Hi all,


My parents are travelling to East Dulwich for lunch tomorrow. We want to go somewhere close to Lordship Lane and after a truly great gastronomic experience at Toast ED a few weeks ago, I was thinking of heading there. However, I have no idea what their Sunday lunch offering is like. Has anyone been?? Would really appreciate some honest feedback before I book.


Although I haven't tried it yet, I know Franklins in the safe fall back choice for a Sunday lunch but my father is very passionate about food so if anybody has an unusual suggestion for somewhere which really impressed them, would love to hear from you.


Thanks.

We've been up to the newish Crystal Palace Food Market restaurant on Church road in CP a few times now, and it's really good. They have a Josper charcoal oven, and do amazingly good meat and fish in it. Not madly expensive either, starters, mains, beers, wine and coffee for two for about ?50.

Yes - their pork belly is addictive, as is that wonderful drink they make with beetroot juice and (I think)pomegranate.

According to Mr Louisa they are allegedly similar to Aunt Bessie's ready roasties, whether that is true isn't for me to say, but they are indeed very tasty and very salty. The glass always sticks to the table Vik, and for me, that's the icing on the cake. If you're feeling adventurous you can even order a starter or a side, I always enjoy the garlic bread with cheese.

My post was in response to Binnie's (immediately above it) saying that the pork belly at Duck Egg may have swayed it.


Duck Egg have had generally poor reviews on here in the past for their food, while ToastEd have had generally good reviews. The recommendation for Duck Egg's Sunday roast was (obviously) not a review of ToastEd's Sunday lunch.


The OP was asking for "unusual suggestions" for a person passionate about food.


Sorry I didn't explain my post more clearly .....


I hope that wherever they went they had an enjoyable meal! I hope the lack of a feedback post is just because it was so good that they still can't move .... :)

I recently found Toast ED and have now expeienced the Avocado on toast for breakfast and a wonderful Lamb and Remoulade for lunch.

Not the cheapest but quality fair, great service and a lovely setting. Have told all my friends. Highly recommended.

Took my parents out for a roast at the Duck Egg today and the everyone agreed the food was amazing!

Also v good value; think it was ?12.95 for the roast beef - an unusually decent portion and they got my 'medium rare' just right. BYOB saved us a few quid too.


Very satisfying meal and will be back for sure!


Haven't been to ToastED so can't compare.. yet.

      What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.

      Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.

      Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
