We do have nice meet-up last night :) at the beginning , it's quite crazy cos we made appointment while we didn't know our face or phone number to recognize each others :lol: however, after waiting, up and down, we can find out the group :roll eyes: then we started to enjoy.... enjoy the food, have fun with the way we move to carmen bar (let B. share her experience for that :P), great time with the band, especially the romantic French song for F. :lol: .... OMG, let's others share their own feeling... I am thinking for next meet-up plan now :cool:

I really enjoyed meeting you all yesterday. Cool people, delicious food and Carmen bar was a great choice, so cool there!

Hope next time more people join us, it was fun!
