Meeting Details...<br>
<br>
Cost/Dining:<br>
The meetings are always free, but dinner is not (unless you are our<br>
guest speaker, in which case we also treat you to dinner). For<br>
Henry's Hunan Restaurant, if folks are agreeable, we'll share and<br>
dine "family" style, and split up the costs, and typical cost per<br>
person including tax and tip (but not including beverages beyond<br>
complementary tea) would be in the $15.00 to $31.00 range, and<br>
commonly around $18.00 to $27.00. Cash preferred to ease splitting<br>
up the check. One can also specifically order the dish(es) one<br>
needs/prefers (e.g. for dietary considerations) - and we also<br>
commonly order some dish(es) that may meet various dietary<br>
considerations) (e.g. vegetarian, non-pork, ...). Punctual arrival<br>
recommended for optimal dining experience, as we expect to be<br>
ordering at that time.<br>
At approximately 7:00 P.M. we start our presentation/talk, or more<br>
informal talk/discussion if we don't have a particularly<br>
presentation/talk/presenter or special guest arranged.<br>
<br>

<br>
