Maria's Tortilla - East Dulwich.


Recommended Posts

The nearest Spanish tapas bar is Barcelona at the other end of Lordship Lane so it?s nice having a Tapas bar within walking distance.

I couldn?t find an opening date but work is cracking on judging by what we could see when we passed by the building today. I?m sure we don?t have too much longer to wait.

Because:

a) They didn't seem to know what they wanted to be, a deli or a restaurant

b) The restaurant wasn't even operating as a restaurant for a long time

c) The guys running it were lovely but seemed to have zero business instinct

d) The deli didn't do that well, I guess there's a limited market for expensive olive oil and custom imported sherry in East Dulwich. Who knew?


For what it's worth I really liked them and often bought stuff but it seemed pretty obvious they were not going to succeed from quite an early stage...

Best Tapas we have ever tasted (and have been to Spain loads of times) is made by a lovely couple Dioni and Jose, who have a pop up called Spanish Particular. They currently run it out of the Brockley Mess. Think they are still away in Spain for the summer, but hope that they will be re-starting again next month. You can google them and I think they have a facebook page

I concur

Took family there last weekend, food was excellent, staff extremely helpful, friendly and patient with my overly fussy 10 year old

Would highly recommended it, but don't tell everyone or as a family of 5, we shall e struggling for a table!!!

Is this not discriminatory?

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
