      I've seen the place, quite small but cozy. The have an excellent selection of cheese! Hehe. For directions, it's right outside, along via Mare/ previous Agave site. They have no sign outside so be on a lookout for red garden umbrellas that have the name Pages on them. It's right beside a german resto. So there. (Pretty much got lost because there was no signage when I went there)
      I think we have to get early there so that we can ask the staff to arrange the chairs for maximum efficiency. As Doc mentioned, it's a small. I think a crowd of 20 will be a lot for its size.
    
      It looks like we won't have to worry about space. It's going to be a cozy discussion. Parang 1984 lang. ;)
    
      Helloooo!Visited the venue last weekend to confirm the reservation and dun tayo sa loob. They will try to fix the tables daw, pero medyo masikip ata if they do it...so if ever, they're just closing the inside of the store for us, and we can just fix our chairs para mas madali tayo magka-usap. :)
Yes, chill and cozy discussion this weekend nga! :) See you guys. :D
      Hi pips!!! Saw the site! Really good! Yung nlng parang too expensive for meh!! Pulubi lng po...hahahahahaha!Anyway, c you guys... khit I wasn't able to read the book. What to see you guys in action.
      sang malapit yung venue? s my gilid ng shang? kahalera b xa ng CPK? s my bandng papuntang fully booked?
    
      Dun nga. Second resto after coffee bean. Ala pa silang signage last time i was there. Pero their glass window has a quote from breakfast and tiffany's and you can't miss the red umbrellas with the word "pages" written on them.
    
      Congrats, Charles! Enjoyed the discussion. At dahil di ko pa nake-claim ang Krispy Kreme ko, kelangan mo uling umattend pa ng isang discussion, haha! J/k. :))It was nice to finally meet you Ycel and Questian/Julie! See you again next F2F! :)
And thanks Ms Ronnie for the boomerang! It shall be used as a bookmark, hee. And for the sweets, too!
      ^yah i'll try to be there next month..hehehehehe...ang saya!! ang sarap.mkining sa batuhan ng ideas nyo! sooo coool!!!
    
      Congrats, Charles! (Thanks for the chocolates too!) I really enjoyed the discussion. Now I know that people like killing me.. jk [Angus, napronounce ko tuloy yung jk as jk =))] And I'm so glad to finally see Ycel again and Questian! Looking forward to seeing you all again next F2F! ^___^ And Ms. Ronnie! Thank you so much for the boomerang magnet (I put it up on the ref so feeling ko tuloy pumunta talaga akong Australia haha) and the coasters (they were coasters, right?) and the macarons! They were soooo good!
Love you guise <3
      Another fun discussion with the group! (I had fun "killing" everyone. *sinister laughter*)Congrats, Charles! It's a lively discussion. And thank you Ms. Ronnie for the coaster! :)
      Grabe ka Anna, pag pinapamulat na ni Charles yung "killer", mukha ka talagang papatay ng tao, hahaha! :))
    
      Monique: Patagilid at pailalim ba tumingin? hahah! Kailangan kasi di gumalaw masyado para di halata. Kaya ayun tuloy. :)))And, in character lang! :D
      Thanks again, Charles! And also to everyone who joined the discussion, online and offline. :) I had a great time, as always.Gusto ko sana maging killer sa game, though! Haha. :D
      Congrats and thank you, Charles. It was a surprisingly fun and informative discussion. And namiss kong maglaro nung killer/mafia game (mas masaya kapag may drinks, hihi). We hope to see you soon? :)Oo nga pala, was the chef inviting us again for another book discussion at Pages?
      Angus: yes, he was! Gusto daw nila yun. :D I have their card; I think we can have that as another go-to place kung kelangan natin ng venue. :) (Although mag-iipon muna. Kasi medyo pricey ang food nila. ^^ )
    
      Tina: Oo nga eh, haha. Nasira ang budget ko for this week, hihi. So they didn't mind the noise (?) or the rearranging of tables and chairs? Maybe if any of the books in their menu becomes a book of the month, then we already have a venue for strong consideration!
    
      Because they have a Shakespeare menu maybe we can do a Shakespearean month? HeheCongratulations, Charles!
      hnd ko sinilip yung menu.. wahahahahaha.....pero guys, natuwa aq doon sa "Who is the Killer?" Game...sana sa next month we have that ulit..

F2F17: Smaller and Smaller Circles by FH Batacan
May 19, 2013, Sunday
2:00-5:00pm
Pages Deli, Shangrila Mall
The venue is at the ground floor of Shangrila, near Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. It's a bit small, but we have reserved the inside of the restaurant for the discussion.
Also, it's a very bookish place! Here are some blog posts about it:
* let's eat: pages deli
* Pages Deli: The Way to Every Bookworm's Heart
There is a Php 5000 consumable for the reservation, so we can have late lunch there or something siguro?
Will send invite in a few minutes!Event invite sent!
