Burro e Salvia, the artisan fresh pasta shop of Shoreditch, is opening in East Dulwich in January. Fresh pasta will be made on the premises on a daily basis to buy and bring home, and a few seats will be available to dine in. And of course the fun pasta workshops will be organised as well on a monthly basis. A new neighbour to the much loved foodie corner with Moxon's, Franklin's, William Rose...www.burroesalvia.co.uk

What are you talking about... ?


I have praised many local businesses


Dulwich Tandoori


Jaflong


Hisar


EDT


Dulwich DIY


I even wrote that I thought the recent refurb of Manco Franca was the best refurb ever. even if I don't eat pizza.


I wrote good reports about Locale in when they were around.


Praised Icelands Too down market for many here.


Hirst's Bakery


I give credit to any place that gives me good service..


I had a shop in Uplands road in 1993. I was one of the first people to have a shop here

when North Cross was virtually derelict.

Foxy, it's not that you're down on all businesses, but you definitely come across to me, from your comments, as someone who plainly preferred LL as it was 5, 10 or 15 years ago and would rather it went back to that. And your list of businesses above rather reinforces that to me.

LM I priase a lot of local businesses too in fact I even recall having to promote local indepedents on here some had not visited before in the area such as Ayres and Sopers. I am a regular at the Kebab and Wine and Iceland too. I'm all about retail diversity, what angers me is pretentious shops aimed at pretentious people who float into ED wanting the Chelsea lifestyle on a south of the river budget. How many estate agents/pizza/indian/Italian/gift shops does one area need?


Louisa.

LondonMix or anyone else here..


Take a stroll with me down Lordship lane any time of day and just see how many

people know me and even wave.


I'm well known to many local businesses and on friendly terms.


Siduhe..


Lordship lane and North Cross have developed over the 35 years I have been here in East Dulwich.

I used Curry Cabin back in 1972 when the guy still there was 16. When I lived in Peckham.


...and Golden Tandoori (N.C. Rd) back in the early eighties even before Faruk was there and there was

a Indian lady serving food. One of the very few Indian rests. open on a Sunday afternoon.


The Turkish deli was once Greek and owned by a friend of mine's family.


I have seen many changes and probably know LL as well as anyone else here.


So I have continued to adopt to change over the years...


..But I agree with Louisa in what she said above..

edcam, the jist seems to be.... curry is good and helps you live longer. Having 8 curry houses on the lane is great and they last without doing much visible business because they are busy all the time. Italian food on the other hand is bad and we have too many Italian eateries. Cafes / coffee shops generally are also bad - why bother when you can do it at home?

    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
