Meet up in NW England

[rshome123]

It's that time of year again. BritishIndian is back in the UK soon for a few weeks, and keen to sample more curry like last year at the Hilal, Timperley, Altrincham.

I have a list of dates that are convenient, for those who wish to come along. Last year there were 4 of us (BI, Alchemist, JerryM, and me). Lets see if we can get a few more this time.

July
Mon 13th - Fri 17th
Mon 20th
Mon 27th - Tue 28th

I'll suggest a date/time initially, say Tues 14th July 6.30pm ?

Please register interest on this thread, and if you can't make the 14th, suggest alternative dates and I'll try to be flexible.

It's less than a month away, so let me know sooner rather than later.

Cheers,

MR RS

Thanks for organising this MR RS.

Tuesday 14th is fine by me.

Looking forward to it, food was fantastic last year.

[Alchemist]

14th works for me too

[goncalo]

I'm tempted. Where in NW england would this be? I need to figure out accommodation and survey the flight prices :-)

[rshome123]

Hi Gonc. See the original post for where the restaurant is (15 mins from Manchester airport). It's just an evening of curry though.

[goncalo]

Thanks Rich, I'm not worried about it being just one night. I have lived in UK and from times to times I get a craving for visiting the UK (BIR craving, if ya know what I mean :-)

[pauly]

My son was wondering how you recognise each other in the restaurant, he reckons you just look for the guys with turmeric stains down their shirts.

[Alchemist]

No, just look for a table with middle aged men and no ladies!

[rshome123]

Look out for the shine on the foreheads.

[British Indian]

Shine on foreheads..........pretty much right...lol

[rshome123]

So far we have confirmed BritishIndian, Alchemist, JerryM, and me.

Still to confirm are Gonçalo and StuPot... Guys please advise.

Would anyone else like to attend? Post soon, as I want to book the restaurant.

[rshome123]

Ok, Stupot can't make it, and Goncalo hasn't responded, so I'll book the table in the next couple of days.

BI... are you bringing any family etc?

[British Indian]

A mate of mine is also in UK at the same time, and he said he would come along if he's up north. Maybe add him in. I'm sure it wont be a problem if he doesn't make it.

[goncalo]

Just to confirm, this is on the 14th right?

Goncalo

[rshome123]

Yes mate.

[Alchemist]

So, who's playing out tomorrow then, rshome?

[rshome123]

Same as last year, but BI said he might be bringing a friend. See you at 6.30pm tomorrow.
BritishIndian, Alchemist, JerryM, and me confirmed.

[Alchemist]

Good stuff. We need to remember to capture a few photos of the good this year, to keep CA happy

Just been looking through the menu. Not sure why, as I am sure I will go for the Jalfrezi (or Jalfraizee as they spell it!) along with a crispy garlic naan :lol:

[Alchemist]

Annual meeting of the NW Region members. Here are some photos for your delight and pleasure. Another great evening at the Hilal

Tandoori lamb chops. I need to have a go at these.

Great pics. Glad you all had a fun night whilst I was in the hot sweaty kitchen @ 170 degrees f!

P.s, Tandoori lamb chops in my recipe section
