New restaurant


Hazleharman

Recommended Posts

there is a small caf? in St Mary's on the Isles of Scilly called 'Dibble and Grub' always loved the name (food great as well - the view is also amazing!!!!)

I think the name comes from a children's programme, Camberwick Green? They were the names of the Fire Men - I think?

Roots & Shoots?

Flora & Fauna?

Hi guys


Looking forward to seeing the new place!


I've worked on naming projects before so was wondering whether you're following the strategy for the other places in the group? If so, you'd need a wine-inspired name. How about these?


BARRIQUE (the classic Bordeaux barrel)

METHUSELAH (like 'Balthazar')

HEAVY TOAST (my personal favourite because it sounds slick and distinctive and appeals to the senses)


Otherwise, how about THE FRENCH PARADOX?


In case you don't know, it's the phenomenon whereby the French seem to live longer and have better health despite indulging in rich food and wine. As the name for a restaurant, it's an intriguing story.


I would steer well clear from any puns or Dulwich-related names as these are naff in the extreme.

In particular, anything containing a postcode just makes it sound like an empty nightclub from a 90's soap.


Not sure about "Heavy Toast" either, but just "Toast" sounds OK.

    • Supermarkets have massive volume and tiny profit margins. If this were true Ocado would be dead by the end of the week, surely.
    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
