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.

    • When I had a property with a basement there would often be a pool of water in the centre. I was told it was related to the fluctuating height of the water table in the area (se22) and would not become a problem and the only way to get rid of it would be to get the whole place completely tanked. 
    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
    • Best you post when you have an idea of dates  - waste  of everyone’s time
    • Hi there,  Looking for 10-12 jars (to start with) of local honey to fill a small section of a deli space in my work canteen. Please get in touch if you know of any community projects/small scale productions Cheers
