This is my first post on the forum...have been reading for a while and thought it was time I joined up.


Now that we've got GBK here to stay, does anyone know what's happened to the previous owner, Nick Weston? Last I saw of him he was cruising down L Lane in a posh convertible. He was a bit of a character, old Nick - I remember when that place was Spaghetti Western. He changed it to Westons, then Dulwich Brasserie. The customers gradually dwindled - how many times did you walk past and see DB closed? Must have done well from the sale though.

The property still belongs to him. He just sold the shop to gbk and refurbed/built flats. Hes a nice guy.Westons didnt work i think cos it needed personality and originality. Not saying he didnt have it but looked like he left it to staff to run. :o))

the farce that was spaghetti western,went to it 3 times and every time i got wrong drinks,wrong food,cold food,rubbery pasta.on my last occasion i actually left after waiting 45mins for a starter to arrive,when i complained i was told it was because it was being cooked fresh, when i pointed out that i was getting a green salad,the waitress just walked off as did i,still owe them for the drinks.

Nick is still about, he is now driving that mercedes convertible about, quite a difference to that clapped out white fiesta!


He's having work done on the flats above Gourmet Burger. He rents the ground floor to Gourmet Burger for ?40k a year!!!!


He had some bad luck with the builders though- i think the original "head builder" ran off with thousands of ?s and didnt pay the contractors who ended up trashing the place blaming Nick for it.


Nicks quite nice bloke though

      Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down!

      Roof replacement costs

      Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By vladi · Posted

      It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Sue · Posted

      I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
