see you there, otherwise there'll be more events soon I'm sure

Elaine

Hi Eltviola, thanks  a lot for your response! I would love to join tomorrow night, but I can only do it on Thursdays or Fridays. I really hope you do it during weekends too...Will be checking the both topics.

hey, shame you can't some but don't worry we normally go out at weekends Will post on here for the next outing so keep a look out.

Elaine

Hi,

I am new here and I would love to join your next meeting.

Hi and welcome Of course you can join, nothing specific is arranged yet but I will sort something out for next Thursday night (21st April) if that suits people?

Most likely in Zamalek or that area. How do people feel about Sequoia? Or the Marriott hotel palace gardens (was a cosy get together there last night )? There's lots of space in these places and a nice atmosphere, although the minimum charge at Sequoia is annoying if you're not eating there. Let me know what you prefer and I'll post something definite soon.

Anyone else making plans?

Thursday sounds great to me! I don't mind both, but Marriott would probably be better.

OK - The Plan for Thursday!

Meet up at the Marriott hotel in Zamalek in the palace gardens from 8pm on Thursday 21st April (2011 )

For more info:
Marriott Garden Cafe

The garden cafe is only open until 11pm, but the Egyptian Nights place also in the gardens is open until 2am and has Shisha if you like it

Anyone is welcome, Egyptian or expat, just walk into the gardens and look for a table nearby with people in their 20s who look like they could do with some sun (I'll be there with 3 friends from England ) It'll be a good chance for newbies to make some friends or for oldies to catch up.

If you're nervous about whether you'll find us, send me a message and we'll sort something out Hope you can make it.
Elaine

I think I'l brave the trip to Zamalek this time round. I'm not sure if i have your number Elaine, plz pm it to me, because I am most likely coming alone.

i'm in me and my boy friend i'm new in cairo and this is my first time to join u guys c u in mariott how am i gonna find out which table?

Cool, check your inboxes :-)

Well, all my friends will be out of town for the spring break vacation and I would need some company on that day, But I have a feeling I will be intruding if i just came like that with out even planning or helping to plan or maybe even picking someone up!!!

let me know please what can I do to make me feel good!!!

see you all hopefully on Thursday.

It's no problem - this is as much for people to make new friends as anything and there's  no effort involved, just turn up and enjoy yourself :-)

Sorry I didn't get round to replying to this! I had a meetup at the Marriott but nobody new from the forum came really, just me and my friends in the end  hope to see some new people at Alain Le Notre tomorrow night in Zamalek.

Elaine
