OK. Plans have been made. Regarde:
Part one:
Dim-Sum at the New World. SWOON at the service! PROD at the unknown dish someone will invariably order! ROLL out the door afterwards. And all for some ridiculously small amount of cash. You know it makes sense.
The New World's in Gerrard Place, near the Curzon Soho cinema. I've booked a table for 15, but can expand this. The downside? I'll need NUMBERS for this part of the proceedings. If you want to come, please email or call and let me know. This kicks off at 12 midday, and goes for - oh, I dunno. A couple of hours.
Find a review here - you'll find
the place worthwhile, as long as you avoid the tripe. It's cheaper than that review suggests - dim sum always is - and their veggie selection's not too shabby either. So I've been told, anyway. There's a map reference here just in case you're unfamiliar with the area.
Part two:
Drinking at The Marquis of Granby in Chandos Place. Near Trafalgar Square. Map reveals closeness to dim sum venue; a boon to engorged stumbling everywhere. I've booked the upstairs room, though the bar's downstairs, so expect to see me everywhere. In case you're bereft of pub-identification skills, here's a picture - study well.
The pub's Victorian, quite neat and offers something other than filthbeer, in order to cater to more refined drinkers.No hot food's available on weekends, but after the amount of booze that I'm imagining people will consume, I'd be surprised to find anyone hungry. And it's a cunning ploy to get more people eating chicken feet at the earlier juncture, methinks...
And from then on? Who knows? Depending on boozing, balance and will-to-live, the night will go on to bright, youthful and beautiful locales, or fall asleep in the gutter. It's UP TO YOU! Just make sure you're part of it, 'cos the impersonality of this mail aside, I'd love to see people there - while I still can see.
Or, for the more arty approach, try this:
