Ethiopian Feast Night
Come along for our first Ethiopian Feast night at the Global Cafe at RISC. A special buffet just for us will be put on in our own section of the restaurant for £8.50. All suitable for vegans, veggies and anyone else who likes yummy interesting food. So just book with us to come along.
Ethiopian food at the Global Cafe is tasty and mildly spicy, with some dishes being a little hotter. Tutu will cook special ones for us she doesn't normally do. Price £8.50 per person.
Dessert is not included (please excuse earlier error), as Tutu is not allowed to make them due to some contract issue with RISC.
We reckon veggies are best at making good desserts anyway, so bring along your own home-made vegan dessert or a generous donation for a portion of a dessert someone else has brought along. If you don't like cooking you could still bring Swedish Glace ice cream or soya cream. Please tell us what you plan to bring! Any surplus dessert can be sold/swapped on the night. Any money dessert makers receive can be used by them to cover costs and/or donated to a charity we can choose together on the night.
Directions
35 London Street,
Reading,
RG1 4PS
Walking from the town centre & station: take a look at one of the linked to maps below and scroll north a bit to see the train station too (on Station Hill/Forbury Rd). You might find it handy to print one.
- Come out of the main station entrance next to WHSmith
- Cross the pedestrian crossing and head leftish down Station Road
- Cross the traffic lights and continue down Queen Victoria St (pedestrianised)
- At Broad Street (you'll be near John Lewis), turn left along it
- Continue from Broad St into King Street (not pedestrianised)
- Turn right down Duke Street
- When you get to a dual carriageway, cross it, and continue straight ahead up London Street. RISC & the Global Cafe will be on your left after Great Expectations pub.
- To get to the cafe or shop go in the main entrance.
- To get in the meeting rooms you can go through the cafe/shop and ask the way, or turn left up a little pedestrian alley just at the end of the RISC building, left in the car park, and you'll see the meeting rooms entrance on the left near the car ramp.
Driving : parking is available all day in the Queen's Road Car park on the main Queen's Road dual carriageway (£9.50 for all day). There is also free parking round the back of RISC, but this tends to be full (you get to this by turning left up South Street, next left, left again and up a ramp. Only park in the designated RISC parking area). On Sundays there is more free parking in streets round and about, but leave yourself a fair bit of time to explore this. Use one of the maps linked to below to find your way to RISC & the Global Cafe.
