I have started this meetup to create a place where intermediate, advanced, or native speakers can go and speak entirely in Chinese. Sure, you …

Generally a good pizzeria or a typical Italian restaurant in NYC will be the venue. A bar will always be present so you can join us just for a drink even if, believe me, you do not want to miss the food!! This is a work in proj …
