11/8 7pm Friday Bar Calico lounge conversations

Hi. I personally don’t find bar hopping can make some deep connections. Got inspired by Timeleft dinner where 6 strangers have dinner together, let’s do a lounge bar conversation instead of dinner. Let’s have some deep conversations and chill in this lounge bar.

11/8 6:30pm , 7:30pm Two Events! Space Billiards, Space Karaoke

Hey there, NYC meetups!

Two events back to back! (Hopefully)

Event 1: Space Billiards 6:30-7:30pm

Chill vibes, great lighting. I love going here for billiards with friends and new friends alike. If you’re wanting to do billiards, I recommend planning to meet there at 6:00-6:15 so we’re not running late. Note: I’ll probably get lost trying to find it and I’ve been there 4-5 times.

Event 2: Space Karaoke, 7:30-8:30pm

Conveniently one floor down from Space Billiards, there’s Space Karaoke. I’ve personally never done karaoke before. At the same time, I want to try new things and I’m lowkey scared shitless.

I’m not sure how busy karaoke gets but there’s usually room at billiards. We’ll get a table/room when we get there and if there’s no room at karaoke at 7:30, we’ll play another hour of billiards or eat early at a nearby food spot.

If interested, please comment whether you’re interested + can make Event 1, Event 2, or both!

[Club Sandwich] Sandwiches and libations at Parisi Bakery & Deli + Village dives this Saturday (November 9th) at 2:00p (SoHo/East Villiage)

Hey folks - This Saturday, November 9th, at 2:00pm Club Sandwich is hosting its 16th meetup at Parisi Bakery & Deli and will then romp through the village for drinks and social time throughout the afternoon. Parisi has been called out in past meetups as a must-visit spot, so we’re pumped to finally make it there. And that all goes without saying, it has been quite the week and we could all benefit from some time to enjoy a nice sandwich, several libations, and some good company. We’re all just humans after all…

The usual disclaimer…. Club Sandwich is a casual, monthly, social meetup designed to try new sandwiches, explore new neighborhoods, and meet new people. This will be our 16th meetup and it’s pretty consistently offered a chill way to meet new folks, break some bread, and get into whatever shenanigans you’re into (within reason). It’s chill; it’s low-key; it’s tasty. If this sounds like your thing, drop a comment to be added to the Reddit group chat! And if you're already in the Club Sandwich Discord, you're all set.

NOTE: Parisi is CASH ONLY!!! BRING CASH IF YOU WANT A SANDWICH.

///

📂 The Plan

Parisi sandwiches, East Villiage dives, good times.

  • 2:00 - 2:15p — Arrive at Parisi Bakery & Deli
  • 2:15 - 2:45p — Order sandwiches
  • 2:45 - 2:50p — Find a spot in Sara Roosevelt Park to chow
  • 2:50 - 3:30p — Eat sandwiches, enjoy what looks to be a beautiful fall day
  • 3:30 - ???? — Move on to our first watering hole! Spring Lounge, Milano’s, Clockwork, Library, Parkside??

🥪 The Sandwich

As noted above, Parisi is a spot that has been recommended by many CS members, so we’re keen to make an official visit. Parisi is a family-owned establishment that has been serving up goods since 1903, so they’re probably doing something right! (Apparently Frank Sinatra bought bread from here back in the day?)

Not surprisingly, we’re told the bread is a show-stopper—foundational for any high-quality sando. You can catch a glimpse of the operation from this Food Network potato-quality throwback clip. Layer on top classic Italian fixings and we’re on the path to greatness. Helen Rosner, staff writer and food critic at The New Yorker, says that Parisi makes one of the best Italian sandos in NYC. Apparently “The Dennis” is their most hyped sando—chicken cutlet, prosciutto, and mozzarella cheese—is other-worldly; gimme now. Honestly though, everything looks great though.

There’s really not much else to say, other than we’re all in for a real sandwich treat.

💃 The Shenanigans

It has been a long week and we’re keeping it simple: sandwiches + drinks. Where that leads us, God only knows. I can assure you, we’ll let some steam out.

Plan to hit various classic bars throughout the afternoon and evening after getting a solid sandwich foundation.

❓ The FAQs

Alrighty, for those of you who have not attended a Club Sandwich meetup, here are a few questions that often arise…

  • Is Parisi cash only? YES!!! BRING CASH
  • What is Club Sandwich? It's a monthly, low-key meet up for anyone and everyone to check out new sandwich spots, visit new neighborhoods, and meet new people. Who doesn't like the simplicity of a great sandwich, conversation, and exclusive club?
  • Does Club Sandwich only to sandwich-related meetups? No! We also do non-sandwich events like hikes outside of the city, club nights, concerts, picnics, apartment hangs, and more… Once you’re in the club and in the Discord, you get access to all the fun happenings among club members.
  • Where's the member Discord link? Come to the event and you’ll get a link! Discord is for active members to help keep the online sandwich community lively! No lurkers.
  • I can't make it at 2:00p, but want to show up later. How will I know where you are without the Discord? Drop a comment on the post and we will send you a link to the Reddit group chat, which is another way we communicate with attendees.
  • May I bring my friends? Yes! Club Sandwich is for everyone as long as they're nice, welcoming, and respectful to everyone.

Can’t wait to see a bunch of new and returning faces this Saturday! See y’all soon! Bye bye bye ✌️🧀 🥪

Hindi/Urdu Stand-up comedy open mic- NYC

I am going to start an open mic for those who would like to hone their jokes in Hindi/Urdu

I am a comic who just moved to the states and found out despite a big hindi/urdu speaking population, we don't even have a single open mic here.

The first step is meeting and getting to know each other.

HMU if you are interested- we will create a group chat and then plan an in-person meeting.

Place/Timings will be discussed on the group chat :)

Let's do some indoor bouldering at VITAL Brooklyn (Williamsburg) at around 1PM on Saturday 11/09! Anybody brand new or experienced is welcome to join. Bouldering is rock climbing with no equipment - all you need is to rent a pair of shoes and you are good to go. VITAL Brooklyn is an incredible bouldering space with outdoor climbing on the roof.

A day pass at the gym is $35, and shoe rentals if needed are $5.

We've been organizing this meetup for over 2 years and it has been a lot of fun! There are usually between 20-30 people who attend. We spend about 2 hours at the gym and then some folks usually grab drinks afterwards. Just post here if interested and I'll add you to our group chat.

NYC nanotech meet up?

I randomly came across the Nanotech Meetup NYC flyer on Nov 21 2024 at the Harlem tower. Is anyone going?

I studied nanotech in school and have been laid off for a while so think it might be a good networking opportunity to meet new people. Anyone ever go to one of these and can share their experience with me?
