Hello and welcome Gabriele, I'm not Italian, I'm Irish. Close enough though.

Matriarchily dominated, bossed by The Pope and a carbohydrate based diet. Alike as two peas. In different pods.

Apart from the piss artist thing we're so alike.


Sorry Gabriele I ramble, welcome once again, stick around.

haha - got you all suspicious with my excitment for Il Mirto!!!

"However,I think she is looking for "living" Italians ......this time round. "


warf !


Not sure any of them died in there, the brits were not quite that bad ! although they were probably safer in there than out in ED, the cappucino in ED is so bad that it's enough to kill. God knows what it would have been like in the 40's, and people then were not as 'educated' as the foodies of ED !

Ha ha ha ha my name is Luisa not 'Luisa'! Who else is there that signs off lavishing praise on Il Mirto?!

I think you may have been on this forum for far too long and become very suspicious and jaded. You obviously don't understand how exciting it is for an Italian to have a Italian restaurant like Il Mirto move in 5 minutes away. Good Italian food and bring your own booze is heaven for me. I'm quite enjoying being accused as a fraud - if I could be bothered and wanted to, is there anyway that i could prove that I'm not?

I think you (and me) seem to have got the wrong end of the stick. The 'Luisa' I'm talking about (Louisa) doesn't sign off with praise for Il Mirto but stamps her name at the bottom of her rant. Much like you did in the post that attracted my attention and led me to suspect that our little firebrand was trying to pass herself off as a continental johnny foreigner.


Ciao for now.

    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
    • Just be careful to know exactly what they cover and the limits. i use Many Pets and Medivet, as I think one of the vets is exceptionally good. Some of the NHV are, but I’ve had a couple I’ve not liked at all.  I need consistency and to feel that they actually care more about the animals than the money.
