My refrain - as I think I told you when we recorded - is: "Do I want to sit in traffic, do I really want this meal that bad?"

Oh, Canary Club is next to one of my dance classes and people try to use the latter's free parking to get into CC. So every time I go there, I have to explain to the security guard I am going to the dance studio, and not to CC wearing oversized baggy hip hop street wear.

I eyeballed Kokum and Kari recently but didn't get to try it - will add to my list when I'm there next! I was busy diving into Jooksing's chippy last time...

The traffic and distance is a major headwind and that’s why I don’t head over to the Jumeirah side of town.

Kokum and Kari, I am interested in your take. Not for a special journey but worth keeping in mind if you’re in the area.

As a Tamil, I have a duty to report that the word “Kari” has several meanings. It can of course mean the a sauce, but it can mean meat too. I would be happier if they referred to the meat because that would be “more Tamil”. I am looking for a good occasion to go to Savryn. I urge you to try CBF express supper club too. The chef is doing very cool stuff.

Absolutely no doubts about your reporting on what Kari means! My point (perhaps poorly explained) was that this is the word that is credited as being the origin for the word “curry”. I am game for CBF Express!

Savryn is definitely on my list. Much like you, I am geographically challenged.

Go in with an open mind I would say, but my feeling is that with a bit of coaching, it could be something different and good.
