Start the new year in style at the 2008 JETAA Shinnenkai!

We are excited to make this a one of a kind event as we enjoy delicious Thai food, bottomless drinks, and free karaoke!  The wonderful folks at the Tawon House know how to host a party, serving up family recipes throughout the evening including:

-Sea Bass
-Green Bean Wok
-Chili Crusted Calamari
-Deep Fried Tofu (like agedashidofu, mmmm....)
-Coconut Milk Soup w/ Chicken or Tofu
-S&P Gulf Prawns
-Ginger Duck
-Tawon Noodles
-Fried Bananas w/ Coconut Ice Cream for Dessert!


Vegetarian options will be available.  Hungry yet?

"Nomihoudai"
Does this word evoke a warm fuzzy natsukashii feeling?  Maybe it's more like an aching nausea.  Either way, now you can relive those crazy nights of endless nomimono again.  The price depends on how many people participate, so indicate your interest on the survey.

Karaoke!
Yes, that's right folks.  Later in the evening we'll break out the karaoke system with thousands of selections (Japanese and English) for us to sing the night away to.  Don't worry, for those who can't stand to hear again Bohemian Rhapsody and other "favorites" sung so often back in Japan, karaoke will take place at the *end* of the night, giving you plenty of time to get your food and drink on before the karaoke action gets going.

Schedule
7:00 Appetizers and mingling
8:00 Main Course
9:00 Prize Drawings, Announcements, Randomness
9:30-ish Karaoke begins

The Bottom Line
Dinner: JETAA Members $12; JETAA Friends $15
Drinks:  Nomihoudai $12-16 TBD; Cash bar will be available

If enough people pitch in, a "party shuttle" will be available to collect and drop off those who don't want to drive.  See the survey!

Questions? 
Contact Jarod Bishop:  newsletter@jetaaportland.com

We will have a short JETAA Meeting at 5pm before the party.  You're welcome to check it out.

See you there!
