For Christ's sake, I don't read this section of the forum for a couple of days and the world has gone mad!


Why would susyp come on here and make up some total lie about a random establishment?!?!?!? I believe you Louisa that this is very unlike the place in question, but that doesn't mean that everyone that has ever eaten there has had a good experience.....


I would suggest susy try it again, and see how it goes. Then post on here....


(sorry if you all ready have, but I couldn't bring myself to read anymore!).


I've not eaten there, and have onlt heard good things from friends who have, so Mrs Keef and I plan to try it......


Thing is Louisa, you know the owners, which is fair enough... I am very good friends with the guys at the CPT, and love the pub, but if someone came on here and said they'd had a crap night and a dodgy pint there, I wouldn't call them a liar.

I went there. I had scallops. They were quite nice.


I know that's not very helpful but I thought I'd stand out more if I took a drearily middle-of-the-road opinion. I'm going there on Friday with my new girlfriend. I say that as a way of crowbarring in the fact that I have a new girlfriend.

Ok let's not go back over all this again folks. I suggest that rather Louisa go in and upset herself and probably the owners (who by all accounts, are decent people), I go back in there and if everything is as good as everyone says it is (and the food WAS good when I went), I will let bygones be bygones and post a message to that effect. OK?:))


Next time I'll post about a missing cat, or something....

Louisa, as I think has been noted before, is not a real person, but a forum construct designed to wind-up "incomers" (ho-hum, how hilarious) and it's something "she" (actually a 31 year old banker called Roland who's recently moved here from Clapham) does very well. The fact that people still take any notice amazes me. Only a construct could possibly get any enjoyment from banging on and on and on and on about how ED was so much better when it was populated by greasy-haired, varicose-pinned, damp-cardy-wearing, zip-up-bootie-sporting, penury-struck pensioners eating cold gravel 'round a one bar fire and fretting about keeping a decent supply of newspaper in the outside "lavvy".

Review of Le Moulin - as promised - and BIG confession......!


I went to Le Moulin at the end of last week, to see if i liked it more the second time around. As we pitched up merrily along Lordship Lane - horror of horrors , I realised the restaurant that I had thought was Le Moulin was actually....Le Chardon....!! So, by now of course I was completely guiltstruck, we wandered the length and breadth of Lordship Lane looking for aforementioned restaurant. Found it tucked away down the other end of Lordship Lane (the clues were there in this thread - next to the Plough!). Went in, to a candle lit table and warm welcome (now almost beside myself with guilt). We had the most delicious meal, with charming service. It's a fantastic gem of a restaurant, and I must apologise for getting my facts so spectacularly wrong.... the only saving grace is that now i have found a lovely french restaurant in the area, without any of the pretensions of the others.


thought i should update this thread because if you google "Le Moulin", this comes up, and I wouldn;t want to put off prospective customers


i;ll pm this to louisa as well!


.....i;ll get my coat....

Ouch SusyP - this must hurt!


To be honest I'm surprised one of us didn't pick up on that before - re-reading your description of what you thought was Moulin perfectly describes the experiences I have had in le Chardon at least 50% of the time I have been in there whereas I've never had a bad experience at Le Moulin


So you are treating the forum to a slap up meal at Le Moulin then to make up for it?? ;-)

      Just found these matches!

      Oh yes, it could have been about there, I can't remember exactly. At one point there seemed to be a load of pizza places opening on NCR. I vaguely remember the one we used to use was put out of business by another one which opened. Wasn't Grace and Favour's food offering more of a tea shop at the back of the actual shop? If memory serves the owner, whose name escapes me now, was one of the earliest people I know to move to Hastings. Which must now be crammed with South East Londoners 🤣

      The Mansion Tax

      By James Barber · Posted

      Hi Dogkennelhillbilly, You won't be aware that i proposed infill sites for housing in East Dulwich - the garages on Bassano Street and Henslowe that respectively became 1-4 Dill Terrace family houses and the 78, 80, 80A Henslowe Street family houses. These were council owned garages and it was frustrating how slow the council was to go from my idea to completion (roughly eight years). East Dulwich has some other vacant WW2 bomb sites I'm guessing that the private land owners have been sitting on.Owe for a land tax for vacant land.  WRT to the builders yard by East dulwich station. Southwark Council has an agreed policy the area should remain suburban 2/3 storeys maximum. But the approved scheme is 9 storeys of student accommodation. Very hard to put this genie back in the bottle. The council has recently publicly stated lower ratios of social housing will be required. I will be amazed if the developer doesn't submit another application now they have the 9 storeys approved but with significantly less social housing. The less social housing the higher the land values. The higher the land values the less social housing viability reports state are possible.  If we really want to increase home supply - Southwark have over 6,000 empty homes. Vancouver charges a low % of the value of empty homes and rapidly eased this problem. Parts of Wales have introduced under Article 4 planning permission is required for second homes seeing within 12 months a dramatic decrease in property prices. Southwark Council have Article 4 requirements - why not add this one? It takes National political will to solve this AND regional and local authorities such as the second home council tax premium and these being used promptly.

      Any interest in a Barter scheme?

      By Sue · Posted

      https://www.letslinkuk.net/ I'm interested to know why the OP didn't find this sort of scheme to work, as I would have thought it was much harder to find someone to do a direct exchange with? Does anybody else have experience of a scheme like this? Happy to be persuaded!
