Guidebooks on Rwanda & India

Does anyone have the Bradt book on Rwanda, or the Lonely Planet East Africa guidebook?

And the '.86 Lonely Planet India guidebook? Yes, '86

Madras was a much smaller town back then. If you are able to describe the food and the location then I a maybe able to guess the name of the restaurant. By the way was it "Eskimo" in Dhun building on Mount Road?

23 years ago and you want me to remember? I had stuffed capsicum. It was presented upside down on the plate, covered in silver foil that "breathed" in and out as the dish cooled. I must have watched it for 10 minutes before I began to eat it and it was delicious, too.

I'm hoping it's in the 87 version and the rest. still exists.
