Dear Pat,

I hope you are doing well! It is so good to hear from you, and I am glad you enjoyed your holiday. As you already know, my birthday is coming up, and I want to choose a restaurant to throw a party next week. I was hoping to get more details on the restaurant you visited recently that you were raving about on our last call to consider it as my party’s venue.

I plan to invite our friend group from university and two of my coworkers. I want it to be a Barbie-themed party, and we will be dressed in all pink for it. I didn’t quite catch the restaurant’s name last time, so I would be grateful if you could share it along with the location, and instructions on how to get there.

In addition, I remember you mentioned that the Indo-Chinese dishes were scrumptious, including Manchurian and Hakka noodles. I love fusion cuisine but would also like to know if you’d recommend other dishes. We have pretty similar taste buds, so I think I would enjoy them if you did.

Thank you for your advice. I hope to see you at my party next week, I promise it will be fun!

Yours sincerely,

Rinku
