From France? Is that really necessary? Is it not possible to source such ingredients in this country? Surely butter at the very least? Seems an unnecessary cost to be passing onto customers - though do correct me if I am wrong.

Merci Boulangerie Jade, quel bonheur d'entendre qu'une boulangerie francaise s'installe enfin dans le quartier, tout ce qu'il manquait ici ! plus d'un an que nous vivons a East Dulwich et la bonne baguette francaise nous manque !


A bientot alors !

Just been in this morning - very impressive! The best pain au chocolate I have tasted in a while and a portuguese custard tart to rival Madeira Cafe at Vauxhall. Yet to sample baguette and pain de compagne which they sliced for me. Will be back to order one of their delicious big cakes for my next lunch party.
Well, honestly? I am from Wigan - yes, we do bread, white bread. Today, we had proper posh bread from this lovely new shop at the end of our road, We had a pain au chocolate and a star shaped loaf thingie with poppy seeds in't middle. Absolutely wonderful- I don't think I can ever go home again now that I have said that out loud! They had better start making pies really quick ;-)

    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?  
    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
