The unidentified attendee thought the table centerpiece was a hoot!
A guest appreciated the See’s candy. They also suggested that Meng Horng be invited to present his slide show of the April 2024 Total Solar Eclipse as a future luncheon program (or part of one). I checked with Meng and he would be willing to make that presentation.
October 14 2024 Luncheon
Below is the Analysis of Comment Cards from October 14, 2024 SIR Branch 8 Lunch Meeting.
There were two cards turned in by two members. Neither member gave an attitude.
Food received two comments. The food was great, the meal was OK.
Both commenters lauded the service staff for being courteous, friendly and helpful while providing great service. This led to the most interesting comment; that the wait staff arranged for a new member to eat in isolation in the room used by the BEC, before he returned, masked, to the dining room. This allowed him to reduce his exposure to pathogens and thereby reduce the risk of infecting his susceptible spouse
September 9 2024 Luncheon
Below is the Analysis of Comment Cards from September 9, 2024 SIR Branch 8 Lunch Meeting.
There were four cards turned in by four members. One member was “Impressed”, one was ”A bit annoyed”, and two gave no attitude. .
Food received four comments. The lunch was good, it was good but awkward to eat, The dessert topping was weird. Meal was served very late.
A member was very disappointed because he ordered shrimp but got chicken, even though he asked if the “Fish” icon was for shrimp. One of the cashiers said he did not know which icon was for the shrimp and (seemed) indifferent to the question. Another staff member said that the “Fish” icon was for shrimp.
The sound system is great, although the remote mikes were having echo problems.
The Branch presentation was informative.
The most interesting comment asked how many of our 227 members actually participate in other activities than lunch?

Food received four comments. The salmon was terrific or good. The salad was the best ever. The banana cream pie was excellent.
The sound system got three comments, with one saying it was great and two saying it was good. One suggested moving the speakers back so they did not interfere with the view of the screens.
Service was rated as great with another thanking all the staff.
A member thought the talk was very interesting.
The most interesting comment was that the “End Of Life” dialogue should stop because it is not a positive concept and doesn’t belong in a luncheon format.
SinSIRly,
