Not forgotten

I'd like to suggest [link\|http://losangeles.citysearch.com/profile/92522/?cslink=cs_boc_lw_2_5\|Chan Dara]. Getting there is easy. Take 10 W into Santa Monica, take the North Bundy exit (first exit after 405), right on Pico (first possible turn), it is on that block on the right. Decent Thai food in a pleasant atmosphere. If you'd prefer Indian food, directly across the street is [link\|http://losangeles.citysearch.com/profile/92474/los_angeles_ca/bombay_cafe.html?cslink=search_name_cust&ulink=_2_searchslot13_520__1_profile_2_1\|Bombay Cafe]. According to Zaggat, consistently the best Indian food in the city. The food there is better, but the space is not as pleasant.

I am not a restaurant person and will have no time to investigate restaurants on short notice, and going to and from a restaurant wastes face time as does dealing with the staff and the high cost of wine is a negative, so I will be serving here. Since Indian is what I've been doing lately, that's what it will be (it is mostly already done). On the other hand, it will be southern (somewhat toned down southern since I don't know the chili tolerance of the guests), so there may be little comonality. Restaurants in the U.S. generally serve Muslim influenced Mogali cuisine from the north because that has been established as successful here. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

We could even transport you from work to the restaurant and then drop you off at home. My wife and I would have seen Andrew the night before.
