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.

    • Maybe if you indicated what you were reviewing, pub, gastro pub, high-end gourmet, local Italian etc. - whatever classifications you wanted, then you need only indicate that your stars referred to overall quality in that category. So it it's pub grub then 5 stars means it's great pub grub, but not the same experience as 5 stars in a high end gourmet category. Your star system could then include implicitly value for money as well. 
    • Does OP know they can sell everything but alcohol even without a license?😄
    • Thanks, it's a real dilemma whether to do star ratings. A few people have asked me to do them but I've tried to resist as they are too reductive - people will look at them and won't read review! and they are difficult too - my last review of Victoria Inn, i'd give it five stars for value for money - how can you knock two courses for £18? – but 2 stars for quality - edible but nothing special. Which I guess is why some sites give star ratings for different things...
    • ok - Jeremy himself is against mandatory vaccines. Is he as extreme as his brother? No? Is it fair to discuss how the overall view of that family would inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic? I would argue very much so
