libuse Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Looking for somewhere in town, or maybe within reasonable taxi ride of town, that can do a decent lunch in December for a work party that accommodates veggies well. Bohemian, sadly, has been ruled out because some of the party (there is about 20 in total, 50/50 veg/meat) want to eat meat. I've looked at a few menus but the vegetarian option is non-existent. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebony Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Rushour has very good vegetarian options for xmas. It's just down the road to bohemian and can easily accomodate 20 people + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strix Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 how many vegetarians do you actually have? ring almost anywhere up and explain your situation, then ask if they'd be able to accommodate you all, and what options they could provide on the day most places have a 'specials board', so if you give prior warning, they should just be able to ensure they make more of the specials veggie than they normally would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
