Pratyoosha Gurazada said 2 years ago
Where in dubai mall??

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
@Pratyoosha - good question! Frankly, this is the first time I'm coming to Dubai, so can you suggest a place? A cafe maybe?

Siji Sundaran said 2 years ago
Dubai Mall can be quite messy for first time visitors.... very huge place.... probably somewhere smaller like IBN Batuta... we can differentiate with courts for easy reference.. like India Court.... Cinema etc.... watzzz ur take on this....

Patricia Torres said 2 years ago
Can we please do 9th dec!! Also dubai mall will really be busy!! So I suggest cafe more at gold and diamond park! I can reserve a table early!

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
@Patricia I agree, you would know best. Does everyone else agree? :-)

Swati Randev-Verma said 2 years ago
Guys, Ibn Batuta soooooo far off that most people won't make it! Dubai Mall is rather central. How about we meet at Caribou (above MAC, Bobby Brown)? Or even Starbucks? I'm putting together a Twtvite, so lemme know so I can add the exact location.

Also, are you guys on twitter?

Swati Randev-Verma said 2 years ago
Cafe More on SZR is a brilliant idea! :D I'm up for it!

What time do you guys want to meet up? 6pm? Do let me know and I'll add it to the invite on Twitter. Hopefully we'll get more people to join in.

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
yea me too feel that ibn battuta is a bit far frm the city!!! Dubai mall is a bit crowded but large and attractive place... i agree with patricia!!

Patricia Torres said 2 years ago
Dubai mall is crowded and first timers will definitely get lost!! Cafe more at garhoud! Cafe more at shk zayed! Or french bakery on 1st interchange!! There is also cafe more at murooj rotana opposite dubai mall!! There is never anyone there!! So that's a good option!! All agree?? Pls pls change the date to 9th dec!! Pls!

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
i agree wid the location... but date change is not a good idea because friday is a comfortble day for everyone... lets go on wid it!!

Patricia Torres said 2 years ago
Then - is friday morning a possibility??

Swati Randev-Verma said 2 years ago
Oooh...! Friday morning is a no-can-do for me. See if you guys are ok with it. I can bow out. But honestly, driving in from Ajman to Dubai on a Friday *morning* is just not something I can get myself to do! :P

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
tats a good option indeed... but we should consider the Friday prayer too... that'll b a rush i think! However Friday will be convenient!

Swati Randev-Verma said 2 years ago
For those of you on twitter, do connect! I'm at: @silv3rglee

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
me too coming from Ajman... its not a big deal to reach dubai on friday morning as there'll be no traffic on Fridays.. still adjust the tym according to everyone's convinience!!!

Traffic isn't the issue - willpower is! :D

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
hehe... if there is a will, there is a way!!! i'm ok wid anytime on Friday!!!

Patricia Torres said 2 years ago
Friday morning there is no traffic on the roads at all!! We could meet in more cafe on garhoud... If most people are from shj or ajman!! I'm good for that!! Friday 11am? 12?? Or even 1?? I could pop in to say hello at least!! I can't do evening on 10th at all! So if all are good with friday evening... Then I'll have to miss :-(

Patricia Torres said 2 years ago
If morning is yes!! Then I don't even mind Mirdiff citi center... If that's good for all!

Swati Randev-Verma said 2 years ago
I'll wait for a consensus till tomorrow, and will send out a Twtvite for others to attend. Maybe Pratyoosha should try and figure this out...? :)

Swati Randev-Verma said 2 years ago
Guys, any updates here? Are we still meeting up?

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
Friday 12 noon everyone?

Pranay said 2 years ago
Hey Guys.. ill be attending too :D Really looking forward to it. But Renie, its better we decide an actual date/time.. to avoid confusion later on!

Pranay said 2 years ago
But Hey, Dubai Mall sounds real cool! If its Renie's first visit here, we should take him to dubai mall.

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
Please see the updated place and time folks! :-)

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
@Pranay - I saw it yesterday. You need a car+gps in that place!

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
well,,, we'll meet up der den!!!!

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
well,,, we'll meet up der den!!!!

Pranay said 2 years ago
Hmm... Sounds good! Any agenda..?

Mohammed Ibrahim said 2 years ago
but we should surely hav a break at the Friday prayer time... i think the cafe wil also close at that time.. thats the usual thing in here....

Patricia Torres said 2 years ago

Awesome! :-) Will send out the reminder email tonight.

Pratyoosha Gurazada said 2 years ago
ok guys! Shall be thr at 11 am.. excited to meet all of u:)

Pratyoosha Gurazada said 2 years ago
a small suggestion, we shud prolly have it around 1 30 or 2 in the aftn, the friday prayer time will cross and ppl from ajman can make it and its not really evg, having a late friday lunch is common for all of us..newy its just a suggestion..
