On Friday, February 17, twenty-two members of the British Club and one guest, Sheila and John Brae’s grandson, enjoyed a brilliant meal at the Saffron Indian Bistro on Oracle Road here in Tucson. Choosing a la carte from a wide choice menu of delicious Indian Cuisine, the Brits enjoyed the camaraderie of members and friends. A fun time was had by all, enjoying the different Indian food some say the staple of British Cuisine!
