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  🙄

      GALA 2025

      By fishboy · Posted

      My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...

      Tate Modern eateries suggestions

      By PeckhamNicola · Posted

      Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?

      Car dilemma - do you manage without one?

      By beansprout · Posted

      Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.

      If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
