> At what point does a drink become soup?


I would dare to suggest that the two are not mutually exclusive. Some soups can be simulataneously both drinks and soups. However, once it contains any solid bits, or has been thickened to a "creamy" texture, it is no longer a drink.

Some time back in the 80's in the Herne Tavern my beer had lumps in...


I returned it to the bar where I was told by the 'Landlady' ?

"It's real ale Luv.. It's supposed to have lumps in it. It's the yeast.'


I told her.. "No it's not yeast.. You havn't cleaned your pipes. "


That was the last time I ever went in The Herne. never been back..

Also my missus told me she was leaving me whilst sitting in the bay window of the Herne.. so no fond memories of the place.

Just can't get my head around drinking soup from a cup.. Has to be a bowl and spoon...


Like drinking beer .. Has to be a glass glass.. not plastic.

Well that makes ALL the difference, where can we get some ?


Actually, what is 'authentically simmered'


Is there a costume involved ?


I'd like that

    • Does anyone know what local pubs/restaurants will be open this year for Xmas serving lunch? 
    • That’s interesting, Dulwich Dweller; my 70 yr old neighbour told me 2 weeks ago that he’d left work early to go and book in person (being uncomfortable with all the online & app stuff) and was explicitly told that he needed to go away and book online. He’s not the sort of person to be insistent and, like a lot of older people, a bit embarrassed at his lack of digital ability, so he left without the appointment . This is my point about inconsistency, since his experience was quite different from yours. I’m beginning think that it rather depends on who, at Reception, you speak to on day…
    • Wow, never had a disappointing meal there since they opened.. guess like every establishment, depends on the chef.. All for allowing an off day - good of you to post.. much better than chains - had awful service at Gail’s for eg..be it cake and tea or a meal.. They are so nice and accommodating..       
    • "I tried Viet Flavour and was disappointed.  Their summer rolls especially were not at all good, stodgy and flavourless.  Pho-OK.  I'm hoping it will get better " Back in June I posted as above.  I am glad to report that either the first time I went the restaurant was having an off day, or they have upped their game.  I ordered the same things.  The summer roll was exactly as it should be, and had a lovely dipping sauce. The Pho was delicious.  My brother who was with me wanted to give it 10/10 but I always think you should leave room for improvement so gave it 9/10.  Staff were lovely.  I am so glad because I love Vietnamese food and now think I have a very good one just round the corner.
