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.

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
