Just checked their website to find the following message.


"Dear customers....

Si mangia restaurant has been aquired by Lorenzo restaurant, crystal palace and is now closed for the next 3 to 4 weeks for refurbishment and staff training. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and the short notice however we hope to be open as soon as possible with a new management team and menu. In the meantime should you wish to book at our crystal palace branch please call 020 8761 7485. We look forward to serving you again soon and si mangia wishes to thank you for your custom over the last 9 years."

We only ate in si mangia once and I ended up with food poisoning, thought the food tasted strange when eating it and commented at the time to the staff then spent all night throwing up(and my birthday:( love lorenzos so happy there will be one opening up a bit closer.

I have always enjoyed the CP Lorenzo's (they did a great lunch-time deal as I recall) - I haven't had a bad experience at Si Mangia - they were always to my mind a very old style Italian (like we had in the 70s) - none the worse for that as they delivered what they promised - but I probably prefer the more modern (regional) take on Italian food. But the staff were excellent and welcoming.


Let's hope the new ED Lorenzo's can match its CP parent.

    • When I had a property with a basement there would often be a pool of water in the centre. I was told it was related to the fluctuating height of the water table in the area (se22) and would not become a problem and the only way to get rid of it would be to get the whole place completely tanked. 
    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
