<item title="Location">
<p>Gerrard Place is a short street running between Shaftesbury
Avenue and the east end of Gerrard Street (the main street in
Chinatown). When we meet for dim sum, we gather outside by 12:55pm,
with the aim of sitting down by 1pm. (If you are going to be late,
ask us to save you a seat, and meet us inside.)</p>

<item title="About Dim Sum">
<p>A dim sum meal consists of many small dishes ordered as and when
desired, so it is perfectly possible to join in part way through; but
since most people will have to return to work afterwards, we do need
to start on time. The cost of the meal varies depending on how
many dishes are ordered, but the bill excluding drinks other than
tea (which is provided free) is generally about a tenner per
person.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, dim sum does not work very well for vegetarians,
and not at all for vegans. You can find out
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dim_sum">more about dim sum</a>
on Wikipedia.</p>

<item title="By Tube">
<p>The closest Tube station is <a

(West)” exit from the station and turn immediately left. Walk
along this road (Charing Cross Road) and take the second left into
Newport Court. At the end of Newport Court, you'll enter a small
square with restaurants and small shops displaying exotic vegetables.
Walk across this, bear right, and you'll be in Gerrard Place, with
Gerrard Street leading off to your left. The New World is halfway
up Gerrard Place on the left.</p>
