So much butter it drips and leaves a puddle on the plate. Bread. White not toasted.


If toasted. White sourdough. 5mm spread of butter all over.


Sauce: Red on white bread. Brown on toasted bread.

Toasted very, very lightly, not even enough o give it any colour...but enough to give the bread an every so slight crust, to ensure the bread holds its integrity and doesn't go soggy in the face of a small amount of butter, and a large amount of bacon fat...

I would not worry too much about the Fat content of Bacon.


The far more serious concern is the Salt / Sodium content..


Bacon has virtually no Nutritional value . Highly processed.


What makes Bacon Sandwiches worse is that the Best Bacon sarnies are ones on Plain White Bread.

Haven't had one for a while, but if memory serves Franklins' bacon sandwich is around a fiver.


Really tasty bread and bacon and a large portion.


Oh, and eating in not take away.


Don't know how much a greasy spoon sarnie is, but it can't be much less than that?

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
