Squeel like a pig for Toy Karma

Wed Aug 03, 2011 11:16 am

OK, so maybe you shouldn't squeel that would be creepy.

There is a Chinese Place on the north end that does an amazing barbq pig, it's about 5 stops North of Rotofugi off of Argyle. The pig costs ~100 dollars so I was thinking we could do that and have a meet up of in town and out of town skullbrainers. The cost depends on how many people are down for this. It'll feed quite a few people so there will be no lack of food. If there is everything there is awesome, so we can order more. The place is called Sun Wah. If your down post a reply and we'll figure out the logistics, you do have to call and make reservations, so only reply if you are really cool with it. There is a bar a couple of blocks down from there where we can get some drinks and trade toys and hang out and what have you, so who's game?

So Toy Karma is Sat, and everyone is going to be there in the morning, how would you guys like to do Lunch Sat instead? Anyone that wants to hang out Fri night is cool, but I figured we would get more bites (zing) if it was Sat.

guess I'm back in with a guest, if anyone has a grody shogun mixed parts monster bring 'em if you wanna swap parts me and at least one other person will have one on us and one of mine is open for any swap so there's a good mix of possibilities :mrgreen:

Re: Squeel like a pig for Toy Karma

Wed Sep 07, 2011 2:46 pm

OK, so I completely forgot about this. The pig isn't going to happen. Not enough people, it costs more than I thought blah blah blah. I am still totally down for going to Sun Wah for lunch, I could eat there every day but I would be 500 lbs. So after we all get tickets and everything we can go from there. still bring trades or whatever and we will nerd out like whoa.

duck roast feast for 2!!! I may have to order one all to myself baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah duck is Fing delicious

Re: Squeel like a pig for Toy Karma

Thu Sep 08, 2011 7:56 am

so roughly when do you think we will make it down there? as I now see reservations are in order if duck is to be had

Re: Squeel like a pig for Toy Karma

There in lies the problem. You have to make reservations for duck or pig, and I have no idea what everyone has planned. I know that we'll have to wait till 11:00 to get tickets at Roto, and I don't even know when Sun Wah opens. I'm down for whatever, I know a lot of the out of towners will want to look around Roto for a while.

How about 12:30 then if we need/want to make reservations? That gives everyone like 1 1/2 hours to both BS at Roto but it's not TOO long of a time from the ticket nabbing.

I'm down for splitting a duck if anyone's in, what's the price does anyone know? If we can't get our shit together enough to set the duck up but still get reservations that's cool too.

How about an official "I WILL BE THERE FOR SURE" list so we can actually get a reservation for a set #?

Another EDIT- If my wife is going, I'll be splitting a duck with her if I can set that up so no need to hook up with me for that.

ALSO I'm willing to call and make the reservation IF we can get it set before I need to leave for work today.
