Some interestig stats. Over the last 2 years we have visited the following restaurants:


Mirash - 5 times

Swadesh - 4 times

Surma - 3 times

Jaflong - 3 times

Tandoori Nights - 3 times

Veer Zara - 2 times

Curry Cabin - 1 time

Ganapati - 1 time

Omrith - 1 time

Indian Mischief - 1 time but only 2 people turned up so we didnt bother

Dulwich Tandoori - 0 times. No idea why.


NB - NO RESTAURANTS SHOULD CLAIM THAT THEY ARE THE "CURRY CLUBS FAVOURITE" ON THE BASIS OF THESE STATS. THE CHOICE OF RESTAURANT. MONTH BY MONTH, IS ENTIRELY UNSCIENTIFIC.


What we have learned:

There is no "Best", everybody has their favourite

People say they want to go to restaurants that are further afield, but generally dont turn out if it isnt on Lordship Lane

Curry Club regulars are generally carniverous. With a few honourable exceptions.

Looks like we need to give Dulwich Tandoori and Curry Cabin more of a go

Veer Zara is our least favourite - too much salt and curry powder

Mirash is my favourite, which is why we have been there 5 times. I also like Tandoori Nights

Marvellous!

Lovely evening...a big welcome to the newbies Charlie and Paul, who joined in straight away with all the silly comments and jokes...here's to hoping Charlie trusts us enough next month to leave her car at home. I enjoyed the company of all the veterans as usual...you know who you are. Big hugs. x

I promise not to drive next time!! Thanks for all making me feel so welcome. It was a giggle!

If it hasn't been a school night, I'd have come for a drink too - sorry Georgia. Next time :)

Have a great weekend all. See you tomorrow T.

A great evening. The 2 Newbies were sat chatting away to each other, before the rest of us got there, four of us having been detained in the pub, ahem. Eight people sat down to eat.


I thought that the food was really very good, big portions and great value.


No Mick Mac, No Gingerbeer. We were collectively bereft, briefly.


Next Curry Club meeting on Thursday 7th of March. Lets try the Dulwich Tandoori http://www.dulwichtandoori.co.uk/


Meet for drinks at the Draft House at 7.15pm and then Dulwich Tandoori at 8.00pm.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
