Is there any place to get dim sum?

"To Go" Dimsum at http://www.yelp.com/biz/new-hwong-kok-san-jose

There are a few dim sum sit down restaurants that have it in San Jose, but none I really recommend.

I recommend going to Cupertino or this place called Saigon Hong Kong Seafood for dim sum. Be warned! Some restaurants in Cupertino and the Saigon place have long lines!

Imagine

San Jose doesn't seem to really have a large Chinese center for good dim sum places >.>

Also, I, too, signed up for speed dating, though only for Friday night's, person I'm attending the con with is dragging me there ;)

I'm new to fanimecon, so was thinking of volunteering and meeting new people.

How does Thursday work?

I read there is a long line for people getting the ticket? When does ticket get pass out? When is a good time to go get tickets?

on thursday morning it's like Black Friday campers so DONT go there in the morning! It's just setting up/looking for your friends/people to meet up before the busy friday - saturday - sunday con hours. Perfect time would be thursday around late afternoon or evening to get your badge within 2 hours. The time would be typically 4-8pm to get your badge that you have pre-registered for, otherwise you have to go on friday to get it at-door.

Yeah, you'd have to go to Santa Clara and Cupertino for that, which is technically still San Jose.

Fanime actually used to be held at the Santa Clara convention center from 2000 to 2003.

Nope, still haven't picked a place to eat yet.
Personally, I don't think we will all be able to pick a place that everyone will be happy with, so I am thinking that I am just going to get some food on my own before the meet up and be snacking on it at the meet up spot.

Maskenlav

usually plans never go accordingly beforehand so I bet during the actual hangout we'll all be able to agree upon a place. Now if only there was a shopping center that only consists of restaurants...haha

Imagine

As I said before, most likely the group will split into several pieces of people going to various places :P
