That's too exciting!!!

Yes, Persepolis definitely coming to SE22, we ate in the legendary Peckham branch last week and the Lordship Lane offshoot was confirmed. It will be called Simorgh. Doubt if the new one will have a roof terrace overlooking the Job Centre though! Review of the quirky original here. https://open.substack.com/pub/eatsdulwich/p/restaurant-review-persepolis?r=8oe6m&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

Hi guys could anyone recommend some good pasta places on LL or any surrounding areas? Thanks

We enjoyed ravioli at Due Fratelli (near the bus stop on Lordship Lane  which TFL for some reason calls Goose Green) the other evening.

Though they seem to have more pizza options than pasta, and not many pasta options for vegetarians (though obviously that won't worry you if you aren't a vegetarian!)

I'm confused, sorry.

Do you mean it's staying the same but just changing its name?

It’s clearly shut, with all the branding stripped from the tiled facade but the emails I’ve got when signing up for notifications are still, ultimately, coming from Megan’s.

From the post above this seems to be a re-design to support a new(er) trading concept for this particular Megan's - there is nothing that I can find about either issues with Megan's stores in general closing or Megan in general being re-branded. Maybe removing (and presumably eventually replacing) the store name is part of any necessary work. What about the outlet in Dulwich? Has anyone who uses this heard anything about the sister store in ED?

There are others in North London that have disappeared and reappeared as Ollie’s. Is it the same company? I don’t know.

'Ollies' ick 🙄!

Such a kind of psudo matey middle class branding..Is 'Ollie' Megan's estranged husband?

Theres a lot of money being thrown at these shopfits then having them completely ripped out and refurbed after a few years just seems a bit desprate and wasteful.

This is why I support independent buisnesses.

Sounds, and looks, more like an errant and indulged teenage son who backpacked through south east Asia and visited Jim Thompson's house. 

Probably came home with dreads, piercings and a Thai script tattoo that he was told represented 'One Love', but actually spells out 'I Am A Massive Farang Twat'.

The latter is quite a common thing.

They really should have added 'Fuckwittery is Ollie's House'. 'Ollie is a fuckwit'

If anyone wants decent south east Asian food, please try Chern on Grove Vale. Pau has worked really hard to make that place work, it's genuinely good, and she is lovely.

Grab some wine, beer or pre-mixed cocktails from a local shop (I'm not sure what she's doing with corkage at the moment, but I'm sure she'll sort you out) and a cake from somewhere and have your own fusion night.

Chern now sells alcohol including wine,  and has Thai beer (Singha)  on draft.

And yes Chern is lovely and really good value!

Urgh. All we need now is for them to call it 'Ollie's on the Lordship' and satire is officially dead.

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Rockets · Posted

      Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.

      So you are also old enough to remember the Heath Out protest by the TUC when unemployment hit 1 million? We all have selective memories, this thread is no different. Please give me a list of the Labour sleaze. And compare it to the Tories.  There are a few of you who appear to have a long term dislike of Labour, so all this is a gift.
