New restaurant

The double meaning of toasting (as in grilling) and toasting (as in raising a glass) makes it an OK name in my book.


Ultimately we had 10+ pages of people typing the first rubbish that came into their head in the vague hope of a free meal, so don't be surprised if the chosen name isn't exactly brilliant. Garbage in, garbage out.

yep - or Toast meaning 'finished, dead, done for, etc.' as in "That restaurant is Toast."

Well we ate there last night. First impressions are that they've just raised the bar for restaurants in ED. Very short menu, changing daily. Very fresh seafood, lovely meat. Large wine list, and also good value wine on 'tap' (i.e. four huge vats in the dining room). Delicious bread and butter made in-house. Prices were along the lines of Palmerston/Franklins/Crooked Well, which for me makes it somewhere for an occasional treat rather than a regular local. A few things to iron out of course, but it could well become something of a SE London hot spot.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
