Just been told that this most famous of London Pubs is once again holding a very exclusive Burns Supper on Friday 23rd Jan.2009 to celebrate the 250th year of Scotlands National Poets birthday.

This has now been held annually for the last 3-4 years and as usual a piper will play in the main courtyard...(Pipe Major Rebecca.)and then will parade around and through the pubs bars to escort the honoured guests upstairs to the dining room where the appropriate dishes of Haggis ,neeps , tatties and whsky will be served.

There will also be renditions from students of the Royal Academy of Music and a number of celebs /actors and local politicians have been invited.......maybe even Boris?

This special eventis being organised by the RAVENS which is a club connected with the students union at Guys..so no problem to find a Doc.

Chairman Mr Tony Heywood can be contacted for information on Tics /reviews etc...

Finally made its back with my wife for diner (she is Thai) and both agreed that the food was very good and with the number of customers that evening must only be getting even better.

Also on that particular occasion those very nice people from a famous London based Thai magazine were doing a presentation and I was intervied and had a photo taken for their next edition...so fame at last.

Lakorn Thai was the first Thai Restaurant in North London which first opered their doors some 25 years ago to big reviews and had many famous visitors including the Rolling Stones,Tina Turner Rod Stewart etc. but their standards had indeed appeared to slip over the last few years.
Now with a new owner Khun "A "who is one of the best known Thai Chefs in London great things are promised so will just have to see what he comes up with.
It is still early days yet but looking forward to my next visit following visits to his other restaurants and would highly reccommend the experience.
