rob, I hear you, I do


But if you are going to (politely) tell people off for not paying attention to an area, you should be aware as a frequent reader of the forum that we have had a good old discussion on this already, no?


Only teasing really


The consensus when we spoke about it was that those who had tried the other branches gave it a 7ish out of 10 - ie it's not going to bring an awful lot to the Lane. Fairly pricey too don't you think?

i'm looking forward to trying it out. The food is good and its delivered to your house -sounds perfect to me. Right now my favourite place is Tandoori Nights. Wish they delivered. If they did, it would be perfect. Definitely rate that as the best Indian restaurant on Lordship Lane. Now the Bicycle Club has arrived and can deliver to my house for when i want to eat at home. If i want to eat out I'll go to Tandoori Nights - win win situation!

Agree on Tandoori Nights but was upset to hear a friend went there recently with his lady and both their meals were as bad as they have had. One expected a hot handy and one expected a mild Korma. The handi was bland and the Korma was "boiled water".


Having been a bazillion times I found it hard to believe but this guy is very trustworthy. Maybe a bad day in the kitchen

Have just placed an order online rather good value set meal which doesn't seem to be on the leaflet. Really worth noting that if you place your order online you get 1000 loyalty points - which are worth a tenner off your next order. Of course its a promotion to get you to try it, but why not ....

we just had take away from BBC. They do seem to be having a few teething troubles, Mr KG had to wait a while (we always collect our takeaways). But it was delicious and much nicer than our usual Pistachio Club. No oil, very fresh looking sauce, def a cut above what we usually get. And if you spend over 20 quid you get a free bottle of wine. nice touch.

We also tried this - the food was amazing (I have not tried Tandoori Nights so cannot compare) not oily in any way and seemingly freshly made with fresh ingredients. Trouble was the baby started screaming and most of the curry got left uneaten so ?30 thrown away. Will be trying again though - maybe when the little sod has grown up a lot!

Got a takeaway last night from the BBC. Tasted pretty good, but it's priced at the high end. The main complaint was that the kitchen was absolute chaos. I turned up and ordered about 8, and was told 20 minutes. food was ready 40+ minutes later, by which time there were about 15 hungry people at the counter all waiting for food which should have been ready a while ago. Staff had about 30 orders on the go, half bagged up, but couldn't seem to complete any. Teething problems with a new kitchen no doubt - probably be a bit smoother in a few weeks.

    • Wanted 2 x Adult and 1 x Children tickets for Dulwich fireworks tonight please!
    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.      
    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
