Title: Part of the entertainment before dinner
Post by: RJ7868 on January 15, 2007, 02:07:39 PM: The first Saturday of every month the Wairua Cafe in Gosford holds a Maori Buffet.

My family and a couple of friends did this last year and walked away and not being able to eat the next day. (All you could eat)

The cost is $35 per Adult head. Children are $5 for a 5 year old, $6 for a 6 year old, $7 for a 7 year old and so on until 11 years old. Then they are charged as Adults. A $20 per head deposit needs to be organised a couple of weeks before hand and bookings are essential.

The reason for this post is to find out, what sort of interest there would be to hold a run and dinner to the Central Coast.

I have contacted Jenny the Events Co-ordinator, and she has told me that 5th May looks to be the best month for this.

So basically I am looking for a show of hands and deposits before hand so I can book for the night. I will also be trying to get this into the monthly Mag.

Thanks guys.

Post by: RJ7868 on February 13, 2007, 07:51:58 PM: Ladies and Gentlemen,

Tonight I have been offered the Saturday 3rd of March 2007 for our club to eat at discounted prices.

NEW PRICE FOR MARCH ONLY $25 PER HEAD

I need to know before 9am tomorrow if you want to change the date to March. If you could post your replies tonight so I can gauge the response, that would be great.

If I do not get any responses I am guessing 5th May will be the date and at $35 per head.

I will need to collect Deposits of $20/head ASAP to secure which ever date you guys decide.
Title: Part of the entertainment before dinner
Post by: SC on February 13, 2007, 08:49:01 PM: march is good for us
Title: Part of the entertainment before dinner
Post by: smokem on February 13, 2007, 09:48:25 PM: No good for us
Title: Part of the entertainment before dinner
Post by: Cameron 77C3 on February 13, 2007, 10:14:53 PM: No good for us either
Title: Part of the entertainment before dinner
Post by: RJ7868 on February 13, 2007, 10:18:56 PM: I think the vote at the moment stands two to one.

So what I will do is contact the cafe tomorrow and tell them that the 5th May will have to stand at $35 a head.

I will also change the heading of this thread back to the correct date.

Sorry for the confusion.

Post by: Cameron 77C3 on February 13, 2007, 10:44:59 PM: No problem. Ya don't know unless you ask. Thanks for all your efforts yet again ;42

Post by: RJ7868 on February 19, 2007, 08:07:22 PM: Ladies and Gentlemen,

So there should be plenty of places to deposit your deposit.....

Deposits have already starting coming in to me.

The Cafe owner has asked if I could limit the numbers to 20ish people, so thus far we still have some room for extras if you get in early.

Basically it will be first in best dressed I am afraid. Sorry;37

Post by: RJ7868 on May 04, 2007, 10:22:40 PM: BTW Ladies and Gentlemen, This is on tomorrow evening.

On a side note there is also a Football Game being held at the Gosford Stadium, so traffic may be a little busy around Gosford.

If you get up here early and need to sit somewhere and have a coffee (Jo's Coffe beans) just call me for the address. Other wise see you at Hollywood Diner.

This is classed as a small plate of food. You could keep going back over and over again IF you wanted more...

Andrew arrived just in time for the food, and we all started to feast.

I believe a great night was held by all.

A few of us headed down to Central Coast Leagues Club after dinner for a drink and dancing. I will let the other people comment on that part of the night.

THANK YOU everyone for coming and my family and I had a fantastic night.
