Therodinhooders Bangalore Mixer!!!

By Alok Rodinhood Kejriwal on June 15, 2011 27 Comments / 2611 views

Dear Rodinhooders,

I am in Bangalore next Thursday – the 23rd.

There is an event I am attending at the Hotel Lalit (Bangalore) that day.

I was hoping to do a small get together in Bangalore for all rodinhooders and their friends and everyone and anyone they may want to bring along! As usual it will be a dutch thingy.

Update – 18/6/2011

THANK YOU GINNY for stepping up and doing the hard work.

THE GET TOGETHER STANDS CONFIRMED:

7 pm onwards – the 23rd of June (Thursday)

Venue – FAVA

203, 2nd Floor, Comet Block, The Collection UB City, Vittal Mallya Road, Bangalore

Landmark: Next to The Tasty Tangles

MAP and DETAILS – https://bit.ly/trh-bangparty

Dutch style – hopefully we will all have some beers/drinks and food together!

PLEASE PLEASE COME AND MAKE THIS A ROCKER!!

Thanks Ginny again!

Alok

Any ideas on venue?

It should be a place where we could get some nice drinks and snacks/dinner. Something that could charge each of us a per head cost so that then settling the bills becomes less of a hassle?

(In Delhi, the restaurant host just took credit cards of everyone and stuck post it notes of everyones names on it and then charged as you consumed – that worked beautifully)

So please suggest and if possible, can someone volunteer to help me just make sure we have a ROCKING EVENING??

Ps – this is what the Delhi Party was all about!

Just mail me on alok@rodinhood.com or reply to this post and lets get the party started?!!

Best,

Alok

Bangalore has a lot of places like that. Toit and The Biere Cafe are two names off the top of my head. But I am not sure they do a fixed-fee-per-head kinda thing. Will try add places that are more conducive to sitting and chatting with a drink.

would love to come meet you again 🙂
Ginni Xanders June 17, 2011, 6:18 pm

Friends,

was @ UB City in the evening, Fava, Shiro’s, City Bar all are good choices, Just that you dont get any deals for groups less than 25 people. I am not yet sure on the numbers we would be having… for 25+ numbers, Rs. 1400/- (Unlimited Booze IMFL & Food) per head.

I have frozen on Fava, light music, good for our kind of informal gathering…. yes slightly expensive than other places in town, but the convenience of parking & centrally located ease of access for all… Hard Rock Cafe is the next best choice, out of UB City…. I am game for FAVA… So 23rd we are on… @ FAVA, UB City… 7:00pm onwards.

If we have more votes for Hard Rock Cafe… then so be it !

Cheers !

Sorry I got in Late 🙂 What about The Bier Club @ Alok its the first microbrewery in Bangalore and their Wheat beer is amazing 🙂 Its very close to UB city / Fava.
Shub June 18, 2011, 8:31 pm

Alok, am in Bangalore now. Will be there on Thursday at Fava @ B’lore

. Nice place. Thanks to @Ginny for short-listing the place and doing the feasibility study 😀 .As for your comment on beer, I fully agree. Here’s a quote for you: “A fine beer can be judged by a single sip, but its always better to be thoroughly sure.” 🙂 Cheers! (Pls send a FB msg with ur mobile # please if possible, thanks)

Rgs,

13th floor is a great place with a amazing view of the city.
