New Venue for Ichimokukai in the New Year!"

Ichimokukai, literally "First Thursday Meeting", is the Canada Japan Society's legendary social night, held on the first Thursday of every month.

We've been going strong for over 12 years with lots of great people, door prizes and food and drink specials. Whether you're interested in informal networking, practicing your English or Japanese, or just meeting others with a connection or interest in Japan, it's a fun time had by all.

We're proude to announce the start of new season with a new venue; IZAKAYA, on Front Street. We've got a private section, drink specials under $5, and 15% off mains from the menu....plus a dj for some background tunes.

Hope to see you there! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.

This event is planned to start at 6:00 pm on Jan 3, 2008 at Izakaya.
