Jerk Rock

[citizenED]

We all seem to be clued up on Karavan and the antiques place on LL, but does anyone know what's happening to Jerk Rock?

[Ma]

I have no idea but it seems they were not making it business wise . The restaurant always looked empty

[Keef]

That's because the service was awful! Shame, cos the food was good, you just didn't want to wait that long for it, and constantly be told they'd run out of the very thing you wanted to order! :-S

[Ma]

Sorry to hear!

[Doodles]

Yes. So am I. They may have been slow but the food was good and they would always sell you a beer while you waited.

"It is dreadful mews, nut would somebody please open a Starbucks?"

Visiting Star*ucks may cause spelling mayhem.

Their food was great! Its a real shame!! When ive got food from there id always have to wait. And im not talking 5mins. im talking an average of around 20mins. Now, sometimes I dont mind as its worth the wait. But most time im in a hurry. Which ment that I would decide not to go.

[Ma]

Hello, a good thing in a way as they cook it from fresh

[spymum]

I'll be really sorry to see them go; the food was delicious, especiall the soups! Are they really closing? Shame, I hoped it was a refub.

The next nearest place is Bajan Spice in Nunhead High Street

What about the 'Rice & Peas' place on Grove Vale? - never tried it myself but isn't it similar?

Sunspalsh in bellend is better, but best of all is the roti house near brockwell park

[David Mc]

Don't know the name but there's a place on Maxted Road. On the right, not far at all after you turn off Bellenden Rd. have never tried it.

[spymum]

Roti house? Brockwell Park? Yummers! I'm there!!!!

[snorky]

right at the bottoem of the Croxted road, nearly under the railway arches- opposite the park - along form Olleys and bandidos

West Indian Rotis - like what you get in Barbados at Sandy lane.

mmmmm

what about sun splash on Bellenden rd! They have been there for over 25 yrs now! The best Paties and Guiness punch I ve had.

[spymum]

Umm Rotis! (drooling noise).

Don't get me started Snorky! The local food is Barbados is wonderful and I always come back six pounds fatter. Or is that the effect of the rum punch? I don't think that the high faluting Sandy Lane would disgrace its hallowed portals with local food! Poor old Michael Winner wouldn't stand for it!

Next time I'm near the Bellenden I shall give Sunsplash a whirl.

It's a Trinidadian takeaway on Croxted road at the Herne Hill end, recently reopened under new management and it rocks. They have a very bad stereo playing very good Steel Drum music. The Roti's are great but the Doubles (two Chick pea flour pancakes filled with curry, mint, yoghurt and other stuff) are gorgeous all smothered in Tamarind sauce.

[Keef]

Roti House is bloody brilliant!

[Ma]

Why not try the Peanut Punch, sluurrppp - very rich and creamy.
