Differing reviews for their current establishements:


SquareMeal

Despite the splendid location in County Hall, London?s former seat of government, there?s something a bit uninspiring about this eatery. The food is straightforward Italian-by-numbers ? pizzas, pastas, prosciutto & melon, tomato & mozzarella, steak with herby roast potatoes ? but the chef & his staff seem to lack the traditional Italian passion, & it shows in the perfectly palatable but unexciting food. Still, the prices are reasonable, especially given the location, the terrace is a pleasant spot for lunch, & it?s good for kids too.

Give them a chance, it hasn't even opened yet!

Sounds nice to me.

Sweet jehova........wikipedia is now the limits of our research ! Believe it or not chickens and pigs have been in existence in Italy for a long time x C


Carbonara is absolutely italian, what ain't is microwave heated pasta, floating in half a tin of cream. But then that's the thing, it about the passion you put into making something that makes it good food, even with blue chip ingredients you can still **uk it up.

Guys the place isn't even open yet and you are all having a pop at it!!! I say good luck and me and Mr Paps will be giving it a go and giving them a chance.


I love the forum .......but i hate it when people get stuck in and give such negative responses....some of you need to lighten up a little!!

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
