There's a mobile creperie in Hampstead that regularly has massive queues.


With Hampstead being everything most in East Dulwich want to be, I could see it working here too.

Creperie is a great idea.


Or how about a bagel restaurant? In Charlottesville Virginia USA, a university town that's culturally very like East Dulwich*, they have a restaurant called Bodo's Bagels. For years Bodo's has been THE place that folk like to meet to eat.


* Full of professionals, young-ish, strong community spirit, centre of town full of restaurants, lots of trees...etc.

Wagamama - rubbish.

ping pong - microwave food?

M&S - don't you think they are seriously overpriced? you can cook a similar dish for the same price but double the portion.

yo sushi - people have been to Japan would know how much a plate of salmon sushi cost in a similar style restaurant. Why do you want to pay ?3 for a plate of warm fish on rice stayed on the belt for > 3hours? The real sushi is in Camden (Asakusa)


I have enough of those 'upmarket' restaurants with poor quality of food. They stole the idea overseas and then repackage so they can charge more. I just want a decent meal that is honest and authentic.

I think a cr?perie (mobile or not) is a great idea! I have coeliac condition (an intolerance to gluten) so if anyone does run with this, can you make the savoury galettes out of buckwheat flour like they do in most authentic cr?peries in France?!


Cheers!

And personally I'd kill for a decent "proper" Mexican restaurant. Not the typical Tex-Mex joint! If it were good, it would make ED a destination venue for it; there are lots of foodie websites out there bemoaning the lack of a good Mexican in London. Mestizo (www.mestizomx.com) is, I think, the closest there is - though I've heard good things about Green & Red (http://www.timeout.com/london/restaurants/reviews/10974.html).

Agree with most other choices:


Sushi

Seafood

Noodles (not a chain like Waga's)

Creperie (yum yum - although NOT like My Old Dutch - great disappointment)


No-one has suggested a pie, mash and eel shop.............. what about our London 'roots'?


And please please please NOT a Giraffe...........

Well we have a cajun/soul food place on Grove Vale and I'd say it's been there more than 10 years. Best Caribbean food takeaway for miles and frequented by all nationalities. It the guy made it into a restaurant more in the 'heart' of East Dulwich along Lordship Lane, he'd do well.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By ctovey · Posted

      Sue My point being that if you experience something that could potentially be sorted by a GP, you might feel it necessary to go to A&E, which would be clogged up due to the doctors strike.  Just my opinion, but I don't really see that its necessary to close a surgery for half a day for staff training.

      A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10!

      Highly Recommended Painter / Decorator - Temi

      By nipperpenrose · Posted

      Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly.

      Dawson heights parking charge notice

      By mary123 · Posted

      The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
