Not just ED related so in the Lounge..


Just had a quick look at their website and see they have a few pubs opening in Forest Hill and Sydenham in the next few months


http://www.antic-ltd.com/


Any improvement on what they are replacing?


The one in Forest Hill replacing an old post office - that can't be a bad shot in the arm for the area can it?

The Woodman has been acquired by Wooster Stock & the Greyhound is Sydenhams oldest pub I think.


Though I didn't know that the old post-office was going to be a pub, hopefully they'll keep the feel of the old place. I quite fancy queuing up for ages whilst one person serves at their own pace.


On a serious note, i've noticed a change along the new East London Line, in places like Brockley etc & it seems like it's spreading to Forrest Hill / Sydenham as well. I think the area as a whole needs a boost but things are changing for sure.


Fancy an ale down there when it opens SJ ?

    • The Cornish Gouda was featured in an early episode of 'Rick Stein's Cornwall'. It's actually made by a Dutch family who moved here. The series is being repeated on BBC2 at the moment, so it's probably available on the iPlayer. Cheese Block stock a great 'Old Amsterdam' aged Gouda, if you can bring yourself to go in, or M&S do one made with Jersey milk. I've never found the Cheese Block all that grumpy. I think they just get a bit frustrated when it's busy and people don't know what they want. It's not ideal, but I try to go in when it's quiet if I'm undecided, and they're almost friendly. Here's a link to the Rick Stein show. It'll be available soon, apparently. Hopefully it'll help you track down the Gouda.   https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000qzxr  
    • It’s Mons all the way for us. Super friendly. And they know their customers . They even asked me why I bought so much Comté. LOL. This is the cheese from my area in France  and I eat it without thinking. I LOVE their Fourme  d’Ambert, one of the oldest cheeses in France. Much creamier than Roquefort and much cheaper too. Also love their selection of goats cheese - and the fact that they regularly discount cheeses that have ripened a bit too much, which is how I like my cheese. Been lobbying them to make Fromage Fort, which is a hit like potted cheese. You take old leftover cheeses and ferment them in white wine. If other Burgundians are in the area, please join the lobbying effort.  Heritage cheese used to sell an absolutely amazing Gouda from Cornwall and I really enjoyed this but they’ve stopped selling it.  Can’t comment on Cheese Block - so grumpy in there I’ve stopped going in. Perhaps I’m missing out.       
    • Yes, but I remember it fromages ago.
    • Can anyone please provide Niko's number?
