Dear Dining Philosophers,

ROMANIAN CUISINE
Saturday October 19th

Come join The Dining Philosophers for Romanian food on the 19th of October. WE WILL MEET AT THE RESTAURANT AT 12:00 NOON. Details follow.

Did you know that the word 'hospitality' has its origin in the Romanian word 'ospitalite'? For a taste of Romanian hospitality, we are heading to a Romanian restaurant this Saturday. Ileana Apostol is the cuisine guide. She has sent us a Romanian cuisine dictionary which you will find at the end of this e-mail. For more on Romanian food please visit the website:

www.roembau.org/roembcbr/cuisine.html

For the first time ever, we have had to limit the number of attendees, as the restaurant owner can accomodate only 15 people. For those of you who wrote to me late, and would have joined us otherwise, I have included the name and address of the restaurant, so that, if you want to, you can visit it at a later time.

Wish you a great weekend!!

Arani
