Imagine how fun it would be to meet up with friends and play Mahjong in the afternoon. The above photo shows two groups playing at Delicious Bakery on Lawndale. Mahong is a tile-based game, originating in China. At first, it seems complicated; however, once you get to know the pieces and how to play, it is easy enough to socialize and enjoy while you play. Plus, if you meet somewhere like Delicious Bakery, you can play while drinking fresh coffee and eating tasty and visually appealing desserts. Delicious Bakery first opened in Greensboro, in a tiny location on Battleground Avenue across from Lowe's Home Improvement Store. While they have doubled their space, their commitment to good desserts and building community has not changed.
Happy Saturday, and don't wait for someone to ask you to join some kind of group game, organize it yourself and do the inviting. Also, the more you get out and enjoy Greensboro (or your own city, if from elsewhere), the more you will serendipitously stumble upon groups of people engaging in fine fellowship and making memories with each other. At the very least, dash out and get a cinnamon roll or floral cupcake!
I've certainly never played the game.
