It looks like the best option for us is to meet at a restaurant and then to bring these type of lessons there for a more conversational back and forth. More folks appear interested in that type of activity. At that time we will conduct a survey and see what folks want to do for the next meet up and so on.
Toward that end, I am recommending the new restaurant, "Sake Cafe - Japanese Hibachi and Sushi Bar" in Wethersfield as our next meeting place.

    I was surrounded by more Japanese speakers than the previous meet ups I've gone to, so I worked on my listening. There was great conversation with my table about Japanese news, History, and dialects. Ron was very generous and gave out some Japanese instruction material for myself and KG. Ron talked about doing an event to accommodate a much larger group. We discussed ideas for future meet ups, and I'm looking forward to seeing more JIG members at the next event.

       It was my first time attending to a meeting and I was a little nervous, but I'm so glad I did :o) People were very nice and my husband and I both enjoyed the company. I'm looking forward to a next meeting.

       All the food looked yummy, I know what I tried definitely was. I must try something new the next time I go.

       Having Japanese members at the meeting made it much better than usual. 
    •  I went to the restaurant but there was nobody from the group there and they had no record of the reservation.
