the place is always full of people and you need to queue outside to get places so i doubt we can sit there for long for a chat.

so we need to set a time. what time would be the best? 8pm?

How about the branch in Blackfriars? It seems they do take bookings. Lets fix it at 8pm on 15th Jan then. Unless if anyone else has got other ideas.

I was just asking about the halal issue because I'm thinking of posting this up later. At the moment, I don't think the four of us have got any problems with this?

*didnt see geminist post*

brunswick :
the place has insane queues during peak time. around 8-ish usually crazy queue and plus 15th is on friday+its usually noisy there as well. may i suggest we eat there then move on to somewhere else if you guys want to eat there.


if the place needs to be russell square, then i think strada(italian) is more quiet. but as far as 'pack-ness' its slightly less. or a greek place near brunswick sq, but i dont know how the food is.

there's also a few pubs around the area as well...

Blackfriars:
i should be able to make it.
let see what others say

I haven't problem with non-halal food. 8pm sounds just right, in case me course running late, although I doubt. Could join you guys up until 11-ish at latest as I'm still going for course on Saturday & Sunday morning ! So either of you can decide where to meet up and I'll be there !

i am up for anything will bring my friend along

oo my fren used to work there.

I wonder if I could meet you guys up at the tube station ? I haven't been to the restaurant before......

if its the bloomsbury one it is quite near to the russell square tube station but it will be full especially on friday night...

Guys i just noticed something... the blackfriars branch has a limited menu set. no penang prawn mee so you guys still up for th blackfriars branch? its not as accessible as the bloomsbury ones as blackfriars station is closed.

im ok, both sides. bloomsbury its practically beside my uni.
i should be able to get to blackfriar if needed.

Got to have plan B ? Anyway, as long as I catch up with you all at particular tube station, then will be fine.......I don't travel to London much, you see.

well, it all depends where the final destination is. im sure meeting up in the tube is fine for us.

just 4 of us going atm ?

looks like only the bloomsbury branch is having the penang prawn noodle after checking the menus on other branches.

I am ok with both but our purpose is to taste the delicious prawn noodle right?

well, my purpose is just to meetup and chill
personally i dont find their food that special. it more or less lies in between good and eatable
or maybe im just dificult to satisfy

u go back malaysia and eat all u want

we shall see what geminist say about this before deciding. food or place to chill?

anyways OT abit, mr lappy,can i borrow your 18-55 for a while? got some experiment to do :3 since you no need to use it when you have the 18-200 and 24-70 or you can donate it to me as a charity

Let's just meet up for a drink and just relax for a bit. It would be nice if we can get something to eat though!

so its blackfriars?

it seems to be quite new :3

OT: maybe we could head to Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese for a drink
Charles Dicken used to frequent the pub i heard

and its on Fleet Street, one of the famous street mentioned in a couple of famous novels

just a suggestion. if there is a muslim joining then i think this is not appropriate...

Err...if it's not for dinner, i probably ended up eating sandwiches lol. well, i don't think i would be drinking as i said before, still going for courses the next day.

drinking is optional depends on everyone. lol.

the nearest tube i think is st paul since blackfriars station is closed?

so what's the verdict everyone?

Well, let's meet up at Blackfriars at 8pm for dinner and maybe a drink (panda00 - drinks can be non-alcoholic) afterwards.

Luckily it seems to be within walking distance from Temple. I'll give the restaurant a call tomorrow to get a table for five.

ok so its dinner at blackfriars at 8 on the 15th jan
after dinner > prob a drink somewhere

did i get it right?

btw, panda00 needs some1 to bring him there since the station is closed.

panda : where/which line(tube) will u be coming from?
