Had a stroll down EDR this afternoon and noticed the former Chinese buffet place next to Rose's fish and chip shop is about to become Jaflong Indian-Asian buffet (new sign up and work going on inside). Looks nice a good prices too from what I could see (prices are written up on the signage). Have these people left LL? I'm sure they had a restaurant there.

Never had cause to give Jaflong a bad review.. Why would I of continued to use them for years if I had. ?


I VERY seldom give bad reviews about any particular restaurant.. I don't actually use many of them.

If memory serves you fell out with them after they complained to you because they saw you in another restaurant?

No.. There was conflict over an interview with a local paper with one restaurant and a supposed FREE review and an inclusion of a Half page ad. for another restaurant.


The half page Ad. was not Free but a PAID Ad.


I sort of got in the middle of it all.


That is all I can say here on the matter..

Absolutely not. I did not give a review to anyone about any restaurant.

Someone supposedly from a local paper visited Jaflong (2-3 years ago)took photos and offerd a free Ad.


The Ad did not appear .. but a Half page Ad for an other restaurant did. That was a PAID Ad.


That's all..

Are you drunk.. I had absolutely nothing to do with any Ad.

I did not speak to any one. I did not take.. supply .. feature in any picture..

I did not speak to any paper .. reporter..


I eat in most of the Indian restaurants with the Curry Club and independantly.


all this started because SUE wrote.

Which is Total B*****ks..


As far as I can make out 2-3 years on, Jaflong were scammed by a fake reporter..

and I know no details. Perhap they paid for what they thought was a 'Genuin'Ad that did not appear.


Then the other Ad appeared so Jaflong were angry they had been duped.


Hope that helps.

Living up this end of ED, having a curry house very locally is welcome.


If Jaflong continues to allow BYOB then that should benefit the liquor sales in the Londis and Hop Burns & Black either side.


Perhaps also the Fire Ices ice-cream shop if people dont fancy a sorbet in a coconut shell.


Good to see some changes on the Lane with the Jaflong site becoming available and the corner site opposite yet to open.

Never been a huge fan of Jaflong, but the ability to drink fancy beer with my dinner does sound tempting.

Fabulous Ice Fires is excellent, really love their ice cream, but I don't think it's open in the evening. Would be nice to see some of our local Indian restaurants do a proper dessert, rather than just the usual rubbish.

It was a restaurant across the road from Jafflong, if that helps.


ETA: Or very close to Jafflong, anyway, because they could see it from their place :)


ETA: Or perhaps I have totally dreamed the conversation? Don't think so, though, to the best of my knowledge I have never dreamed about you, Fox. Yet :))

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
