Good night at Ganapati, good food and company. My thoughts are that Ganapati is somewhat expensive for what it provides. It identifies its food as being south Indian street food, but at ?36 a head, that is very expensive street food.


Granted the menu is not the usual curry house menu, but the ingredients are the same, the decor is south Indian cafe stylee so attractive but basic and the rent in that part of Peckham is unlikely to be hugely inflated. So why the high prices? I guess because they can and it is a way of differentiating themselves from the competition. They are usually busy, although there were a number of empty tables yesterday.


I wonder whether some competition, another Indian restaurant opening in Bellenden would bring prices down, as people would have an alternative in that part of town?


Anyway, February - Lets go Swadesh as we did Mirash in December. Wednesday 29 February.

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying.
