Bump.


Thursday 17/7 - Dulwich Tandoori, Lordship Lane


Looks like there will be between 8 and 10 of us.


I have booked the restaurant for 8.30 and, for those that want to, we can meet in the EDT at 7.30 for a palate sharpener.

Well that was fun.


In attendance: Mr and Mrs Sean McG, Georgia and Mr Georgia, The Cat-Onions, Hibbs, Mrs Citizen ED and me.


The Dulwich Tandoori has been around for years and the signage and decor are of the good old fashioned curry house type, well maintained and rather comforting.


Service was very good, we were looked after well by the Head-waiter. I cannot remember his name as Hibbs dubbed him "Poppet" and that has rather lodged in my brain. He said that he was, within reason, willing to respond to any name.


Food was largely good. I had Prawn on Puri and some of an onion bhaji and both were tasty and of a good size. The Tandoori Chilli Ginger Garlic Chicken was very tasty and the Aubergine Bhaji was also good. The rice was .. rice although I found the nan bread rather stodgy.


A chicken madras dish was not brilliant, the sauce was rather bland and the chicken tasted as if it had been cooked separately and the dropped into the sauce immediatly before it came out of the kitchen, not coked in the sauce. This was described to Poppet who was mortified and organised a second portion as a freebie take-away and asked for feedback to be telephoned in at a conveient time.


We had some wine and beers although the draft Carlsberg was at the end of the barrel and tasted rather metallic, when this was pointed out it was replaced with bottled beer at no extra cost.


We finished with a round free digestifs courtesy of Poppet.


The bill came to ?20 each - no bad at all.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
