I decided to make a meetup for those on rabbit food diets (like me)

So if you're the kind of person who likes to eat their meat in their meat and three vegs, but not the vegs, I'd sit this one out if I were you ;)

I've booked for 17 people, and we'll be digesting the $33 set menu: https://www.vandalsydney.com.au/set-menu

This is the restaurant: https://www.vandalsydney.com.au/

They have taken down my credit card details and will charge me $33pp for no-shows, so if you click attending and then don't come, as well as being off my Christmas card list, I will hunt you down! I also can't be stuffed to deal with the logistics of taking a $5 refundable deposit off everyone, but I will confirm with everyone Wednesday morning of your attendance.

If there's more than 17 people who'd like to attend, please comment waitlist please in the post below :)

    No, I will not be attending because I'm Todd Flanders and I don't want to eat my damn vegetables!

    Has this been approved by @scotty?

      messaged him waiting to hear back but the page says to make an event first before messaging

      • dust on 25/11/2022 - 11:47

        I believe Scotty may have said there were already enough events in NSW.

        Yes there are already enough events in NSW. Including the upcoming events (plus this one) we'll be having 27 events, and 10 of them in NSW. The main issue was the budget which looks like it's going to be over $20k this year.

        However as there might not be lots of interest in plant based supper at 8PM (not expecting 50 people signing up to this event) so I'll just slip in another one.

          ah sorry I didn't see it on the main page, appreciate you letting me squeeze this one in.

          Hope people on the waiting list for Bavarian don't turn up to this for a 'free feed'

    So if no one comes you'll have to pay $561? That's a bit of a gamble this late into OzB party season.

      can cancel 24 hours beforehand if no one comes :)

    • cerealsmok3r on 28/11/2022 - 14:01

      I’m hopeful that at least the organiser can turn out :D

  • Stickmanz on 25/11/2022 - 14:54

    I'd love to attend but also:

      I kind of get your point, but with eight billion people now on this planet, we have to start thinking about making drastic changes or we may soon run out of gift cards

        I’m just being tongue in cheek and sharing some dark simpsons- I fully support being vegetarian and minimising our impact on the earth!
