I've been wanting to try Mango Sticky rice for a while now and so glad the guys decided to try the mango menu along with me at Nommé Kitchen. We had the Thailand Mango Sticky rice, Malaysian Mango Laksa & Mango Chili Chicken (not pictured), which did not disappoint. A fun lunch that ended with window shopping at the Broadway Store.
A meetup to celebrate the first anniversary of the first ever meetup of this sub. 😁
A fun evening that started with coffee and ended with a pretty fun game of Splendor.
A fun lunch with this gang. Two more missing from the picture. A game of mafia, great food and conversation. To the lunch that ended at midnight.
It was truly one happy year. One post that led me to creating a subreddit, a group chat, finding friends, creating a community and hosting meetups, I couldn't have imagined this is where it would lead to, but this has really been amazing & fun.
From meeting over coffees to lunches to watching movies to playing Mafia (thanks to u/Ad_Ketchum who so graciously hosts everytime) & boardgames to having conversations, some deep & some superficial to connecting with people with similar interests- the meetups had it all.
Cheers to all of you, for the people you met & the friendships you made through this sub.
A big thank you u/shynerd52 for creating the sub and bringing my vision to life.
Thank you u/Fine_Comfortable_348 for helping me moderate the sub. Thank you u/Various-Status-1529 for motivating me (since the first meetup until now). Special thanks to u/Immediate-Back-7235 for always traveling so, so far to join us. And thank you u/KodiPulao for this nostalgic edit!
A year ago when I created my account, little did I know I'd end up hosting meetups, meet people from across the country and make so many friends. This has been a roller coaster of a ride and I hope will continue to be one.
A few days ago I was craving a Cream of Mushroom soup with garlic bread and people just showed up on a random weekday evening, to catch up and enjoy good food together.
This was an unexpectedly fun evening that went on late into the night. There was great food, (☕ iykyk), great conversation with some of the best company. Ended the night with the Thaati Munjal Mango Malai & Kachi Keri Ice cream from Creamstone.
I'm so grateful for the community I have here. To all the people that made my first year here as amazing and life-changing as it was, you know who you are, thank you!
A Yummy Lunch (especially the unforgettable Mango Cream French Toast), some deep conversations and great company. The heat was a little deterring, yet a wonderful afternoon with these folks!
