if you think that's harsh, wait till Snorky finds out about the restaurant's fleet of branded minis.

I thought that HonaloochieB's post was pretty funny (and assumed that it was intended to be so)

*bursts in breathless with excitement, beaming and full of fresh juicy gossip*


Iknowiknowiknowiknowiknowiknowiknow!


I just ambushed the new owners as they were leaving on their matching scooters (ah, cute)


It's going to be *drum roll* an independent Italian serving home-cooked food with their own pasta and bread made on the premises. Opening in 7 weeks.


I'll certainly give them a try when they open.

Well it'll be almost impossible to keep me away from the place. I've just thrown a brick with a note wrapped round it over the hoarding beggingfor a table on the opening night.

And if they're willing to flog me a table I might have some of their fancy bread an' all.

I have to disagree Sean - I've only been the once but I thought the food was excellent... if the food in this new place is anywhere near as good it will be a great addition to the ED area... Obviously this is just my opinion!

not just your opinion Ally - most people on here seem to love Si Mangia so It's me in the minority. But having tried 3 different Italian staples I can't believe people haven't had better examples elsewhere.


A ragu sauce should be deep, dark and meaty whereas I found theirs light and overly sweet. Which people may prefer but I doubt many Italians genuinely favour the latter


Maybe I've been unlucky - another trip to Si Mangia for me then...

Go to the city airport

Jump on a cheap flight to rome

Try to find a restaurant that serves only OK food

See you in about two years


The pizzas in rome are thin, light, crispy, and delicious everywhere.

We should rename whatever it is they serve up here masquerading under the name of pizza.

Alternatively, go to Grissini on Abbeville Rd, Clapham. Probably the best Italian grub in Saaarf London. Having said that though I love Si Mangia too!

I agree with SeanMacGabhann, I think Si Mangia is OK, but the food is nothing that special in my opinion. I had a pasta dish too, and found the sauce was rather bland... in fact I prefer my own homemade sauce. Maybe it's just ignorance on my part, but if that is the case, so be it!

      Oh David / Is David Lammy Toast?

      He should be. His behaviour has been appalling. Refusing to comply with a Speaker's request to come back to the HoC and explain himself shows utter contempt to parliament and the electorate. If he had any any integrity he would resign. Nothing to do with the prisoner, but all to do with his arrogance and contempt. This Labour party don't have any integrity at all though. We are two weeks away from the Chancellor of the Exchequer breaking a fundamental manifesto commitment. Breaking promises like demeans the entire contract between voters and MPs. If she doesn't resign for breaking those promises (she won't) then all manifesto promises going forward have to also be treated as lies, not worth the paper they are written on.  She should have already resigned herself for the breaking the law over her failure to register as a landlord. They are an absolute disgrace. And whilst all this farce plays out in Downing St where the fuck is the Prime Minister? Nowhere to be seen, unanswerable to the public about this disgraceful shambles.

      Dell Autos is closing tomorrow

      That's a shame. I tried to take my car there for an a/c issue a couple of times this summer but they seemed to be closed on both occasions so I gave up in the end. Hopefully they'll enjoy their retirement proceeds from selling their site to a property developer! The garage in Upland Road (Pitstop) is good for servicing and repairs. Kwik fit in Grove Vale is also good and they do the diagnostics tests too.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By malumbu · Posted

      My issues are pretty clear from my original post. The delays caused by the incompetence of the solicitor/executor, the damage to my late Aunt's property as we now go through the third winter without heating and ventilation, his inability to inform and engage with beneficiaries because he will not use technology around for decades or in the case of the telephone 150 years, which has exacerbated everything, I have some very helpful pieces of advice, including one by PM/DM who had similar experience, so unless the last two posters have constructive things to say I'll leave it there, Cheers.
