Going to look to-morrow for the Balti restaurant for the next meeting(party) (I will wear a frock and beard) on the Wednesday 14th of December.
Probably, Stoney Lane area after meeting at The Anchor.
Do I look for a restaurant which has table-cloths and chairs or one with Formica tables and stools?
I suppose you boys will want one with a licence?
I will update to-morrow.

Thanks Kivver May have a look. Had a fruitless tour of the high light areas of Birmingham this am. looking for Asian restaurants I use to frequent.
4-5 places have disappeared (possibly condemned), two have are now selling Italian food.
I think China has secretly invaded Birmingham.
Have been instructed to have a look at another Asian restaurant in Ladypool Road.
What is opinion of a Chinese as we will be backing onto China Town?

Any Brummies around here recommend a good eating house around China town....or just as Importantly warn us of any one's to avoid. A no smoker would be good as well.

chung ying garden and chung ying are fab but more expensive, the big wok is slighty less expensive also do a nice buffet. all very nice. my fav is 'tin tins' which is a bit further away just off broad street at brindley place but all very good. good curry house in the centre of town are harder to find.

I think Broad Street might be on the more expensive side and a bit further away but will put It on the list, thanks both.

Cheers Ian, thats what brum has to offer nowadays, good pubs/clubs, eating houses, theatres and generally a good atmosphere and time. Pity im now in the age range where most are younger lol. Brum has done a lot to improve over the last 15 years and is now a top city. pity about my football team who got beat by West Ham last night.

couldn't agree with you more - I remember it as a desperate 70's city, then it was all change when I was working there for Schwab - the redevelopment around brindley place was excellent

Stan - The big wok is good value for the city centre. Even better value is Wing Wah Restaurant at Nechells but again a little taxi ride out of the city.

Jeez, what's with this lot. Birmingham, the curry capital of Britain and here we all are talking about the Chinese. In any British high street, now Indian is all you can get for a sit down meal! Look at what MAM chose for their Xmas do, even in London Town..........! Try Smethwick.

I think It's a case of someone with up to date local knowledge on the subject.
....Fred still doing research as we speak I expect -:)
