I have never been a regular pizza eater and it's never on our takeaway agenda. However a couple of times a year I'll do the Gowlett pizza, or on holiday in France it seems to pop up. But thin crust must have been the original and I can't see thin crust being particularly lardy. ??

I'm gutted that a pizza restaurant is opening. for the dairy and gluten intolerant its just a drag finding nothing one can eat on a menu.

Would rather it was a decent japanese restaurant as I don't have one of those anywhere nearby (I don't call Catford and Chrystal palace on the doorstep)

Also for Pizza lovers theres Pizza Express in Dulwich Village and Sorsi and Morsi.

Do we really need another? yawn......

Children need slow acting carbs. low GI.( not found in pizza dough.)


To keep them physically active and mentally alert.


Also they need Fiber not found in pizza.

A good pizza (like Franco Manca) has nothing but flour in it. So not the best thing ever in the great scheme of things, but not exactly a diet disaster. I'm not sure why this thread is discussing revolting cheeseburger crust pizzas when they are not remotely what will be on offer.

Very interesting article Louisa - processed food is the main culprit.



Tell me, how's Iceland doing on the processed food fronT? just wondering.......

We make home made pizza and bread. The dough is pretty much the same recipe, different quantities. The tomato sauce is blitzed tomatoes and herbs. We don't all do cheese owing to allergies, but the toppings are ham, mushrooms, and for my daughter sweet corn. Of you take a look at the ingredients on a loaf of bread now that's disgusting-there should only be about 4/5 ingredients. The bread bought in the shops (unless artisan) lasts way too long as it's full of junk. Pizza, and bread, cooked properly are not junk food. It's the convenience ones that are. If you want to call pizza posh cheese on toast, fine, it kind of is. But it's way more fun for kids. But junk? Only if you buy the greasy Pizza Hut/dominoes versions; but a cheese sandwich can equally be full of nasties. I'm not averse to the occasional take away; but I adore pizza and hate to hear it slagged off! Ps yes that cheeseburger pizza is revolting!

You crack me up Louisa, you bemoan that kids playing on the street is a thing of the past despite only recently venting your frustration of exactly that happening at Peckham Rye. I am seriously beginning to think that your posts are a knowing parody.

could be a couple of reasons for that 85v - my money is on them going in every day, looking at that hump in teh middle of the building and wondering what the heck they are going to do with it (just as previous and future tenants/owners have and will)


more likely various planning stages need to be signed off before the hard graft starts in earnest

Louisa is no Troll.


A Forum Troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people.


Louisa just expresses her personal views on topics being discussed here.


If those views are not the same as yours, that does not make her a Troll.

Forums are for discussion and people need to be able to express their views without being insulted or ridiculed.


Anyway Louisa doesn't need me to stand up for her. She is quite capable of looking after herself.

They have the same set up in Kebab & Wine . next door. I believe they use the area for storage. ??


DulwichFox.

yeah underneath, there must be good use for the space in terms of storage


But for the flow of the bar/restuarant, and from a customer perspective it sucks the life out of the place


K&W is a different proposition - standard kebab/fruit out the front. The fact that it sometimes doubles as "a more atmospheric" restaurant out the back is something I suspect most other operations aren't trying to emulate

Back in the 80's.. The K&W Upstairs Rest. Was quite delightful..


With Check Oilskin Table clothes , Candles & Flowers..

It was a cosy rest. where one could take their partner for a romantic evening.

Similar but more intimate than the Blackheath shop.


How things have changed.


DulwichFox.

I did say a likeable one. Maybe troll's the wrong word. Certainly mischievous...

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
