charliebubs Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I've got a friend from back home visiting this weekend and want to go somewhere nice for dinner on Saturday locally. Not too pretentious or expensive!I've heard Il Giardino (not sure of spelling!) in Peckham is good. Any other recommendations please folks?!Thank you :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/32477-wheres-good-to-eat-locally/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDR Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 There are loads of threads on here. Il Giardino I've not been to recently but was busy when I've been past. Gowlett for pizza, Begging Bowl for Thai, Montpelier for decent grub ditto the great exhibition. More expensive but lovely are Camberwell favourites angels and Gypsies and the crooked well.... Or Brixton Village for huge variety.We tried the new Peckham Refreshment rooms at the weekend too. Google menu and prices as I didn't pay so didn't really pay attention but didn't stand out as expensive Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/32477-wheres-good-to-eat-locally/#findComment-647263 Share on other sites More sharing options...

charliebubs Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Thanks guys. I've been to Angels & Gypsies before and loved it. Was thinking of somewhere more local this time.I did look for other threads on here, but only saw one about Il Giardino and Sue's one this week about Begging Bowl v Ganapati :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/32477-wheres-good-to-eat-locally/#findComment-647876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, we did tell the chef what we thought of it. Well I did :))Sadly we were so starving by the time it arrived that we ate it anyway ....
