LONDON 2nd JULY: DINNER!!

As per the other thread guys we have several suggestions......


Quick cab ride (?) to:

http://www.timeout.com/london/restau...4/wapping-food


Stroll to:
http://www.thelivingroom.co.uk/


Stroll to:
http://www.guoman.com/en/hotels/unit...brasserie.html


Next door to The Dickens:
http://www.malarestaurant.co.uk/home.php


Upstairs from the pub:
http://www.dickensinn.co.uk/the-grill


Upstairs from the pub (again).
http://www.dickensinn.co.uk/pizza



Please post on the poll & confirm attendance as well as a preferred time to eat.

(I know many of us're staying in town & won't be too worried about time so I'm thinking maybe we 'stayers' should bow to the wishes of anyone 'on a schedule' with a return train to catch or anything).

I'm easy!

I voted Basserie, I think I would prefer pizzzaaaaa though. I clicked the wrong bloody one


I am getting a train back to the midlands the same day... I think I will be getting a train around 7:00pm. I don't want to cause any awkwardness for the others so just carry on and I'll play it by ear

Well Gent's it's currently a draw between The Living Room & The Brasserie & having eaten at both I favour The Living Room to be honest so I'll give it a few more days to keep an eye on the poll & numbers eating then try & get us booked in.

Dino mate if there's no chance of you trekking back a bit later you/we can always order a pizza (or a few!?) from upstairs & they'll bing it down to the main bar for you.

& btw I didn't know you're a Break-Dancer?!?!?

maybe I'll 'throw a few shapes down' with you in the courtyard outside The Dickens.....

Good call Thomas mate I think....

Kerry & I ate at The Living Room when I went up to take the 'directions pic's' & we were both thoroughly impressed....
If it's a nice evening there's plenty of tables outside too so we can sit by the the quayside in view of Tower Bridge (I think?) & watch Dino & Dalip having a 'throwdown'!!

That's very early to eat again Spudsy - especially as we would have only eaten lunch at about 2 or 3....

I'd say a later dinner (sorry for those having to leave)...but we will still be at the pub at that time and snack are available right?

I'd prefer a late dinner....8 or 9pm.
