Paul is in support of Erin and will reach out to Ming tomorrow (Wed)
and get a reservation for 16 (2x8) at the round family tables at
TriZest for 6 August at 7pm.
My plan is to ask for the lamb dishes I have had, the cold spicy
noodle app and then 6 more Sichuan surprises per table with a budget
of $25 pp + $5 tip (sorry Aron) because of the lamb.
There is no alcohol at this location and I will inquire about
discrete byob. In the past I have known a few to put the cooler behind
the counter and serve (beer) in a glass with a small charge but you
brought it in.
So far, I count 8 confirmed and will work from there. Query for
confirmation will come next week.
As VTB has taught me, I will request mobile phone numbers for txt msg
individually at closing time via direct (not google group) means.
Please confirm your yes intentions via sms to me at 248 320 9046 and
your name in the body (to confirm I have it right) and we will go from
there.
Anybody think we should post this party on CH Great Lakes directly???
Our group won't grow if we don't and the embargo seems to have ended??
Best to all, Paul

So, I met with Ming today. Getting to the decision maker is all the
difference. She was very supportive and is the gatekeeper to the menu
and the chefs.
So, we are confirmed for 16 max on 6 August at 7pm at Trizest Madison
hts.
Budget is $25 pp + $5 tip. 8 authentic dishes per table with rice and
tea. I will text those that replied re: byob.
Menu will be available this weekend but it seems DanDan noodle, spicy
lamb and whole fish are "no problem" now. All Sichuan authentic. Again
no problem. As far as spicy we will have a range but "authentically
spicy for a native" was requested by me.
This is going better than planned and we have 11 confirmed and I have
replied to those that followed the instructions above and texted me.
See you soon. Paul

VTB (Vince) is in for two (but I also replied on the old thread, so
please don't double count me).
Thanks!!

so there is no anxiety as to replies:
Thus far for the 6th August at Trizest it's:
Paul
Doug + Elaine
Janelle
Erin + Jeremy
Christina + Petar
Vince + Julia
Gsu
Aron B.
Therefore 12 thus far. If it stays this way I will adjust to 6x2
dishes to maintain the budget. We can hold 4 more as we have the lucky
round tables of 8 each. Paul

I have posted the menu for saturday on chowhound but don't know how to
do it here. Trizest has gotten cold feet and have now asked directly
(the management) that we not bring alcohol. I don't see that we really
have much choice. We have four spots open and they want a deposit from
me so as of Monday you are all in the pool with me. Paul

I am bringing 24 of the best NA beers from China I can find and will
donate them. We need some bitter to match the heat. I think they have
water and tea. Let's find four new members and make it a bau/bau
party.

You need not bring any beer for me, Paul. Can't stand the stuff.
Don't mind if others want some, though!

So, CH has gone crazy and shut my access. They must think I'm
JanPrimus or something. We now have JP and Mike (MTB) which makes 16
and have room for 2 more. If someone who is not blocked can comment on
CH that there are two spots open but they need to come to google
groups to sign up I would appreciate it. So, list of 14 below + JP +
Mike and 2 new friends when we find them.

Cool: I made the deposit at the resto today and confirmed we are 14 (this math is correct, math below is flawed) at the moment but they would welcome two more. NA beer is now okay but flaunting is not.... Not much more to do but fill those last two spots. Thanks Janelle for tackling one. The CH post is now locked to all (?? Why??) so this is our means of communication as I suspect a new similar post will be deleted. I do think we will have to make a review (or 8) when we are done. See you Saturday. 7pm for all but VTB and it's 18h45 local for you bro.;-))

Here are some food photos from tonight's dinner. This is a public link
to Facebook, so it should work for everyone.
I briefly posted it on CH, but then realized that maybe people who
commented may not want their real names publicly associated. Sorry if
anyone clicked through during 30 seconds it was posted.

Thanks, Paul, for getting it all together!
