reasonably priced restaurants in ED

Recommended Posts

I'm visiting East Dulwich after several years away and want to go out to eat locally on one of the evenings but Ive been told all the restaurants are too expensive. Surely there are still places you can get a meal for ?30 a head without drinks? Is the curry cabin still there?
Yes, Curry Cabin is still there. I imagine you could get a good meal for ?30 a head without drinks in any of the many curry houses on Lordship Lane. And just slightly off the beaten track (Forest Hill Road) there is Si Mangia which is a friendly and unpretentious Italian restaurant which I would recommend.
Depends if you just wish to eat or eat well . At Patch and Franklins you could easily come in under budget for 2-course a la carte. Palmerston is a mite more so you'd be bang on budget there. ToastED you'd easily go over. Anywhere else and, in my experience, you're not going to be eating anything particularly memorable. The menu at French House looks very tempting and reasonably priced although I've not yet been.

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
