That was no excuse Smile I was stuck at Madam Zung's too and had to walk home through knee high water and I still made it to the Coffee Bean. Very Happy

Anyway I thought it was pretty good set up and most people could find a seat. Better than trying to fight and muscle out other people at Starbucks on Saturday afternoons. Nice talking to you all.

A nice start to a new tradition! SUNDAY Coffee Brunch! Smile The location is nice though we will try and get even more space next week, or take over the smoing room and make it the non-smoking area exclusively for us Very Happy Anyhow, great meeting you all there and look forward to continuing our coffee meeting tradition! Smile

It was nice to meet people on Sunday! Having only just arrived in Shanghai with the Typhoon nipping at my heels, i was so happy not to just be stuck in my bare apartment watching the rain!
I love coffee, so as long as i'm not stuck working Sundays every week, i'll be seeing yous again!

is tomorrow @ 4pm @ SB is On?

CB's ice-blended drinks are better taste than SB, fyi, CB is used to be much popular in Singapore/Malaysia than SB.

There are two. Sunday.( Today!) is the main Shanghaiexpat Coffee Meeting. Starts at 12 noon at Xintiandi Coffee Bean. We had a good group last week inspite of the typhoon. In this thread, its about the Xintiandi one.


The Young Expats Coffee is Saturday at 4 at SB on HuaiHai. Its in this thread
