Dulwich Tandoori - don't order online if you want the food (name corrected)


buggie

Recommended Posts

Hubbie ordered online (so address details/contact numbers not hindered by misunderstanding on the phone you'd think), and paid by card.


Confirmation email received saying delivery between 8-8.25pm, all good so far, but by 8.30 no food - hubbie famished & (only now) tells me he had probs with them online previously so gives them a call, food will be 5-10mins, ok we think.


By 8.45 still no food, I call and see red when I'm told that we've been called/food was delivered but turned away by a nice man & "you have a very nice front door" - am obv being lied to & don't like it - we've been in & make it v clear we haven't had anyone to the door. (I was doing toddler's bedtime otherwise I'd have driven to collect - hubbie thought he was doing me a favour!)


I head out giving up on the Indian as a lost course & still needing dinner, only to get s call from hubbie - the stone cold food has been delivered with no apology just an explanation that the first delivery driver didn't know where to go.


Am really disappointed at such a poor level of service, especially as the payment was taken in advance & won't be bothering to try them again :(

We've used Dulwich Tandoori for over 15 years and never had a problem, their deliveries can be little slow so we order earlier to make up for this, never unacceptably late though and quality of food more than makes up for it.


I am talking about Dulwich Tandoori though, next door to the Co-Op, Is 'East Dulwich Tandoori' a different restaurant?

Meant Dulwich Tandoori - fury + empty stomach x tiredness after travelling back to London = adding the East on.


If the food hadn't been so cold, it would have been fab. But, the lies they rolled out regarding the "attempted" delivery - "the nice man said it wasn't wanted" and "I know your house, you have a very nice front door" when I was trying to find out where on earth our delivery had got to, only to be told by the man finally delivering it that the first delivery guy hadn't known where he was going - despite full address correctly spelt given & there in the email confirming our order - means I'm not going to try them again.


If they can't keep to the timings they say their going to on an online order, then they should give a more realistic estimate & make sure their delivery guys can work a sat nav.

    • Amazing. Now could you cut and paste an AI summary of the defence case for Andrew M-W? 
    • I would like to understand this promise by the Greens in greater detail and how it applies locally? Presumably road/pavement upkeep and renewal is as important for cyclists and pedestrians as motorists? I am not aware of plans to build new roads locally but there has been plenty of money spent on converting roads into pedestrian only areas. On the face of it this feels a slightly empty statement, when applied at local level. I'd love to know the Greens stance in hiring out parks for private use (given impact on park environment), I'd also like to understand their stance on fireworks- I will look to see if I can find anything. I don't know if a manifesto exists under the documents section of Southwark Greens, but you can only access that bit by signing in- which is disappointing. If anyone has a manifesto that reflects local priorities- could they post a link?
    • You are most likely correct in thinking that  Kinnock, Blair, Brown, Starmer et all knew it.  But they obviously thought that his skills, abilities and usefulness far outweighed the negatives. Here is a summary of the positives lifted from elsewhere:-   1. Strategic Architect: He was a primary architect of "New Labour," rebranding the party and shifting its core ideology to win the 1997 general election. 2 Master of Communication: Often called the original "spin doctor," he revolutionised how political parties manage the media. He famously created the "grid" system to coordinate government messaging. 3 Networking and Charm: Known as "Silvertongue," he possesses a peerless ability to charm and network with high-level global figures, including business leaders and heads of state. 4. Governance and Trade Expertise: Beyond strategy, he was considered a highly efficient minister, serving as European Commissioner for Trade and Secretary of State across multiple departments, including Business and Northern Ireland.  5. Reinvention: His capacity to adapt to changing political climates and rebuild relationships reflects personal resilience and strategic flexibility. With his skill and abilities, he delivered results for all his bosses. In the short time in Washington, he found a way to get on the right side of Trump - despite him  being critical of Trump in previous years. That said he is complex personality.  He can be simultaneously brilliant and arrogant, thick-skinned yet sensitive, and selfless for his party while appearing narcissistic in his personal dealings.  My OP asked if he would be accepted over the pond. It turned out he was because he got on famously with trump. He worked out the correct strategy to get on the good side of Trump and secured a better trade deal than the EU and other nations.    
    • Malumbu, do you happen to know what the current figure is for "trips into town made by walking, cycling and public transport"?
