Moxons (thank you)

[Cassius]

I'm bored with all these treads on William Rose where I don't go because I don't eat meat, so I want to say a big Thank You to Moxons for selling great fish and having super fishmongers who are always able to fillet for you and offer you advice on cooking, even when the shop is busy. The tuna I had this weekend was fantastic!

Hear, hear!

Cue numerous posts from bitter Nunhead residents about how Sopers is better...

(actually I must admit, Sopers is pretty decent)

Well I think that both Moxons and WR are fab, Sat nights dinner with ingrediants from both was amazing

Jeremy, Sopers is fantastic (i'm sure this isnt a shocker coming from non-organic Louisa), and they have been around for many many years and it is good value for money, but equally I dont see anything wrong with Moxons, bought some prawns from there last year and they were superb value for money. Both are decent but I am loyal to Sopers because they always have the best quality kippers.

I screwed up with this post so I deleted it.

The guys in Moxons are brilliant. I don't eat meat so can't compare to WR i'm afraid but even under pressure (as they were on Saturday-apparently their busiest Saturady ever thanks to Valentine's) they are so friendly and polite. Oh and the fish is top notch too. Think Sopers is great as well, just this is nearer now.

I may have been over charged in Moxons on Saturday - they we re selling shell on cooked prawns, medium sized, I had 2 handfuls - maybe 15...

what do you think that would cost?

(They were delicious over charge or not!!)

Sopers has the better eye candy for the ladeez.

[Louisa]

Huggers I agree wholeheartedly on this one! Yummy! :))

[Clazza]

Both Sopers & Moxons are great but yes Sopers for the eye candy :-)

[Huggers]

see you in the queue girls. You can't eat enough fish.

"I am loyal to Sopers because they always have the best quality kippers."

Kippers to eye-candy, Louisa? That's an admirable combo.
