Just seen a post online about Janda Diner, the Malaysian restaurant on Rye Lane. They're offering an "invisible rice" side dish for £3.50. Whoever orders it gets absolutely nothing - because the money is donated to PECAN, a food bank that serves people in need in Southwark.

It's a witty and much-needed way to raise money for PECAN's important work. Mr Bao did something similar last year, I understand. Well done, Janda Diner!

Good idea. Good to see they’re using vintage 1970s Pyrex plates in the Autumn Glory design 🌼

I have had a fear of Pyrex plates since one was put down in front of me (with food on) in the seventies and suddenly it shattered into millions of tiny pieces 😮

Ii have still got a couple of those plates - purchased in the then Jones and Higgins in the early 70s. Whereabouts is Janda?

JandaDiner is on Rye Lane in Peckham - 191 Rye Ln (near to Choumert Road). It's really really good - quite unique and exciting Malaysian food - not a cheap meal, but worth it in my view

I heard it had moved further down Rye Lane,  but I just googled and 191 is the new address!

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
