Just had this delicious Jamaican street food which has popped up on the forecourt of the now closed Dulwich Beer Dispensary, corner of Melford Road and Lordship Lane.

Jerk chicken, Curry Goat, Rice and Peas etc.

Robert, the chef, is there on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 2-10pm.

Nice to see this forecourt being used for something new to this part of Lordship Lane.IMG_20240719_205806730_HDR2.thumb.jpg.01150570b56d6fd49b54a3cb408fe8eb.jpgIMG_20240719_210513073_HDR2.thumb.jpg.3771cd95decceee49e1ce2b898f68b1a.jpg

How much did it cost?

Thanks. That's quite pricey.

It does seem quite a lot for something from a stall. Are there still seats outside what was the Beer Dispensary to eat it at? 

It looks good though. I hope his cooking is better than his spelling (ocassions ?!) 🤣

Why don't people get someone who can spell to check over things before they get them printed? I know it's not important in the great scheme of things, but it offends my nitpicking aka attention to detail side 🤣

That was my first thought. Then again he may be having to fork out quite a bit for the pitch?

Not sure as i haven't been up that bit for a while now.

I think he's going to have problems with this location, though I wish him well and I hope I'm wrong, but it seemed to be  a bad location for the beer dispensary.

There's very little passing trade, there's hardly anywhere to park if you wanted to pick up something in a car and take it home, and it's quite a long way to walk from the main part of East Dulwich.

Personally, good wishes to Robert on his venture, he has got off his derrière, found potentially a niche market and hopefully doesn't give a jott about sofa surfers nitpicking comments. 

Setting up a new business is tough and we should be supporting him, not trying to rip his legs out from under him. 

If you think you can do better for less and still make a living then go into competition against him. 🤔

Yes, of course setting up a new business is tough.

I haven't seen anything on here which suggests anybody is "trying to rip his legs out from under him".

I sincerely hope that I am proved wrong about the unsuitability of his location for a lone street food stall, and that he can also make a good living from catering for parties etc.

My nitpicking comment was a joke, in case it wasn't obvious 🙄

This is a forum for comment and discussion. Do you only write positive things when offering opinions? Saying an offering of food is a bit pricey isn't ripping any ones legs from beyond them unless the person who's interpreted that way is an idiot and easily swayed. It isn't so easy supporting a new business if their product is rather pricey, rather scant and can be bought cheaper elsewhere in the area.

 

I take it that you'll be supporting Jamaican vibes by treating yourself and your family to something that you can purchase cheaper at another DULWICH business  🙄

      Post Office Lordship Lane is Broken

      By giggirl · Posted

      I spend a riddiculous amount of time at the PO.  Every day.  I watch and I watch closely.  Returns take seconds.  The wait might be long but the scan takes a second.  The only thing that slows down a return is people scrolling through their phones looking for QR codes. Business customers like me take seconds.  I might have up to 2 bags of boxes but every one is perfectly packaged and pre-paid.  It just needs a scan.  Seconds. For customers like me and for returns customers they could just put in a self-service check out and we would all be in and out in minutes.  Quicker than M&S.   Or, have a dedicated window for scanning and nothing else.  No facility to handle money at that window so nobody is tempted to ask for a service other than scanning.  That would get the queues down instantly. It is the people picking up things that backs up the queue.  The branch is not equipped to provide the service.  Next time you're in the branch take a look at the shelf space immediately behind the servers.  A few stacking shelves.  That's all the space they have.  Everything else is on the floor in a mess.  I take on board what someone said about the private delivery companies not delivering to Peckham and I didn't know that.   The biggest time wasting service of all is Parcelforce.  If someone in front of me asks for Parcelforce I want to cry.  Long, long, forms need to be filled out by hand, in triplicate.  It is Dickensian.   Please consider taking a few minutes to fill out an online complaint (link below).  I honestly believe that an influx of complaints might make a difference.  I don't want to demoralise the staff or anything sinister but the PO needs to see that the branch is broken. https://www.postoffice.co.uk/contact-us/in-branch-customer-experience

      Couldn't agree more with the frustration. I avoid it like the plague but made the mistake of picking up a parcel a couple of months ago and it took them 20 minutes to find it. This was after queuing for an hour. All the pickup parcels were just in a massive heap with no order or organisation so they manually had to search for everything. Bizarre and deeply annoying as if run well it could be a good asset to the Post Office and of course the community. Also, very much agree with the point re not taking it out on counter staff as it must be a terrible and demoralising environment to work in.
