Hardly pizzaless! There's already an excellent pizza place on Lordship Lane - Sorsi & Morsi.

Seabag yes they do have a frontage to trade from, but it all depends who comes along to fill the empty places. I can't see a chain taking on the speedo pizza site, nor can I really imagine another independent. If anything, I reckon it will probably imagine an already existing business investing the time and money into an expansion or second outlet selling food. Maybe Blue Mountain ED 2? Hope and greenwood ED 2? Who knows. I personally would be happy with a prey a manger but that won't happen.

Amen to that Foxy. At last common sense prevails. It's Italiam peasant food akin to cheese on toast with a added extras. Then the poncy as you like gang move in and try and make it something it isn't! Average price 10-15 quid in certain places maybe more. Disgrace.

Twitter update from Franco Manca: they're opening a branch in South Ken in October, which is before the ED one is set to open. Apparently the building is "putting up a fight". I give this purely for information purposes without taking sides as to their priciness or ponciness.

I'm amazed they took on that building. It's a terrible layout. They're definitely doing the right thing by flattening the floor out, but it must be costing them a fortune.

They'd fold in a week.

Judging by the amount of interest they have attracted they will have nightly queues outside, so I'm pretty sure they think it's worth the time money and effort. All I can conclude is that people around here love posh-cheese on toast, seeing as we still do not have a noodle bar, Mexican, Vietnamese, or any other world food you care to mention. If you love a pizza or a curry LL is the place for you! I checked out the Tortilla website, it seems like a posh Subway, they've just opened in Clapham.

You're right, it was El Passo..Forgot that. Then, from memory, it went through a major refurb & came out looking just as tacky as before, but called Dos Amigos, before biting the dust completely. Just as Mexican/Latin American food finally took off:)

Then fold again and re-open as a burrito bar

Loving your work maxxi, it's not gone unnoticed here :)


Fresh California Burritos and Tacos are just the sort of thing you'd get for a cinema visit. Hand held and easy to eat, plus they're relatively inexpensive too

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By Sue · Posted

      How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't be just be struck off, or the equivalent?

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      By richard tudor · Posted

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
