It looks like los angeles has several Ethiopian restaurants to choose from so I figured we could meet at a different location every few weeks or so!

Even a weeknight is ok because you don't need a sitter and wh …

Well, obviously the idea of the group has changed tremendously over this past year. Now it's a whole lot more about anything (even remotely ;-) related to any culture -- and restaurants, concerts and movies.

I still like the idea of individual language exchanges - so if you would like to learn/practice/improve a language, check out the list of our members to figure out with whom …

Because reservations are often required and out of respect for the restaurants that save us the tables,  only people who show up after R …

If not, would you like to learn how to do so? Anyone can eat, but …
