Restaurant Night - Simon's Peking Duck - Reschedule 1st July

Hi Everyone.

Seonaid and I are running a Restaurant night to Simon's Peking Duck Restaurant,

Date: Friday 17th June.
Time: 7.00pm
Venue: 197b Middleborough Rd Box Hill South, 3128
Details - BYO and licensed - apparently the wine prices are quite reasonable.
Cost: Food Prices are pretty reasonable. Menu is here:http://www.simonpeikingduck.com/menu.html - $17-25 Mains, except the Duck. It's a pretty basic restaurant, decor wise- it's all about the food, which is broadly Cantonese.

THE DUCK: Simon's apparently makes some of the best Peking duck around, (despite one scathing review on UrbanSpoon :Roll:) If you want Peking Duck, it comes two ways, at $55 or $63 a bird, which will feed 2-3 People. This is a very reasonable price - comparable to Hong Kong. However, my understanding is the Restaurant needs 24 hours notice if you want the Duck. If you want Duck, you must let me know when you confirm.

This is a very busy restaurant and I understand they run two sittings. I will need to book ASAP - preferably by Thursday the 12th or Friday the 13th of this month. Please get in early if you are planning on coming. I won't book if there aren't enough numbers - I need a minimum of Six.

Note: APPARENTLY THEY DON"T TAKE EFTPOS OR CREDIT CARDS - CASH ONLY

Sorry to sound like a Nazi - I'd like this to be a nice smooth booking, I'm sure it will be a great night.

Steve.

I'm going to book tomorrow night - if you were planning on coming please confirm in the next 24 hours. We're booking a large group -( currently 11) so I don't want to stuff these guys around with trying to add numbers the day before.

OK I've booked- - There's a slight change of plan though -

The restaurant offers two sittings - 6.00pm and 8.00pm.

I've gone for the 8.00pm sitting as we won't be rushed then - the person I spoke to recommended the 8.00pm booking for a group of this size.

I hope this doesn't interfere too badly with anyone's plans.

I can change the numbers closer to the date, and I will confirm how many people wish to order duck as they do require notice for how many ducks to prepare.

Steve.
