Travel:
If you are arriving by public transport, please use the TFL journey planner (https://tfl.gov.uk/plan-a-journey/) to review your travel time and plan your journey to the restaurant.
If you are arriving by car, please use the awesome power of Google Maps to plot the best route - unless you have your own GPS.
Important notes:
- If you will be arriving after 7.15pm, please send Ben or Katherine a heads-up message. Sometimes restaurants request that unoccupied places are put up for grabs for walk-in customers so your place can't be guaranteed if you're unexpectedly late.
- The organiser fee of £2 per person (including guests) will be collected on the night, so please bring some coinage. We also ask that you stay until the bill is paid in full to be fair to everyone.
- If you cannot come, please change your RSVP in advance. This ensures members aren't disappointed in missing out. Regular "No-Shows", those who RSVP yes but don't turn up, will be removed from the group to enhance the experience for others.
- Croydon Curry Club @ Raja TandooriRaja Tandoori, Caterham CR3 5UA£2.00
Raja Tandoori in Caterham is a traditional (some may say old-fashioned!) Indian restaurant in Caterham that serves very tasty food. It's a little further out though is easily accessible on the 466 bus from central Croydon and so we thought it would be a good option for a bank holiday Monday curry.
Reviews can be found on Google or TripAdvisor, and a copy of their menu is on Restaurant Guru.
Meetup full? Don't worry, RSVP to the waiting list to be automatically signed up if someone cancels!

This is a social networking event and is not the place to pitch your business, dish out fliers or sign people up to services. Please contact one of the group organisers if you would like to collaborate on something you feel is relevant to the group.
