Korma is pointless and futile....

nice quote

Hello

I would like to come along to the next curry club and meet some locals of Dulwich and surrounding area..I understand booze is a nice mix with curry and bottles of wine will be happily shared on the table but I will be driving and soft drinks only for me..can I come if I pay for my consumed stuff..

Hi Mary. I am afraid that we have a long standing approach of evenly splitting the bill.


We have people drinking alcohol and soft drinks, we have veggies and carnivores, so trying to identify what people have had and should pay for becomes way too complicated.


This has never been a problem on the day as there is little difference in the overall cost

Soft drinks in some of the restaurants are similarly priced to a small beer.

I once paid ?3.70 for a bottle of mineral water where a small beer was ?3.95.


People have different starters / no starters ... Veggie curries / King Prawn ... Naan bread / no bread

and we often share food.


You get to eat what you want and we share the bill.. It works and we never have any problems..

Though I should say that sometimes (for example last meeting), we went somewhere that was 'bring your own booze' and we also went to a pub before and after, so (without being presumptuous as I have been once!)it seems any alcohol costs would be low (if at all) :-)

Mary


On occassion people drive .. have 1 drink.. or stick to soft drinks.. and still share the bill.


Just to clarify.. We only split the bill + tips in the restaurant..


We pay for our own drinks in the pub pre-meal / post meal. and you do not need to come to the pub.


Some people meet in the restaurant.



We share some dishes.. like rice .. naan bread.. side dishes.. Popadoms ..

Everyone just tucks in.


We get 1 bill for the night in the restaurant. It has all the starters, mains, side dishes, bread, drinks.

Michael P. then works out the bill after adding an appropriate tip and divides it amongst those present.


That's how it has been for 8 years Curry Club has been going.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
