My advice is that play one new game twice rather than two different new games. I'd go with a sure-fire success like Bohnanza. If you'd like something equally interactive and social but more thought- provoking, I'd suggest Modern Art (but only if you are good at clearly explaining games). While the bits in Wasabi are nice, I find the game rather abstract and puzzly.
