With the passing of Mick Daly (B45), Dial-a-Cab has lost

him. |

Much of that "knowledge" had come through Mick’s regular church visits and how he had quickly learned early in their relationship to steer well clear of two topics of conversation - politics and private hire! Readings were made by Mick’s daughters Julia and Joanna - who both gave emotional addresses – and also by his close friend, David Kupler (Y74). After the Mass, so many from DaC then attended Upminster Crematorium that the Minister was prompted to comment to wry |
smiles
"…that it must be difficult to get a cab in London today!" Mick is now re-united with his beloved wife Jackie, who passed away in November 2004 and is probably giving the Almighty some honest advice on a wide range of subjects. His immediate family, Julia, Joanna, Andrew and Simon would like to thank all those who attended on the day and also those by whose cards and messages they gained support in love and prayer. Rest in peace Mick… |

MANGO TREE NOW OPEN EVERY DAY! |
|
Dial-a-Cab drivers will know of
the popularity of Mango Tree restaurant
in Grosvenor Place at the junction with Hobart
Place by the number of people coming and going
in taxis. Now, due to that huge popularity,
Mango Tree will now be open for lunch on
Saturday afternoons as well. The restaurant opened in September 2001 and has become a favourite with customers seeking real Thai specialities and also hugely successful in attracting both locals and visitors to the area – which of course is where we come in! Typical dishes include succulent chicken skewers with satay peanut sauce, stir-fried sirloin beef fillet with ginger, garlic and spicy sauce and lychee and lime flavoured cheesecake with lychee and pink ginger jelly. Head Sommelier, Li Ya Nan, has created an excellent and broad international wine list that fully compliments the diversity of dishes on the menu. An extensive list of specialty cocktails includes Mango Tree’s signature cocktail The Mango Tree Fizz incorporating a tasteful blend of amaretto, fresh mango juice, champagne and cherry. The 150-seat restaurant provides a unique venue for functions such as weddings, launches, conferences and has staff with vast experience in hosting larger events at hand. Mango Tree can make organising an event as stress free as possible. Their opening hours are Sunday 12.00-22.30, Monday to Wednesday 12.00-15.00 and 18.00-23.00, Thursday to Saturday 12.00-15.00 and 18.00-23.30. Mango Tree is at 46 Grosvenor Place.
