I wonder if Michel van Tricht knows Nathanael is coming. he'll better double the portions
Walters' mailed me a proposal for adding to the wine and cheese, upon which I agreed and now await a prize. But that will depend on the number of the group that are participating in that instead of having lunch on their own. So please let me know if you are NOT going along to Walters' for the tasting asap. For those who already did, consider it registered already.
-carpaccio from rind with rucola and balsamico(dressing)
and/or
- bouillabaisse from NorthSea-fish with croutons and rouille.
and
- cheese platter by Cheesemaster Michel van Tricht
all accompanied by a selection of wines by sommelier Walters. _________________

Ok guys, just booked our hotel room. Prices are soooo expensive right know, I guess because of the festival !
Anyway, we'll be staying at the Campanile Hotel, 5km away from the city center, but that's no problem, since we've got the car. Price is 55€ for a double room. If sb's interested, there are still some rooms left.
About the program, I'll say we'll be there at 10:30 and follow the group all day long, restaurants included. We'll see about the after party, it depends on where and how long
Dutch please notice me when you get our 2 tickets, I'll paypal you the amount asap.
Anyway, can't wait to see you all !
A bientôt
Nath
PS: about the nationalities, I'm French (but I think you all know that!) and my lovely wife is Romanian. I think she has a SST account (Andycutu) but hasn't used it in a long time.
We both speak English and German (well, she does... I can order cheese and beer, that's quite enough ! ) _________________ Mighty Pirate Captain and happy dad of a little cube cheese |

Got your tickets in C-block a bit further up than Reinadarknova and Cpmonster.
Looking forward to meet the both of you.
As they have to be scanned I'll keep all tickets in my possession until the entrance to the concert.
I'll PM the paypal data with the total price. _________________

Oh Tinkerbelle, that's such a pity

10.30u gathering at the Marriott Gent, Korenlei/Dabstraat, Gent
11.00u closed meeting/signing session with guests of WSA (You al know by now who that might be, although it's not guaranteed ALL will be there,we do have some bad experience with Howard Shore as you might know)
12.00u free time for lunch on your own OR join in on an exclusive cheese- and winetasting replacing lunch at Walters' . For a group up to 20 people we have the possibility to have an exquisite tasting of the cheeses from Belgian Champion and CheeseMaster Michel van Trigt. Walters' will add some meat/fish to make it like lunch. Walters' is a highly acclaimed winerestaurant in Gent. Exclusivity comes with a price though, according to what wine you choose account for: € 25-35 p.p.
14.00u Guided citytour (1,5h.) Depending on number of entries this will be one guide (english) or two guides(english+dutch/german) € 5-10 p.p.
15.45u Time for a drink and rest, meeting with people from Maintitles.net (MT) at one of the Gent finest beerhouses.
17.00u Dinner at Yanko, Henleykaai,Gent This restaurant will be opened at that time for our group only (perhaps in combi with MT). Yanko is only a 10 minutes walk from the venue. Good price/quality value with average prices (main+desert,wine,coffee) € 35. They will play soundtracks
19.45u attending World Soundtrack Awards, 't Kuipke, Gent
Stick with me 'cause I'll be having your tickets.
22.30u afterparty |
Ok, we'll be in Gent at 9.36 (other people coming from Bruxelles?) so at max 10.45 we should be at the Marriott hotel. I guess the meeting session is in the same place, right?
We'll take part at the citytour and the beerhouse visit, but I think we'll have lunch and dinner on our own (due to budget and need for meat-free food. BTW, other vegetarians in here? ).
Have you already decided something for Sunday, in alternative to the bike ride? |
