Belgian Christmas Meetup - who is definitely coming?

As things get booked up before Xmas, I thought it would be a good idea to confirm everyone's attendance and ensure we get a good table.

The meet up with take place at La Serenata in Zaventem at 8pm on Saturday 18th December.

So can you please let me know, on here, via PM or email/FB, whether you will definitely be coming along. Any thoughts on negotiating a fixed price menu, or would you prefer to choose on the night? The menu is on the website.

I am looking forward to seeing/meeting you all! Grin

I am coming!!! Will have a look at the menus to see what there is...

monkeybumsmum · 21/11/2010 18:23

Hmm hmm hmm. My mouth is watering even though I've just eaten Hmm I think I will go off the carte if that's okay, but goodness knows how you're supposed to choose from all that!

Are we going glammed up? Am hoping to start 'shredding' in the next week so might even be brave enough to wear a dress Grin

Portofino · 21/11/2010 18:36

I've been a few times and the food and service has always been good. The menu is HUGE though ;-) Fingers crossed!

I'll be there!
I am SO looking forward to it!
(I haven't had a night out since June!!)

I am happy to go with either menu or a la carte choices. It all looks amazing.
A set menu might be a good idea to control the price and reduce the choice, but the a la carte looks delicious.

Not helpful at all, am I!! :o

Portofino · 21/11/2010 20:50

I am hoping I can get away without shredding before hand as I have too much to do! Grin I hope you won't all turn up looking incredibly glamorous and show me up Wink

Glamorous? Me?
You'll be lucky if I manage to find some clean clothes and matching shoes! :o

Portofino · 21/11/2010 20:54

But you have lovely, scary looking heels!

OP posts:
RuthChan · 21/11/2010 21:02

Ah yes, the heels.
So scary that I won't be getting them out again too soon!

By the way, thank you for sending me a PM.
Where would I go to find it?

Portofino · 21/11/2010 21:03

Portofino · 21/11/2010 22:15

Looking good for the Antwerpian over this side. Hopefully, I'll have my hot flushes under control by then too!

LongtimeinBrussels · 22/11/2010 08:44

Me, me, me, I'm coming. And what about the cinema tomorrow?

LongtimeinBrussels · 22/11/2010 08:45

Kreecher, still need a bed for the night (though it's not that close to me anymore)? I'm sure Porto'll put you up though Wink!

belgo · 22/11/2010 08:46

Me! Porto - I will come to your house, and then back to your house afterwards and then a taxi back home from your house.

Is the website only in french?

belgo · 22/11/2010 08:46

And cinema too tomorrow, we need to decide on the time and place.

monkeybumsmum · 22/11/2010 08:55

Yay to cinema tomorrow, can't wait! Have we decided on the film?

belgo · 22/11/2010 09:13

My only 'demand' is that we see something in the original version - I don't like flemish dubbed films!

belgo · 22/11/2010 09:14

That link is for monday, I don't know why it didn't link to tuesday like I wanted it to.

frazzlenz · 22/11/2010 13:40

Porto, Monkeysbummum is picking me up :)

belgo · 22/11/2010 15:33

I suggest that we see The Social Network, (obviously being a group of MNers!) starting 19.45 at Kinepolis Leuven tomorrow. Meeting at 19.30?

How does that sound?

Portofino · 22/11/2010 17:38

I am happy with that! Longtime, are you still able to collect me en route. No worries if not. I have terrible lurgy today so hope I am feeling better tomorrow. I have far too much to do to be ill. Well at the least it would be better to be ill at the end of the week, when all emergencies are sorted and the horrible cold snow comes! Grin
