Auckland Thursday Night Curry

When and Where

Date: 2 Sep 2010 Time: 7:30pm

Venue: Satya, Grey Lynn, Auckland

Auckland Thursday Night Curry is held every 2nd Thursday. Restaurant changes each time, usually somewhere in central Auckland (eg Mt Eden, Parnell, Ponsonby). We return to our favourite locations often.

Anyone is welcome to attend, especially if you agree to the AUP aka "rules". We usually get around 6 to a dozen each time. Most of the regulars work in IT, especially within internet network operations and bring their friends and/or partners along. Average price of each meal has been approx $26 recently, with a range of $25-$35.

The first Auckland Thursday Night Curry was on 4 July 2002 at Shahi Cafe Herne Bay, Auckland. We celebrated our 8th anniversary on 8 July 2010 at Simla, Mt Eden, Auckland.

There are some QR Codes rules to ThursdayNightCurry.

We really need an idea of numbers so we can inform the restaurant. If you're coming, please email let Doctor Lisa Alloju know.
