I dont think we have mentioned that Katie 1997 attempted the NAGA CHILLI CHALLENGE.


This being the eating of the naga chilli placed upon every portion of Jaflong's Naga Chicken.


She passed the test with flying colours. Others have, but have done so with some fuss, sweating, frantic huffing puffing and over-dosing on endorphins.


Katie didnt so much as flicker an eye-lid. An impressive performance.

Yeah...but it is her party trick ;-)

HelBel you would be most welcome. There is normally between 6 and 10 of us, very friendly and welcoming.


We will meet at The Actress pub at 7.15ish and then move on to Surma at 8ish.


Drop me a PM at some point, we can swap id details (pink rose, right lapel) so that we can spot you.

I may possibly have to pick up a couple of people from St Thomas's hosp but if not would love to join in!

The Actress is a big place - if I PM my mobile could someone give me a vague idea where you are, to save me forlornly wandering about gazing suspiciously at groups of strangers?

I may have a +1 as well but tbc. I?m guessing Surma on a Wet Monday night should be able to accommodate fluctuating numbers tho?


Also, not trying to be awkward with peoples' plans but given we have a new bar open this week opposite Surma (Draft House) would it not make more sense to meet there? Late in the day to be saying that and Actress is fine and dandy but just thought I?d gauge opinion


Helbel65 ? if meeting at the Actress, look for a raucous table NOT eating pizzas. Has anyone PM?d you yet?

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
