Trying to get some of my girls on board to pick another restaurant (keeping fingers crossed for Sura Thia or Venus) for another night during the week, maybe Wednesday or Thursday, but I really like the idea of putting a group together. Anyone up for Sura or Venus one of those nights?? It would be me and 4 of my girls to start.... we should just take over one of the places with our fabulous Yelpdom.
