West Hampstead Life: Whampreview: Hana February 21st

Ever since Montefiore closed some three years ago, 351 West End Lane has struggled to deliver a good restaurant. Now, there are new owners and new impetus. Hana has been open a few months serving Persian food. The owners had a successful restaurant in Temple Fortune but wanted to try cracking the West Hampstead market.

But is it any good? Only one way to find out - and meet a bunch of lovely locals at the same time. Come along to whampreview on February 21st.

What's the deal?
We're taking 24 people to Hana. Each table will get a selection of starters for ?6/head, and then everyone can order their own main course. It is a meat-heavy main course menu, there's one seafood main course and one vegetarian main - however, they are going to put an additional vegetarian main on for us so even if you're not a meat eater there'll be some choice, and most of the starters are vegetarian. Main courses vary from ?8-13.

Whampreview basics
Dinner will be at 8pm and we'll meet at The Black Lion on West End Lane for a drink from 7.15pm. During the evening, whoever is hosting your table (there'll be three tables of eight people) will note down comments about the food/service/value etc., which will go into the write-up, but the evening is more about meeting people than being ultra-critical about restaurants. The bill is split equally between your table unless there's been a large discrepancy in alcohol consumption. Any questions, just ask.

To put your name in the hat, simply before 5pm February 6th with your mobile number. Whampreviews are always oversubscribed, so I draw the names out of a hat and will contact everyone with a "yes" or "no" on the 7th.

The headmasterly bit
Please don't commit on the offchance you might be free. Once I contact you to say you're in, please check your diary and lock it in. Chasing round to fill last minute cancellations is, to be blunt, a pain in the arse that I could do without. I appreciate that sometimes people do need to cancel for a good reason - obviously the more notice you can give me the better.
