>>Its just that we have reached saturation point. How many outlets can we keep afloat. I know that there are people here who seem by their comments to try every new outlet that opens up. They seem to exist a diet of Coffee and Croissants. My gripe is that there are too many outlets charging premium prices for crappy coffee in East Dulwich. The only place that serves consistently great coffee is Toast, which isn't open when I head to work in the morning so I drop into FCB at Denmark Hill. If La Scala opens early and the coffee is good I will give it a try.
