Warning:

Please note that some of the preparations in OTF use wine.
So if you do not have any food that contains it, you may want to take special care to avoid the same.

Shall forewarn Paresh about the impeding Team-BHP Bomb, that would be exploding tomorrow. I have dropped the bomb with Ram at OTF, which Paresh might be unpacking soon.

Pre-ordered the following - Need to finazlie the quantity of the same:
1. Golden Fried Mushrooms - 20 Plates
Each plate has 3 pieces of Mushrooms, hence i guess 20 plates should be ordered. Each person would devore one plate for sure.

2. Potato Wedges - 5 Plates
Should be enough for all the 20 people there.

3. Thyme Scented Chicken - 8 plates
8 pieces per plate. Should be enough for 2 or 3 people. 8 Plates should be sufficient for 17 Non-Veggies

4. Blueberry Cheese Cake - 22 Cakes
Already mentioned that we need only Blueberry Cheese Cake and would have nothing else.

5. Meat Balls (for the pasta)

please do let me know, if you want me to pre-order something else. I would be speaking to him again in the evening to give the final numbers.

In Pasta, he uses Wine in Fettuccine Alferdo and Farfalle in Pink Sauce. In Deserts, he uses it in La Tiramisu only.

Woaah Nikhil, go slow on the ordering. Thats simply too much of food.

Cut down Mushrooms to 10-12 maybe. Order something else 5 plates, something else 5 plates. Make it a mix and match.

Dont order a single item in such huge quantity except maybe the BB cake

Remember we are there for lunch not dinner. Keep it as light as possible because each person will have snacks, pizza and dessert

Dont want to go to sleep after that


Ram who came for bike meet is also joining !!!

Hi Friends,

I am so tempted to add my name to the list but injury and some work is keeping me away.

Would have loved to be part of this. Still there is a 10% possibility of me making it if my work gets completed on time. Will never mind driving with an injured hand for a meet like this.

Shammi, welcome to Team-BHP and also to Hyderabad meet thread. Sorry to know about your hand. Take care and join up only if you can

2012 surely promises to have much more meets than 2011. So there is no hurry !!!

I always knew this is the best way to expect responses regarding the orders. Put in huge numbers beside the order the final numbers will flow in automatically.

Pre-ordered the following - Need to finazlie the quantity of the same:

1. Golden Fried Mushrooms - 13 Plates
Mushrooms stuffed with bell peppers and Mozzarella cheese. Golden fried and served with cheese dip. Each plate has 3 pieces of Mushrooms, hence we might need 14 plates of Golden Fried Mushroom, making it 2 GFM's each.

2. Basil Glazed Courgette - 2 plates
Thin slices of Zucchini glazed wtih basil pesto and melted cheddar served with pineapple dip for Veggies.

3. Thyme Scented Chicken - 5 plates
Cubes of chicken, marinated in cream and pepper, grilled and served with red pepper couils. 8 pieces per plate. Should be enough for 2 or 3 people. 5 Plates should be sufficient for 18 Non-Veggies

4. Blueberry Cheese Cake - 22 Cakes
Already mentioned that we need only Blueberry Cheese Cake and would have nothing else.

5. Meat Balls (for the pasta)

Please do let me know, if you want me to pre-order something else. I would be speaking to him again in the evening to give the final numbers.

What you can expect at OTF?

re: Hyderabad Meet Thread 2012 Meets: DINNER MEET_NOV 24TH, 2012

I see a complete HOUSEFULL for OTF.

We can borrow a few chairs from Tarkari (the veggie shop next doors) else buy a few chairs from More Supermarket.

What is the rule for seating?
(a) As per confirmations in the list
(b) First come first seat
Just joking!!!

4. Blueberry Cheese Cake - 22 Cakes

5. Meat Balls (for the pasta) SEE BELOW

please do let me know, if you want me to pre-order something else. I would be speaking to him again in the evening to give the final numbers.
Pizza, Pizza & Pizza!!! How can we skip Pizza of OTF?

Would it be better if we share each plate of Meat Balls for every 2/3 pax and each pizza for every 4 pax.

Do we need to pre-order a little bit for the veggies (both starters and mains) or can Paresh rustle up something as per their desire at that moment?
