We plan to GTG with Doug and Helen Weller on the 19th. Join us if you can. If that's not possible and you would like to meet on another night let me know Anyone else is in London is welcome to join us. Have narrowed the choices to Khan's or Belgo since neither are budget busters.

Kahn's is a great place for Indian food. It has been around for more than 20 years and is still one of the most popular Indian places in town, with a great ambiance and excellent value food. 13-15 Westbourne Grove, London W2. [MAP] Tube: Bayswater, Royal Oak or Queensway.

Belgo is undoubtedly London's home of Belgian cuisine with two locations, one in Camden and the other in the heart of Covent Garden. The industrial decor consists of lots of concrete and steel and the menu features good value filling food including wild boar sausages and that quintessential Belgian dish, moules frites (mussels with french fries) and of course an excellent selection of more than 100 varieties of Belgian beer. The 'Beat The Clock' deal allows customers to pay the price the clock states at the time of ordering (eg £5.50 at 5.50pm), Monday to Friday 5-7pm. 72 Chalk Farm Road, Camden, London NW1. [MAP] Tube: Camden Town and 50 Earlham Street, Covent Garden, London WC2. [MAP] Tube: Covent Garden.
