Forum veggie/vegan nosh up?

Definitely up for this, what time is good for people?

Rani is really good, Saf is more of en experience rather than a great meal imho.

I've suggested Tuesday as a starting point. If others can't make it, please do suggest a preferred day.

7pm?

Yeah Saf is good to try but a wee bit pretentious I think. :)

Looking forward to this!

I think best to try and make sure there are quite a few vegan options, there are some veggie restaurants that don't offer enough to give a vegan a good choice, and also should help us keep the number up.

Maybe if we have a top 5 we can make a poll to see where people want to go?

Great work on the restaurant list, Bruce and Seb! Seb, where you put 'vegan', do you mean that there are good options for vegans there?

RASA N16 The only vegetarian restaurant left in the RASA empire. Not that many options for vegans, but if you've never been, it's a must. Better Keralan food than Sagar (and Sagar is great).

List for 20th September:

1. Missmouse
   
   

Sadly, I can't make the 20th. It might not be perfect for you, either, Alex--it's LCC Local Groups Forum. Then again, I don't know if you were planning to go. :)

My Top 5 would be:

Sagar
Carnevale
Blah Blah Blah
Vitao
Diwana

I think Manna and Saf would be too pricey for a forum outing.

^was about to suggest Rasa, definitely worth a visit.

Great work on the restaurant list, Bruce and Seb! Seb, where you put 'vegan', do you mean that there are good options for vegans there?

They are the ones that I'm pretty sure have quite a few options, but it would need some calls to be made and menus inspected to get a final answer.

I think that trying to keep things cheap is the best idea.

I'm going to see what day's I'm working next week before I am able to commit.

Sagar looks great really looking forward to this now.

^ I had left them off for that reason.

How about Sunday 25 Sep if 20 Sep is not good?

I always wok saturday and sunday till 6 so it may be a rush to arrive for 7 but not imposible

Bugger, i'll be working then.

I can't make it on the 20th but if you do it again in the future then count me in!

25th would work well for me.

who else for 25th?

Another to add to the list is Bonnington Cafe, in Vauxhall.

I may well be up for this.

flickwg and edscoble - get your arses down there!

Which Sagar are we aiming to go to, the two in the west end are better for me

I'll be up for this, maybe with a +1

I don't really mind, though I really like the staff at the King St one - they took me in, with my bike, the other week when it was chucking it down. I'm sure they're nice in the West End too though!

I'm in! I prefer the Saga on King st too... thanks for the organising It A.

Provisionally in, really hope I can stay in. The King Street Sagar is fine for me. Isn't cycle parking there fairly poor? From memory, there are one or two stands nearby, so let's use those to support a bike pile.

I will recce the area this week and see if there is some better parking elsewhere. It's a busy street though so a bitch lock pile up should be fine. Hope you can come Oliver.

25th eh? I work till 6pm, so that'll work for me, thank Alex!

Cool! We're in ... depends on jet-lag though. A big maybe. We'll be back the day before so will see if we're still awake.
