Try down Camberwell Church Street. There's some good Chinese to be had.

If you are thinking of silk road it looked like it had gone last time I was going past, but I've just checked and it reopened this week. https://www.timeout.com/london/news/cult-south-london-restaurant-silk-road-has-finally-reopened-022224

Their menu (on Just Eat, they dint even seem tk have their own website) looks disappointingly similar to every other generic "Chinese" restaurant. 

Given how long it's taken them to open it seems a shame that the offer looks quite so bland.

I agree. I was surprised when I saw the menu, for the same reason.

I was quite glad to be honest.  My regular is pretty generic, but since it was closed, this was very welcome.  There are plenty offering non generic food on the various apps. Sometimes all you want is tried and tested comfort food!  Personal choice, room for all. 🙂

The menu outside the restaurant looks better than the take away one.

Yes, extremely silly.  And especially when they don’t offer a 10% discount like several Indian restaurants do, according to their websites.   Two Sisters in Nunhead is one. Was highly rated by someone on the Which is the Best Curry Restaurant thread.  Not tried yet, but at least they have the option of card payment.

I agree @Alec1! I also like a Chinese which does the classics, like a good sweet & sour chicken!

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. Planning to try 148 Chinese tonight!

      I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.

      Maybe the signor in question spotted some hot jacuzzi action and just had to stop in?
