Oh yum,now I'm also craving roti canai. I think there's a place near Crofton Park station that does Malaysian food but I've not tried it.Following this thread as I hope someone knows a local place.


On a shameless self promoting note, I make beef rendang with Menu Next Door and I am cooking my next batch possibly Thursday.I know it's not delicious roti but it'seems a tastyear Malaysian treat to spice up a winters night.

can you please put up a link?

My Thursday menu isn't uploaded yet but if you use this link and type in your postcode it shows you local people cooking a huge variety of dishes.You can pre order online and then pick up from their homes.It's a great way to try different food and to meet your neighbours.


I signed up to be a cook as I love cooking and I can't be the only person around this area getting incredibly sick of pizza and burgers at every turn!!

I can post my beef rendang menu when it goes live,hopefully tomorrow. I make it for our annual Street party and the huge pot goes down well and I usually give extra portions to friends and neighbours.



Agreed about C & R ,a favourite in my family.Satay House in Paddington is pretty good too.Sorry again for jumping on your thread Turnip,hope you find a local place to satisfy your cravings.

The Malaysian deli in Brockley is pretty good but the roti canai isn't great, tbh. Bungah Raya in Thornton Heath used to do good roti but the last time we went, no roti and the food overall was only ok. The best place I've been in London is Roti King, near Euston. We usually buy frozen parathas, fry them until crispy, and then do the squishing with the hands to make them all flaky. Big pot of chicken curry.....mmmmmm.

Age dear


I SAID AGE DEAR!


Root canal in Sydenham? they filled it (the canal) in when they built the railway

It's actually pretty easy to make at home. My past few attempts turned out ok...but I still can't do that pizza flipping thing so use a rolling pin to get the dough paper thin.....


If you like Malaysian then check out Norman Musa's afternoon course "Malaysian Street Food" at Leiths Cookery School. I got given this as a present and whist a bit out my usual comfort zone it was brilliant. You'll learn how to make a mean Beef Rending and Roti Canai and the missus says it's the gift that keeps on giving...!

I am a big fan of Trinidadian roti (esp roti channa) and Bajan Spice in Nunhead used to be pretty good for that - haven't tried recently.


For Malaysian roti, Peckham's Helen Graves (foodstories) reckons Euston (which isn't at all local, per the OPs request), but thought I would share:

The Leith's class looks great.


I hope I won't get into trouble for posting this link but a few people asked for it. I am cooking Malaysian beef rendang again this Thursday, also making a veggie version this time with roasted butternut squash. If you fancy buying a portion please click on the link. Anything you want to ask feel free to message me. The rendang is served with rice and a spicy cucumber salad. I love cooking it. It's going to slow cook all Thursday afternoon until the meat is tender.

    • I do not know how old you are, but if you are clearly an older person ( please forgive if not the case) I think what these kids did is even more despicable. It seems clear this is not just misguided hijinks.
    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.
