The Ides Of September
Saturday September 15, 2007 at 7:00pm
The Bridge House
218 Tower Bridge Rd
London, England Get Directions
Just an evening get-together to talk, eat, and drink.
Category: Social
Comments
The Bridge House is just a placeholder at the moment. Other recommendations include:

Santa Lucia (Italian - warm and friendly environment, simple food - good fun)
2 Hollywood Road, Chelsea

Daphne's Restaurant (Fine Italian cuisine - very friendly, very good food and good Italian wines).
112 Draycott Avenue, Chelsea

My Old Dutch (Pancakes - basic faire, cheap and cheerful, good place to meet up with a crowd)
132 High Holborn, Holborn

Belgo Centraal (Mussels from Brussels - basic faire, cheap and cheerful, lively and with a very long beer list)
50 Earlham Street, Covent Garden

Elena's L'Etoille (French cuisine, very formal - good food and wine.)
30 Charlotte Street, W1T 2NG

The Bleeding Heart (French cuisine - good food and excellent wine list, secluded)
Bleeding Heart Yard, off Greville Street

I don't know if any of these can actually support a large group, or has a private room, but The Bridge House does/can.

How do we go about inviting people to this since it's marked as only showing to friends of Stowe? I have several people in London (or nearby) that weren't on Tara's original email list (and if we piggyback Faruk's bon voyage on it, he has more I'm sure).

I admit it, I'm an Upcoming noob (living in a small town where it's not really utilized, I rarely have a use for it outside things like SXSW. ;))

I vote against 'very formal'. Or even 'a little formal'.

Thanks! :) I vote against formal too... I'd like to have a few beers. ;)

Have a great time in my 'hood. I'll be in a small country in the eastern hemisphere and not able to attend.

Would any of you kind London folk have a parking space spare in a location that I could conceivably bed down for the night? I have the accommodation already: http://vwkombi.com/photos/vanfest-2007/Pages/P1010777.html - I just need somewhere safe to park it where I won't get chavs waking me up or otherwise messing with the bus :-)

Please email lloydi AT lloydi Dot com just in case I miss reply here. Thanks!

Stowe, really sorry - would love to be there. That particular Saturday is one of the rare occasions when my daughter is staying at her grandparents over night - which means I have prior committments - to my wife!
Let me know for the next one though. Best. dc

It'd be great if we could do it in My Old Dutch or Belgo Centraal, as that is easiest to reach. Chelsea is full of show-offs and annoying to get to :)

I admit that I am a lazy swine, since I proposed the Bridge House which is near my hotel.

I am happy to relinquish hosting rights to anyone who wants to take on the onerous task of a/ finding a place big enough for 17 of us, and b/ making the reservation.

Sorry, can't make it now :-(

What about the restaurant at the Hoxton Hotel?

But more central may be good for those coming from the West?

I have just called the Bridge Lounge and they confirmed the booking for 15-20 of us and the room will be available from around 5.30

I'm guessing that dinner's still at 7p as originally planned (drinks at 5:30?)... We'll be there, but not RIGHT at 5:30p...
