no I just thought that if le piaf is not to be a restaurant( steak house) then a more upmarket all encompassing farbic/upholstery shop would be good. What about one of those south american style steak/rib houses. wouldn't that be great?Huge juicy sirloins and rump and rib eye - may be a bit of surf and turf?? and a bottle or red and some chips................

Gaucho - I'd be amazed, but it would be great. Cheap chain more likely I'm afraid, which is a pity for the Village as it need a good restaurant.

Chez Gerard is obviously much better than cafe rouge but i suspect its too close nonetheless.


Its like ED hoping for Waitrose and getting Coop. I'm sure someone msut know what it is going to be though.

It was a "London Steak House" not "Dulwich Steak House" - part of a small city-wide chain before beef prices went through the roof and red meat got a bad name. Various cuts of steak served with frozen chips and frozen veg and expensive rubbish wine. Quite popular though as then, as now, the good burghers of the Village were all tightrwads where paying for decent scran were concerned. So it will be another chain.

Sean... SimonM is talking about the London Steak House which was situated where Cafe Rouge is now., La Piaf on the other hand was previously another crappy restaurant whose name I can't remember but I do remember before that it was an off licence and I was a regular customer.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
