Siam Noodle Party

Last night’s AFC Dining Club at Siam Noodle was a homespun experience, with members getting a lot of attention from the wait staff. The food was hot (spicy) and filling. It’s a go-to favorite for many at AFC. Members also decided the next destination for Feburary (probably the third week of the month again). It’s Adobo Grill, 1610 N. Wells in Chicago. More details to come!
