Omrith is bloody good.


The Mirash did the business and confirmed its status as a fine knocker out of a standard curry offer without being avant-garde.


We have now done all of the curry houses in the immediate vicinity of ED.


A decision was made (by me) to keep the Curry Club as the Curry Club, with a specific curry focus. However, we felt that we could on occasion patronise neighbouring areas, such as Nunhead, which is very pleasant, for a cemetary, and other providers of spicy offerings, such as Thai restaurants and stuff.


Next CC meet is mid October, date TBC as is the venue. How about Tandoori Nights? The CC's first ever meeting was there about 12 months ago.

I'd like to come along one day - but there always seem to be clashes. Given what appears to be growing numbers would T Nights be a little on the small side? AS before if you're going outside of LL I'd recommend Ganapati, tho' I've always meant to try Babur in Honor Oak but haven't yet.

The general trend re numbers is that the further afield the restaurant the fewer the attendees. Thus we have had up to 12 for Lordship Lane restaurants and as few as four for Ganapati in Bellenden.


Larger bookings for the smaller restaurants are OK, as long as people show up. No-shows have less of an impact for the larger restaurants, if you see what I mean.


I started this thread in January but we had done one or two meals at the end of 2007.


The Curry Club is officially, an institution.


Shall we revisit Tandoori Nights next month?

How about 22 October @ Surma for the next one? (Post originally suggested Tandoori Nights, but Sean McG pointed out that we hadnt been to Surma. So, Tandoori Nights in November?)


For info, I think we have done:


2007

29/11 - Tandoori Nights

19/12 - Mirash


2008


8/1- Curry Cabin

13/2 - Pistachio Club

5/3 - Ganapati

29/4 - Omrith

16/6 - Jaflong

17/7 - Dulwich Tandoori

20/8 - Coriander

17/9 - Mirash


Looking back we seem to have missed out May, I suspect because the April meal was late in the month. We also went to the Mirash twice, but the first visit was a last minute, off Forum arrangement and has been included in the list to fill a gap.


Any other recommendations? There are plenty of places that are in surrounding areas, but getting people along can be difficult. We only had 4 people to Ganapati and thats in Bellenden! The ED ones attract 10 or more people. So if we do venture out to the wilds of Forest Hill or Camberwell etc, we need to make sure that getting there and back is easy.

    • Calling All Private Chefs – We’re Looking for You! We’re currently looking for talented private chefs in and around East Dulwich (and across London) for a number of exciting upcoming bookings and events. If you’re a chef, or know someone who is, we’d love to hear from you. Please drop your name, contact info, and a quick intro below or message directly. Thanks! Anthony Bird & Co Events
    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
