rahrahrah your constant banging on about other people's opinions, just because they happen to be different to your own are pretty damn tiresome too. I could easily throw that yawn right back at you. Get over it. Some people like to hold local business to account for the right reasons rather than saying everything is lovely and cuddly just for the sake of it. That's life. Sensible critique keeps everyone on their toes.

Oh, do get over yourself! Please.


Just because you are on school holidays, doesn't excuse your irritating behaviour.

School holidays? Erm slightly confused by this comment. Get over myself? I'm merely defending myself against people claiming I am deliberately negative about new businesses, which is not the case. I would like more variety in the local restaurant scene, is that a crime? We currently lack a Mexican or Greek place of any description. As for the Chinese restaurant choices they are definitely way back in the 70s still. Your comment is suggesting I am not allowed to be critical of the ED sacred cow that is the restaurant scene, correct?

Utter nonsense another case of selective reading looking for Foxy & Louisa posts to sneer at..

Did you miss this one ?


When it was Andreas's it was a Greek shop and was owned by relatives of a guy I used to work with in Telecoms.


It is a great place and is indeed a rare example of a LL business actually flogging decent stuff.

Very helpful and friendly and unpretentious.

P.S. Bet no one comments on Foxy being positive.




Just one of many Foxy's positive posts. Like the ones on various Indian outlets, Dulwich DIY, SMBS,

Hisar, Clipper, Iceland...

P.S I get good service in other ED outlets but do not feel the need get hysterical and post here

every time I buy a cake, loaf of bread or cup of coffee.

1) it appears they are doing very well at the prices they are charging - hence their expansion to date

2) they'd be wrong to change a winning formula/price point

Arhh.. Nail on the head... I think.


If Franco Manca can make it work charging low, reasonable, realistic prices.


Then the suggestion that other businesses are having to charge over the top to cover rents

by unscrupulous landlords does not hold water.


You cant have it both ways..


I rest my case .

I have never slagged off this place.


I have only ever spoke about my dislike of Pizza and its nutritional values.


Even before it had opened I commented on the place being the best transformation of any outlet in E.D.


So give Foxy a break..

    • This is horrible to hear about. We used to get daily Police patrols on foot & even regular patrols on horseback in the area. I know our local station had some bad eggs, but the officers I came across in the area back then were all a fantastic bunch. Sadly nowadays the Met's presence is non-existent, bar the weekly walk from the SNT. I hope something gets done, arrests made and the victim some genuine support and counselling.   
    • Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.  
    • Same can be said for the current and prior governments 
    • Good afternoon, We are looking for a gardener to tidy up our climbing rose. It is very high, so the work will require someone with a tall ladder. can you please recommend anyone?  thanks s
