They have a section which they can isolate for us, for 20-25 persons, provided we book on time.

How's this sound ?

Barbeque Nation, at Pali Hill sounds interesting. But will we have a seperate area to ourselves? What about parking?

I've heard "The Residence at Ramada - Powai quotes similar prices @650 per person -

A sample quote received by a friend earlier is as follows;

" Venue Hire Charges (Hall) (19.00 hrs till 23.30 hrs).

Includes Starters (02 Veg. & 02 Non-Veg starters) will be served during cocktails OR 1 ½ hrs.
Buffet Dinner: 2 non-veg, 2 veg, 1 paneer, 2 salads, 1 chaat, 1 raita, 1 dal, 1 rice, Choice of
Indian Breads, 2 desserts, papad, pickle and chutney.
Soda, soft drinks Juices, beer, breezer’s and Mineral water shall be provided by the hotel and will be charged on actual."
Powai would be convenient for BHPians from the Suburbs on Western and Eastern side. Also good parking space.

Worth considering ?

Definitely worth considering, if we have a place to ourselves. But what about the hall hire charges ??
Also, more importantly, will they give the place to us with a number as small as 20 -22 ?? That is the main problem with most places.

I understand it includes hall hire charges. Minimum persons - 20

If liquor is on the agenda, they quote an additional amount for Liquor License charges (which they eventually waive if persuaded sufficiently).

If you guys are considering venue in Powai, I am so game to be the Bhp-ian no 23 for this meet (I stay in Powai). Been the fence sitter for a while on this thread, but i guess its time to join the party.

If you folks are game, we could do Karting at Hiranandani, post lunch that is considering it open around 2:30 PM. What say ?

Hello hello, guys - we were talking about a DINNER meet

)

Btw, some feel Powai may be a wee bit out of the way, Bandra seems more central and accessible to all.

Any opinions ?

danlalan · 17th June 2010, 11:13

Just a thought.

A Sat nite Town Drive after the dinner. It'll be fun. We can meet on carters (carter road, Bandra) for a line up and then drive on.

Well, we had loads of junta keen on 19th June meet and then the venue was finalized, but in the end its just three final confirmations. Could it be a case of the final venue not being a comfortable one for the remaining twenty from the original list ? It certainly isn't for me, keeping in mind the rains and the fact that i dont have my own ride here. I have had serious trouble finding a cab/rick in this season.

+1, I am game for this if this gets finalized.

SuperSelect · 17th June 2010, 13:36

People,
One day to go, and three confirmations.
Not enough.

Let's call off / postpone this one till more of us are enthused enough to plan another date and / or another venue.. Wonder why so many confirmed in the first place ?

Cheers !
