That's what I like to see..... Easily pleased!!

So does that mean you only eat half as much?

Try it dragging a cat along.

I do know of a pretty awesome place in Wapping.....if folks fancy it for dinner??

Review here:

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

It's an option..but heck...I'm happy wherever...

Don't think it's that far from where we are??

Pretty sure it is "just around the corner-ish"... Buy know what the area is like, probably best to book a table, especially on a Saturday night

It's a superb joint....excellent food/wine...and in an old turbine room...

What do others think???

Might be good to hit a joint like this ???

Unless you want to come to Oz...know lots of places round here

I'm game for whatever everyone else wants to do BUT within easy walking (staggering?) distance are (among many others).....

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

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

Right next door there's a nice Indian restaurant:

http://www.malarestaurant.co.uk/home.php

& in The Dickens itself (on different levels from the pub) there's:

http://www.dickensinn.co.uk/the-grill

http://www.dickensinn.co.uk/pizza

I've eaten at all of the above & I'm happy to recommend them all.....

Personally I'd suggest we take a leisurely stroll to whichever takes the majorities fancy & many of them (perhaps even all?) have online booking facilities if we can confirm numbers in advance.....

As I said I'm happy to go along with whatever everyone wants to do but I think the logistics of geeting multiple cabs to a different area within a small time frame might present problems on the day/evening.

Your call guys & I'm happy with whatever y'all want to do.

I agree Dan!
It might be a good idea to have dinner somewhere nearby, again its saturday and we are quite a crew.
And again if someone care to make reservations COUNT ME IN

Maybe put down a list for us that are down for dinner after Dickensinn
