Logistics for tonight:
boxo do #2 is on tonight at The Long Room.
A table for 14 has been booked under my name. I will be arriving late from work, hopefully between 6:30pm and 7:00pm. Most of you will have my cellphone number, and I will PM those who may not have it yet.
How it works:
TAPAS:
There is a $28 all-you-can-eat tapas special. I suggest we all do this - It is good value and the food was good last time we went here.
Once we get started, tell the waiter/waitress that you want to do the $28 all-you-can-eat tapas special. They will provide you with a small side plate, napkin and cutlery - you keep these for the course of the evening.
The actual food (tapas plates) can only be ordered two per person at one time. Once a round of plates is finished they are cleared, then you can order another 2 tapas plates. And then another 2 tapas plates, and so on until you are full. (I think this is to help reduce food wastage).
There is a large number of small things to try (or pick favourites) -

À LA CARTE:
If you are really really against tapas, please advise the staff
not to give you a tapas plate and order from the à la carte menu. Please note that if you eat tapas and à la carte you may be charged for both, and I will not be paying for you!

DRINKS:
At bar prices
The Long Room is a bar on weekends, so the bar is well stocked. The wine list is a little thin and on the expensive side, but should be adequate.
