Went a couple of weeks ago for the first time, in response to posts on this site. I echo char1ie - good without being outstanding. The VFM equation works well, not costly, local, comforting food - cooked with care but not aspiring to become a No.1 Italian eaterie.


Seemed buzzy, friendly - with couples, families and singletons all mixing well in a rather small room.


Would return. Convenient if you've been to the cinema across the road.

I have been just once and it was pleasant and friendly. A real little oasis of rustic calm in the badlands of Peckham. WHen you bear in mind the nearest alternatives are KFC, Mcdonalds, BK or chewing on a raw pig trotter bought from one of the nearby 'on-street' butchers, it is a godsend.

I have said it on the another thread but I am happy to join in again and praise this lovely little restaurant.

I think Charlie and Marmora Man summed it up pretty well - it is not groundbreaking; but what it does, it does well. And it leaves you with both a full belly and a lovely warm feeling inside that such welcoming places still exist.

After reading all the praise for this little Italian I thought it was worth checking out - so Saturday saw me and my "new friend"(!) check it out - and have to agree with Dundag - it really is very lovely! Highly reccomended - feels like a real local kind of place - with a great mix of clientele... have to say there was a rather ecelectic music choice going on though - heavy rock?

Anyhow - I'm sure we'll be heading back there soon... it's just a shame ED hasn't got it's own lovely local Italian!

    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
