Jeremiah of the great blog Granite Studio will be in Beijing tomorrow night and I am hoping that despite the short notice we might be able to pull together a small gathering of readers, bloggers and lurkers for dinner. Please contact me by email as soon as you can so I know how many seats to reserve; I will then get back to you with the location details. Dinner would start at 8 p.m., not far from Kerry Center.
These things are always a lot of fun, so I hope to see you there.

I got several emails about this and am now considering the restaurant. I hope Beijing Kaoya is okay with everyone…

Dear Richard,
I want to come, but I have to rearrange some things to make it. I will e-mail you.
All the best,
Joseph

Sorry going to miss everybody. It’s been a year since I saw you Richard.
I’ll be in Shanghai for Chinese New Year, if you happen to head that way.
Cheers to all!

Thanks for putting together a very enjoyable dinner. We should do this more often — when Lisa gets back to the Warm Embrace of the Motherland, natch, but perhaps still more often?
(Especially now that I know how to find Xiao Wang Fu. Effing bastard lying robot Google told me that it was near the Fourth Ring. Or so I will maintain, rather than admit that I can’t read a map.)
