Jeremy Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Hmm... General Store on Bellenden Rd always have some interesting looking tomatoes in. Assorted varieties. They could probably advise which ones are the most "really tasty". Not a cheap shop though.

Baggs Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Not a cheap shop generally but often their price per kilo on seasonal basics - Tomatoes, potatoes etc. is better than village grocer + free herbs.

numbers Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 English tomatoes are great. I'd go with Artful's suggestion. Barry's has certainly upped its game.

stringvest Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 The greengrocer in Nunhead has good suppliers. I don''t think he goes to the wholesale market anymore. Its better when you can supply your own shop and go round tasting a tomato or satsuma before you buy boxes of them for sale.The best tasting tomatoes I EVER tasted were from borough market when it was a wholesale fruit and veg market. They were ENGLISH and branded Dinky"s Minnies, Tillies and Dixies or some other mousey names with mousey pictures on the box.The weirdest bag of potatoes came from HORSES BONES FARM of Romney Marsh, on the sack was their trademark a horrible horse skeleton. They were very good muddy spuds, and when we opened a the sack a toad popped out.There is a fruit and veg shop on Lordship Lane, everytime I see there display, I want to rearrange it for them so its colourful, they stick all green things together, they could break it up a bit with a red onion or some carrots etc !!!! It annoys me .. no effort !! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/68595-really-good-tomatoes/#findComment-883136 Share on other sites More sharing options...
