Harrisburg, PA meet up
There have been several threads recently for Harrisburg & York PA about getting together for a decent curry
So how about anyone who's interested responds and suggests some dates and then we'll decide one a date. I'm suggesting Passage to India in Harrisburg cos they do a bloody good curry and onion bhaji I'm easy on dates cos we don't have kids so I'm up for whenever.

Re: Harrisburg, PA meet up
Hello, juliecalifornia, both my wife and I are on. Here's is just a brief idea. How about meeting at lunch time for their buffet? That way anyone joining can just grab a plateful and sit at the long table which is usually at the back. Oh oh, I just thought they may use that long table for putting out the buffet. I don't remember seeing another long table there during lunch time now I come to think of it. But there is always the round one just inside the door. We have had 6 around that one.
If other join this thread and are interested, let them share their views and we can try to fix a date.

Re: Harrisburg, PA meet up
So was it something I said ?!!!!! Several people had indicated interest on other threads, so if anyone wants to suggest an alternative meet-up, please do!
I'll give this one some more time anyway, just in case people are on holiday etc.

Well I'm still up for it. Did you want to do I week or weekend night? I think in November I am free apart from the 8th and the 29/30th.

Looks as if dinner would be the popular choice. We can do the second and third Saturday evening in November. Anyone else?

Re: Harrisburg, PA meet up
So how about Saturday 14 November (a week from tomorrow)?
Please respond and let me know if this date works or if people would prefer the following Saturday (21). I'm thinking about 8pm?

Re: Harrisburg, PA meet up
OK. Both my wife and I can do that date and time, Sat, 14 Nov, 8:00 pm.
Now the question is, how many more will go and how do we book a table for an unknown number? There is usually a circular table for 6 people just inside the door and,at the back, there is usually a long table, often occupied by Indian families, ( a good omen ), which may seat up to 12 people.
Do you want to make the booking, which I believe is necessary on a Saturday night? If so, ask to speak to Mr. Vishnu Shenoy, the proprietor or his wife and explain we want a table for between 3 and X number of people.
If anyone else is interested, please tell this Forum asap and we shall look forward to our meeting.

Cuddly Duddly, if you know the owner and want to make the booking that makes it easy!
So far I have myself & my husband, Sandy Lumb (from another thread), Nethead (is that just you or hubbie too?), Cuddly Duddley & wife. USlynnUKAndrew how about you two - can you make it?
So it sounds like there's 6 definites plus anyone else who responds meanwhile. So 8pm Saturday 14 Nov (this coming Saturday), so anyone who can't make it after all, pls shout, and anyone else who wants to come along, pls also shout
Looking forward to it!

Re: Harrisburg, PA meet up
OK, I'll see to the booking. Please try to firm up exactly the people who will be there for numbers sake. As I will be the one sticking "my neck out" I don't want to upset Vishnu as we are frequent visitors to his establishment.
So, I am going to suggest, here and now, that whoever wants to go agrees on this Forum by Thursday night so I can confirm the reservation on Friday morning. Does that sound reasonable to everyone??
Juliecalifornia, do you know if there are other interested parties on the other Forum who may not be following this discussion? If so, please try to rope them in and we should have an interesting and convivial time.

I should be ok for saturday, but will have to double check with my MIL that she can babysit. It would just be me, as my husband works on saturday evenings.

Re: Harrisburg, PA meet up
I'll check this forum on Friday morning. I shall then make a reservation for the numbers who have declared their intention of being there on Saturday evening at 8:00 pm.
