[Vnbiz] [Upcoming Events - vnbiz gathering in SAIGON

Mon Nov 13 21:06:13 PST 2006

Dear chi Le Dieu Anh and all,

Yes, I agree with chi Le Dieu Anh' s recommendations:-

- The type and number of venues: type will need is clear and the number of the venues mentioned are enough. We need to pick-up the most suitable one. If we choose the Van Xuan restaurant, please let me know and I shall try to get a reasonable discount.

- Registration: CACC please get the registration sheet attached ASAP filled-in and sent to chi Hong Nhung straight away.

- The time permit: We have not got much time left so we need to get things done as quick as possible. Can we offer the deadline for registration?

Cheers!

Dao Xuan Lam

>> 2.3 Van Xuan restaurant on Pham Ngoc Thach street, district 3: it is OK both

>>
>> 2.4 The Popular Ngon on Nam Ky Khoi Nghia street, district 1: it is right at

>> or The Re-Unification Hall): The space is limited since al ot of clienets in

>>
>> 2.5 Lau De at the T-Juntion of Ho Xuan Huong and Truong Dinh street,
>> district 3: If there is a large presence there would be a sitting
>> arrangement problem. It is a noisy and moked location. May be not so many
>> other CACC like this  style, I think.
>>
>>

>> Any other CACC' s contributions/ ideas/ recommendations are welcome.

>> Dear chi Dieu Anh and CACC...
>> I'm so sorry for delaying my response... Actually I have made a 'check it
>> out" at some of Saigon-many-cafe to find a place to suggest for our' 2006"
>> gathering.
>> Here's my recommendations :
>> - Dong Ho cafe: Near Ky Hoa area, district 10. Have any CACC been there? You
>> should be surprise about its area.. i guess it is even larger than truong
>> Dai hoc Khoa Hoc Xa Hoi & Nhan Van. It's like a big garden and there's even
>> a lake reflecting cute coconut umbrellas on it.... Kind of outdoor and
>> nature-friendly place from my point. However, the service is not
>> excellent.....
>> - A Oi cafe: Cozy inside and refreshing outside. A Oi is kind of garden-cafe
>> which is in range with Tuong Niem, Vo Thuong..  Very nice interiors but not
>> a restautant so, no good food but probably a place for good talk.... :)
>> Other place can be Binh Quoi, Thanh Da as various choice of Vietnamese food
>> and drink (!!!) and natural surroundings. Or if we really go into
>> restaurants there are a few like Van Xuan on Pham Ngoc Thach, Cay Khe and
>> Doan on Le Quy Don.... Or how about the popular Ngon?
>> Or if we all want Lau de let's get to Truong Dinh anh Hoanh et anh Shane
>> nhe'!!!
>> :p
>> What do you think?
>> That's for venue. I want you guys please to contribute your opinions about
>> when you want to meet on Nov 22, what you want to do (should we do something
>> surprising?), or if we should do it like a Saigon Dzo^! dinner (:p)... Or
>> anyone want to suggest another place?
>> Please email me at nhuung at gmail.com if you guys can join this gathering. I'm
>> going to meet anh Tu as he suggests to give a big hand.. Thanks a lot for
>> that anh.... I hope to see you all there...
