Who was it, then? Don't keep us all in suspense 😂

It was Millennium.    Had a few problems with the order as some incorrect items were delivered but they did remedy the problem by eventually sending the correct items.  Glad I hadn’t tipped.  In case anyone is interested in my opinion, the tarka dal was extremely runny, and the stuffed paratha was greasy in an unpleasant way.  The onion bhajis were tiny but tasted OK.  The sag paneer tasted very minty which wasn’t expected.  
 

I still like Spices in Nunhead especially for value for money, but wanted to try a few other places.

That's a shame.

I haven't used them for a long time as I haven't had a delivery for a long time, but I always found their food and service  reliably good.

Perhaps I have unusual standards but receiving samosas with meat filling when vegetable ones had been ordered was unpleasant.

Perhaps they have new staff and/or a new chef (given your comments about the other food you got).

Not that that is any excuse, obviously.

As the meat samosa will be more expensive (they normally seem to be) than the veggie option - so long as you were not charged for the meat samosa then it does seem an honest (if annoying) mistake. Indeed it is plausible that another punter was irked to receive veggie samosas in place of the meat ones they had ordered!

They have three types of samosa, vegetable, chicken and lamb. They are all the same price £2.90.  To bite into a meat samosa when you don’t eat meat is foul.   It’s not possible to place a delivery order on their portal, you have to call. However a collection order can be placed.  This seems odd.

Anyone living in the area who likes curry needs to try a delivery from two sisters in Nunhead -  it’s leagues above most. 

Constantly searching for similar quality Chinese delivery if anyone has any suggestions 

Hi

Who are these two sisters? Do they provide a catering service? Am looking for caterers of Indian cuisine for a dinner party. Thnks.

In my experience they're all crap but then I'm vegetarian so I get mine delivered from Khan's in Brixton.

Their vegetarian dishes are very good.

For delivery, tried Khan’s a couple of weeks ago. They offer a discount if you spend £25 or more.  I only ordered vegetarian food. Complimentary poppadoms were provided but don’t know if that it is normal as it was my first order. The tarka dal was very good.   The portions are large but they are more expensive. The order came in under the 60 minutes that was promised. I thought the naan that was ordered was very average, like they’d been hanging around for a few hours.  Some restaurants are better at baking than others.  I would try them again to see what the other vegetarian dishes are like, such as the pumpkin ones.  Andy P, what are your favourite dishes there?  I did have an aubergine, tomatoand potato one which was good.

    • The Peckham Rye Park heron was eyeing up two quite large cootlets on Sunday. Their parents were swimming around them and presumably trying to protect them. We couldn't understand why the coots  didn't swim off, but as they were under a large tree branch, maybe the heron would have been better able to catch one of the chicks in open water. It eventually gave up and flew off. Crikey they have vicious pointy beaks, herons! Is it for spearing fish?
    • The OP asked for advice from people on the internet. People who replied were trying to be helpful.  
    • Citizens Advice Bureau may be able to help, as they have connections with various relevant people/organisations. Your GP surgery may have access to a "social prescriber" who can similarly help.  I was referred to the  one attached to my GP surgery when I was very stressed with external issues. There used to be a community police officer in every neighbourhood, and if they still exist, I would say they should be your first port of call. I'm so sorry. It is so stressful living with nasty neighbours, although I agree finding out that other neighbours have also had issues with them at least makes you feel that it is not just you they are targeting. As regards the apparently poisoned plants and trees, if you know someone who is a member of the RHS (Royal Horticultural Society), they have access to a free advice service, who I'm sure could help pinpoint the likely cause of death. Unfortunately I didn't renew my membership this year, otherwise I would have offered to help.
