>> I've had a look at four venues for the Icebreaker - Foxtail, Flamingo
>> Joe's, Husk and The Library. I think that Foxtail is the best combination
>> of pricing / convenience / responsiveness.
>>
>> Foxtail is only open to the public on Friday nights, the rest of the time
>> it's a function venue attached to a much larger venue called Foxglove. Half
>> way down this page [1] there are a couple of pictures.
>>
>> Capacity is 100 people inside - it has 2 balconies that probably add
>> another 50, although we can't guarantee sunshine. It is right on the
>> waterfront so the balconies have nice views out to the harbour. It is an 8
>> minute walk from the workshop venue.
>>
>> I figure we select canapes from the function menu [2] that look something
>> like this, retaining a decent selection for those with common dietary
>> requirements:
>>
>> Canapes:
>> - Market fish ceviche, Pico de Gallo, wasabi crème, orange (gf)
>> - Cajun spiced crispy squid, lime mayo (df)
>> - Seared eye fillet, mustard crème, house pickled mustard, sourdough
>> crostini
>> - Moroccan spiced lamb skewer, raita (gf)
>> - Kumara rosti, homemade aioli, sour cherry (gf, v)
>> - Heirloom tomato, buffalo mozzarella, Aceto, basil, sourdough crostini
>> (v)
>> - Camembert bite, tomato relish (v)
>> - Beetroot macaron, vanilla creme (gf, v)
>>
>> If we order 16 pieces per person at $36pp for 40 people (640 canapes
>> total), we can get more options and better value for money, but that amount
>> of canapes will suit for up to 100 people. It's still more than 6 canapes
>> per person for 100, around 8.5 per person for our estimate of 75 attendees
>> for this event.
>>
>> This would leave enough budget for 2 drinks per person (provided as
>> tokens), as long as we select drinks $12.50 and under (which is still a
>> good range [3] of beers, wines, soft drinks).
>>
>> There is a minimum spend and a small hire fee, these commercial details
>> are in the budget [4] given that this message is on a public mailing list.
>>
>> Finally, one of the entrances to this venue is through a wardrobe
>> (Narnia-esque), just for something a little different.
