best carrot cake in ED

[bil]

who sells the best carrot cake in ED?

so far the best i have had was from the cafe opposite the plough (near to the library) with the purple sign-it was so yum

[jollybaby]

Homemade by far - and I've eaten a lot of carrot cake over the past 12 months

Homemade's carrot cake is lovely!! Can't compare it to any others locally though as I haven't tried anywhere else's.

Oneof the stalls on NCR does/ did killer carrot cake..

Now serving a sentence in Butlins.

i have never been to homemade before; but will do soon

Agree that Homemade do lovely carrot cake. Their brownies are great as well (they have vanilla salt in/on them which is unusual but delicious). Also good is the Blackbird Bakery carrot cake, they're on NCR on Saturdays but also have a shop near the station. Their chocolate fudge cake is nice too.

I eat too much cake :-$

Not strictly ED but I had great carrot cake at the Lido Cafe at Brockwell Park last week.

I just got that one, rather amusing for Meds.

Like you're funny Andy!

[Frankito]

Who the F is Andy?

[Alan Medic]

You're Andy Murray.

[Frankito]

Oh yes, I forgot that slander from before..

Seriously, I was amused. Your mood swings entertain me too >:D<

Now get back in training and remember - in 10 months time we'll all be rooting for you - for a fortnight - before forgetting you again.

And Doc? Work on the backhand and the mood swing - you keep hitting the net.

I know it sounds funny but I really like Tesco carrot cakes!

[Frankito]

Taxi?

[maxxi]

Breakaway?

[Frankito]

No, taxi for Counnar for daring to mention Tesco in my presence. As a devout Waitrose groupie, the thought of eating anything from Tesco makes me ill... >:D

[maxxi]

Go on Frankie - you know you want to...

Is there going to be a Waitrose on LL? I've never been in one so can't wait!

[Frankito]

Maxxi, only if you take the wrapper off first!

Meds, stick with me, Waitrose is a thing of beauty! Once initiated there will be no going back...

No, not LL. But close, Sydenham.

But you can't beat carrot cake from Homemade - they are consistently brilliant at everything they do there (tu)

just went to Homemade; the carrot cake was yum but the one at La gastrononmia is even better.

Btw why is food in ED so expensive. I recently went to a great gastropub for lunch in Cannonbury (The cannonbury). It was busy, the service was excellent and the portions were massive and delicious.The price was the equivalent of that offered in ED but the overall value was far greater. or i can pay ?7 for salad and quiche in ED

[val162]

Well I think it is definitely the Electrical Engineers Cafe on Peckham Rye. Carrot cake is superb and cooked on site...

[binary_star]

bil I am definitely going to have to try the cake in La Gastronomia as I love the Homemade cake!

I had a cake there once, can't remember what it was, and I can't remember it being all that nice. I haven't been back since my first visit as I found the place a bit soulless. I felt like I was sitting in a furniture shop if that makes sense...? It hadn't opened long though and it was pretty empty - wonder if the atmosphere has improved?
