We gain strength from diversity, and actively seek participation from those who enhance it. This code of conduct exists to ensure that diverse groups collaborate to mutual advantage and enjoyment. We will challenge prejudice that could jeopardise the participation of any person in the community. The Code of Conduct governs how we behave in public or in private whenever the Linux community will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honoured by everyone who represents the community officially or informally, claims affiliation or participates directly. It applies to activities online or offline. We invite anybody to participate. Our community is open. Please read more about the GTALUG Code of Conduct here: <http://gtalug.org/about/code-of-conduct/>.

Where's dinner? --dave -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right. This will gratify System Programmer and Author | some people and astonish the rest davecb@spamcop.net | -- Mark Twain

I think everyone has settled into Kabul Express unless told otherwise. At least it satisfies the capacity and ambient noise requirements. On 9 April 2018 at 20:08, David Collier-Brown via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:

| From: Evan Leibovitch via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | I think everyone has settled into Kabul Express unless told otherwise. | At least it satisfies the capacity and ambient noise requirements. Agreed. I like KE but am getting a little bored of it. We should figure out an alternative, perhaps for next time. As a starting point FOR NEXT MONTH, I'll suggest our old favourite, Shops at Aura Food Court. This includes Kaiju. <https://wiki.gtalug.org/pre-meeting_dinner#shops_at_aura_food_court_384_yonge_street> Or perhaps Kinton Ramen -- it seems close. I've added it to the wiki page. Has anyone been? <https://wiki.gtalug.org/pre-meeting_dinner#kinton_ramen> There were some nice places nearby on Yonge but I don't know if they have been replaced by condos. We should check. Stewart: you seem to be up on these things. Anything to correct or add? --- Talk Mailing List talk@gtalug.org https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk

Kaiju has closed down. There is now a Chinese restaurant (Taste of the Orient, literally 2 weeks old), and a Korean/Japanese restaurant called Sushi & BBbop. -- Jeffrey Pikul jpikul@rogers.com -------------------------------------------- KOn Apr 10, 2018, 10:21 AM -0400, D.

| From: Jeffrey Pikul via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | Kaiju has closed down. That's too bad. I've edited <https://wiki.gtalug.org/pre-meeting_dinner> to reflect this | There is now a Chinese restaurant (Taste of the Orient, literally 2 weeks old), I've added this.

| and a Korean/Japanese restaurant called Sushi & BBbop.
We had this.
Is Aura Sushi gone?
It's gone too, but the signage for both remains. At least it's a food court, and the tables can be moved around. -- Jeffrey Pikul jpikul@rogers.com

Wus gud
There's one in my neighbourhood; agreed, it's pretty good. The frequent problem with Ramen places is that they often seem to expect tables to be filled/reserved, which isn't entirely compatible with how our folk "slouch in gradually" :-( How was the busyness of Kinton? It could be several kinds of good, and yet somewhat incompatible :-( -- When confronted by a difficult problem, solve it by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"

I love Kinton (a lot). But they're loud, and almost always very busy. People wouldn't get seated together, and might have to wait. -- Giles https://www.gilesorr.com/ gilesorr@gmail.com
