Bagdadi rules
A marvellous time was had at the blog meet today, with 12 people turning up, but more on that later. (Update: here.) To begin with, here are the contents of a notice board at Bagdadi Restaurant, where five remnants from the blog meet went for dinner (all typos etc in original):
The bit I loved the most was the "and/or" in the eighth point. And yes, the chicken was nice too, and the rotis, large, soft, filled with flavour, were the stuff of poetry. Aren't you glad I don't write any?
Interestingly, a slightly newer notice added a nuance to point 6. It read: "Food may not be served to over drunken persons."Bagdadi Restaurant
