The trouble with ED Foxy is this, most of the 'posh' type places, are actually a little bit 'wannabe'. It's never been 'cool', it's definitely not a Chelsea Or Putney, lacks the up market credibility, it's not even on a par with the village. Stick to the ED caf! Big portions, low prices.


Louisa.

Fox, it's simple.

Get up in the morning and wear what you wanna wear, what you feel good in, what sometimes you feel a bit strong in, or whatever. You don't need to look outside yourself. Cred sure ain't wondering what everyone else is doing.

I don't think you really give a toss what anyone else wears though, do you ?

This really was meant as a light hearted jolly jape...


I think The EDF is the wrong place for light hearted discussion...


Everyone takes everything so seriously.


As if I of all people really give a s**t about Street Cred..


There are clouds over East Dulwich today ... but above the clouds there is Brilliant Sunshine..


Foxy.

For me, there's nothing cool about caring where you are seen and who you are seen with... that's just deeply superficial. But then if I was that kind of person I'd never have chosen to live round here.


I had some of my happiest nights out in the decidedly uncool Swindon - was all about being surrounded by good friends and having a good laugh - was that great time in your early twenties when you've left home / escaped the watchful eye of your parents, but don't have too many adult responsibilities to worry about. Oh and Swindon might be a dump, but it was quite cheap and student debt wasn't the issue it is now, so you could afford to go out more.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
