Post title: Restaurant info + wait until 5:20

Just a reminder:

We will depart for the BALI HAI restaurant at 5:20 to
avoid waiting on the bridge for more than too long.
Anyone after that will have to find their way...I'm sure
we can also send someone to fetch any late comers as well.

Here is a link to the restaurant from Rakuten.

OK, everybody, sorry for taking so long in making a decision. There were a couple people that were unable to make it out to Sannomiya, so I decided to stick to the original plan. Let's meet on top of the giant pedestrian overpass between JR and Hankyu stations. I'll be wearing my favorite bright red chain saw shirt so you can point me out. I believe there will be about 10 of us all together. Awesome! I look forward to meeting everybody tomorrow! The price per person is 4620 Yen, with tax.

Please call me if you have any trouble, or questions.

Cheers.

Powwow: Osaka - Japan | Suggestion for moving PowWow

Post title: Suggestion for moving PowWow

Hello everyonec

I have a suggestion I would like to discuss with our Osaka PowWow group.

A translation client that I have worked for in Kobe has offered to host next week's PowWow in the garden space outside their home in Sannomiya, Kobe. They are a Japanese and Italian couple named Sergio and Yumiko Staiano that operate an agency called LinguaPro ( [url removed] ). I have posted images of their home on my website. Here's the link [url removed]

Their home is a short taxi ride from Sannomiya station. They have offered to provide something to eat, and we attendees would be asked to share some of the costcbut it would be cheaper than the 4620 Yen at the Izakaya. Bringing a bottle of wine or some food would not be necessary, but appreciated.

Would you still be interested in attending the PowWow if the time and location was switched to 3:00 PM at the Staianofs residence in Sannomiya?

If Sannomiya is too far away for you, please tell me, and I will keep the PowWow as planned at the Izakaya in Umeda.

Post title: so do i get off at higashi umeda?

I'm not familliar with the area - should I get off at higashi-mueda?

I have no problem with the suggested location. If you drink more than three glasses then we should go with the
ݕ
As for me I'm allergic to beer (hops) so I'm wondering if the all-you-can-drink option can include cocktails and/or sake/sho-chu/wine etc.

AFAIK Watami is an izakaya; are high-school kids allowed to step into an izakaya? Correct me wrong...

Post title: How about this place?

Hello Osaka PowWow attendees!

I initially suggested a 3:00 PM start time to avoid the crowds, but few places are open at that time.
My appologies, but lets move the start time up to 5:00 PM.

I've been searching for a suitable Izakaya in the Umeda area that strikes a balance between the
right atmosphere (not too loud, not too stuffy), budget, and convenience. Most charge around 3000 to 3500
for set meals, not including drinks. Anything below this price range will place us at a with a bunch
of highschool kids though.

I found a place that seems to offer the right combination: BEER & DINING BALI HAI.
Here's the link from Yahoo:
[url removed]

They have a 3000 Yen course meal, with a ݕ option for 1400 more.
Unfortunately, the ݕ option is for ALL members only. With the ݕ option, that would come to
4620 Yen per person with tax.

Would you prefer to have the ݕ option or no?

Cheers,

Troy

Hello Osaka PowWow attendees,

I hope everyone is enjoying the summer.

The Osaka PowWow is around 3 weeks away. Currently, 7 people are definitely coming, with another 2 or 3 still undecided. If any of you plan on bringing a friend or family member, please let me know in advance.

Along with some friends, I am researching possible venues to hold the event...trying to find a centrally located Izakaya thats not too formal with a private area to meet. I should have come up with a place by the end of next week.

Cheers,

Troy

I actuallly have a friend getting married in Osaka the same weekend. The problem is I don't know anybody except her and not sure if I want to go to the wedding alone (I'll be sitting there myself and don't know anybody). Once I resolve that dilemma, I'll know if I can attend the powwow. . .

Calling fellow Kansai linguaphiles for the 1st ProZ.com PowWow in Osaka.

I will be visiting Osaka (my Japanese ̋) and thought a PowWow to meet other language professionals in the area would be a swell idea.

How about at 4:00 at an Izakaya in Umeda? Does anyone have any preferences on time? We'll decide on the time and other details as soon as I get an idea of attendance.

Please sign up if you're interested in possibly attending . Bringing a couple friends or family members is fine, but please let me know before hand.
