Hence why i'm more likely to live in Denbighshire than ED!

Good luck in your quest finding sufficiently authentic Viet Namese cuisine in Sir Ddynbich for less than the cost of a Gregg's meal deal.

Ha, it's interesting that you think I'm on a quest - sounds fun to be honest.

We ate at Viet Flavours last night - the quality is excellent - home made noodles, generous portions, really fresh, high quality chicken - totally delicious.  We had the tasting menu which was actually very good value for money - lots to eat and we left stuffed. Run by the lovely Anne and her family, we will certainly be back to support this great new option to the high street.

Went to Viet Flavours last night finally. For me it is a bit cramped and noisy. Initially, they tried to sit us on the same table as a group of four, which I was extremely uncomfortable with and surprised given that I had booked. Thankfully a couple left as we arrived and gave us their table. The food was quite good, although, my 'vegetable' curry was actually tofu with just one bit of veg. Staff were friendly, but rushing around. Had to ask for water refills and only got half a glass each time. Good wine selection and the house wine, which is a Chardonnay, is very good. For me, the pricing is a little too much for what feels like a very quick meal in a busy setting.

Does know what is the new shop next to the Palmerston, where Dulwich Café used to be? Looks like they're ready to open (if not open already)

They're open. It's Love Dulwich cafe. Looks good - bistro fare (omelettes, sandwiches, lasagne). Nice decor and alcoholic drinks - so presumably morning, daytime and evening service. Haven't been in yet.

I have been in and liked it a lot. Nice food, well presented, attentive service. 👍

PopBox art for kids is/has opened up there. Plenty of my kids classmates have been going to PopBox for ages and they've got a new local home now too which is fantastic!

Just walked past this place opposite Dulwich Library today - I'd missed it opening up. Looks like a nice little space, they're doing art club stuff for kids in the holidays.

Is it the new branch of planet of the grapes or something else.  If something else we are going to be spoilt for choice.

Planet of the grapes is going to be frogley road so must be something else.  Hopefully another branch of Jerome's Wine Bar in Brockley or that one on Bellenden Road.

The Foxtons hoardings (?) have gone from the space between the Hospice charity shop and what used to be Boss Man (can't remember its new improved  name).

Does anybody know what if anything is taking over the space?

    • a - you said you were done interacting with me, remember b - " police, judge, jury, prosecution and executioner"  - the not very bright person's response on any public forum when someone point out the idiocy of anything. I haven't prosecuted anyone, executed anyone, or taken part in any trial or jury.    I have judged tho but then so do you and so did the OP - so what? 
    • And when did you become the police, judge, jury, prosecution and executioner all in one, I don't think so. And get back to Lewes
    • Yes, it is just that the local demographic is soon to have a large shift and more late night shopping catering for student needs is likely to be very popular. Presumably the massive student lodgings development plans for Melbourne Grove will have catalysed the Londis application. Wasn't there also an application for a late night bar or club at some point round there? Still, all this will help turn Melbourne Grove North into a real 'vibrant, urban destination' and 'town centre' and, for sure, we can expect lots and lots of e- bikes and scooters to be 'parked' around the place. What makes me laugh is that not so long ago the smaller housing development in the same place was being marketed as wonderful select family homes in quiet, leafy MG, with a 'villagey' feel.  As a taster for where all this might lead, has anyone noticed the crumbling brick facing on the railway development, built not so long ago? You throw 'em up and they soon start falling down. The developers make loadsa money and Councillors get to tick their boxes.
    • Stereotypes are based on actual real behaviours.  They can be inappropriately applied to a whole group and can overstep the mark, potentially being offensive.  But comments made on Corbyn and some of his followers are often accurate.  That's not saying he didn't have some good policies, often picked up by the large parties, and is not principled.  I saw him many years ago at an event celebrating Tony Benn where he was excellent.  Perfect for a back bencher. The damage caused by his Brexit stance is difficult to reverse, even ignoring the vote and the outcome, there could have been cross party working and agreement of taking it forward.  And being an apologist for Russia is just ridiculous.
