2.  Chinese New Year Celebration Lunch with LSE Alumni Association of Singapore

Dear DUAL Members,

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Do you remember having "dim sum" and nice Chinese meals at Bayswater
during your LSE days?  Do the words "Royal China" ring a familiar
bell?

The LSEAAS is proud to organise another gathering for our LSE Alumni
over this festive Chinese New Year period and cordially invites DUAL
members to join in this festive celebration.

This year of the Boar, the committee has arranged for a Chinese New
Year's lunch at a London institution, the Royal China @ Raffles. No
doubt that we are all well familiar with the 1 hr queue in the cold at
Bayswater for our favourite dim sum on a Sunday afternoon. We would
also all be familiar with the quality of food and service that was
well worth the wait.

This year, the committee is proud to offer you an opportunity to dine
at the Royal China @ Raffles over this festive period without the hour
wait and with the same food that you loved back when in London.

Details of the lunch are:

Location          Royal China @ Raffles

socialising, meeting old friends, and finding new ones with excellent
