My Dinner with Andrew was the third story of the audio anthology, The Diary of River Song: Series Three, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by John Dorney and featured Alex Kingston as River Song and Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor.

Publisher's summary

Welcome, Mesdames et Messieurs, to The Bumptious Gastropod.

The most exclusive, most discreet dining experience outside the universe. For the restaurant exists beyond spacetime itself, and the usual rules of causality do not apply. Anything could happen.

It is here that the Doctor has a date. With River Song. And with death.
