What does the word 'showes' mean in local slang? No shorts? No slippers?

8:30 at Zaras? Aint that a bit too early???? oh well.... an early start will mean an early end...

so what time at Saravana Bhavan or Amaravati? i forget the name...

hey friday... why dont we just dump Zara... Its ladies night at Distil at the taj connemera.. the ladies will get discounts/free drinks (not sure... but it will be some thing) and if i remember it was ladies night at Vertigo on a friday some time back... drinks free for the ladies... and a beer costs the same everywhere so i have absolutely no problem no matter where we end up...

Edit: yup it is ladies night at Vertigo as well.....

I think they mean no sandals, formal shoes, western wear. God forbid that anyone should try to get in wearing anything traditionally Indian!

It's a good thing I don't drink, they would never let me in

It sounds like wearing traditional outfit and being drunk are interconnected someway.
But you still eat, right? So why don't you join us for the first part of evening?

I think probably not this time, but that is what I would normally do, yes.

Anyway, As long as I know where you are meeting, if I change my mind, and if not this time, then I'll probably be along next time.

Well, I'm not coming, but... I'd say that makes a very unattractive deal for any non drinkers. Quick bite to eat and.... bye! It's not worth the drive.

I'd say, have a pub night, enjoy, and lets have quite separate non-pub nights, or an occasional meet somewhere like Barbecue Nation (which I quite fancy, as it happens ) where they serve beer I think (?) .

I totally agree.... So who all re really interested in the Dinner part alone? maybe we should cut that out? Wed be doing zaras injustice with filling our stomachs beforehand.. the spanish tapas are their specialty anyway... no good going there if we do not have room for them in our stomachs...

edit: I enjoyed the barbecue nation as well.... we should do that some time..
