Attendees (of which I am not one) could do a lateral flow test as a courtesy ahead of the meet up. If you don’t have one, you can apply for them online and they come quite quickly. Also available from most pharmacies I believe. Just a thought for some extra peace of mind.

Yes it is the “outdoor” area. Maybe a good idea for everyone to check LFT before attending, though. I think this is going to become a standard course of action for many similar events (eg. wine-pages WIMPs)
I will sort one before 15th
I have just got mine from the pharmacy. Very easy to use, instant result. They are free.
That’s interesting - I’d not realised that pharmacies were giving them out. I hear there are plans to start charging for them soon, so just hope it doesn’t spark a panic “buying” spree!
Lateral flow tests are an excellent idea, and we shall be taking them.

I would/will certainly be buying some of the Teliani and Dirler-Cadé wines.
Great time was had by all, as the saying goes.
Nice to see a Georgian wine. There would have been two if I was there 
According the merchants selling the 2000, “mystery” is Kisi. But I suppose that is not totally reliable - I was told the 2018 was Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane and Chardonnay, so it seems to vary with vintage
It was a great evening - lovely to meet @thewinelake, @Andrew1990, and the others who came; good food; and an excellent array of wines. Hard to pick a favourite.
One slight alteration to the wine list: Burlenberg is not 100% pinot noir (nothing at Deiss is ever 100% anything!), but a field blend of pinots, including noir, meunier, beurrot, and I believe gris and blanc.

I forgot to add what a great job the restaurant did. Apart from the food, they happily provided us with multiple glasses, decanters, and even stickers to put on the decanters so that we didn’t lose track of what was what. Top marks.

Let us know when your next boys night out is, and we’ll schedule it for then! 
Yes, that was outstanding service!
I’m wondering if a thread dedicated to places to eat/drink in/near Cambridge might be useful, rather than extending this one? Not quite sure of ettiquette.
Good idea. I’ve started a new topic, with the existing recents post on the subject moved over
Might also be worth moving other posts over there too - ones where offline venues are discussed - but I haven’t looked closely at that. Alternatively, maybe someone could summarise that discussion in the new topic
To anyone who was in this thread… There’s a new one!
Those who missed that one - now’s your chance - Cambridge Tasting Group dinner - Maybe Wed 24 November @ TOBS
