I say chain, they only have 8 outlets around the city. But, they're in some pretty decent parts of London. Looks like ED has been overlooked in favour of our wayward (but much more interesting) younger brother. Oops.

Blenheim Grove is the location.


How many out of 10 do I get for this one Jeremy? ;-)

You have said that before. You need to get it soon. With your knife and fork.

Me too. But it's easy .. They are cheap to make. requires very little equipment and highly profitable..


They are probably here to stay.. well definitely here to stay.. probably a burger tax may be imposed as

it seems to be the government way forward with resolving any obesity problem. Cos I'm the Tax Man..

Also, the likes of McDonald's and Burger King are suffering at the rise of the 'hipster burger', it's a business model which clearly works, especially in London. I had been told Byron Burger were also interested in Peckham (and I genuinely enjoyed my meal I had at one of their restaurants), but surely one area doesn't need two fancy burger restaurants? Or does it?

Burgers and Kebabs are very different..


People eat Burgers any time of the day.. and most kebabs are eaten late at night. (generally speaking)


Pubs do burgers in the evening... but not kebabs.. Kebabs require specialist equipment.


I don't eat many kebabs these days..


Years ago it was a Fish'n'Chip supper after the Pictures.. often walking along the street..


Arrh .. the smell of HOT chips and Vinegar..

Yes burgers are round, or pillar shaped with a dome top


Kebabs are not round, or pillar shaped with a dome top


I think maybe alcohol plays a part in the consumption of the latter


That or plain stupidity possibily or sheer laziness, given how cheap & easy it is to make your own at home when shitfaced on a Fri/Sat nite

Absolutely, the business model that article refers to covers the whole of the UK where, granted, McDonald's is doing very well for itself. But here in London the 'hipster burger' phenomenon has taken huge chunks out of the cheap casual dining burger joints such as the one you quote from the guardian article. Have a read of this

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By first mate · Posted

      I am struggling to understand how Green policies translate to local issues? The Southwark Greens leaflet I received reads like a general wish list but is not locally specific. I know the same can be said of other political parties. What specifically are Greens plans for housing, protecting local parks, council tax, transport and roads/ pavement upkeep, CPZ/LTNs?

      Politician's moving from one party to another, especially when local is worth discussing. You have to wonder what they are driven by, and particularly in this instance, as their new party is moving in strange directions.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      To be fair to Sue, she doesn't have to explain or justify why she supports or wants to vote for any party. That is the same for everyone. We are free to decide which party best reflects what we think is important to us. Discussing the stances/ policies of parties, in a general discussion, can be done without targetting anyone commenting here. Politics is just a point of view at the end of the day.  Different things are important to different people, often for very valid reasons. Let's be respectful of that.  My opinion is that if say the Labour Party wants to understand why it is losing supporters to the Greens, it needs to listen to and understand the reasons why. That theme has been explored in this thread a little through the discussion around councillor McAsh. The same is true of the Tories losing support to Reform and the Libdems. Let's not also assume that every member of every party is completely on board with every policy of the leadership of that party either. You only have to look at how backbenchers have forced u-turns from Starmer's cabinet on things like Welfare Reform and WFA to see that.

      Bitten by dog on Heber Road

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      As a compromise I'd be prepared to trial the reintroduction of dog licensing. The annual licence fee would be the same as road tax for Range Rover (same carbon emissions as a dog) and would require owners to pass a responsible dog ownership exam, the dogs would need to pass training and a behaviour exam and their DNA would need to be kept on record to identify the owners who leave dog shit all over the pavements, so that they can be jailed.
