Food

Looking for good/great cake shops in south london need to get a special cake for an anniversary party. If you know of any let me
Know.
Bit of a short notice one.

Edit; trying to avoid the Portuguese bakers as missus isn’t partial to their icing, finds it too sweet

Konditor near Waterloo

Edit: only just South but could work.

That’s been mentioned.

Will check out

Arapina - have branches in Deptford & Dulwich.

what does one do with all the delicious left over pickle juice / vinegar from pickled onions, pickled beetroot, pickled walnuts and pickled gherkins .... apart from making more of your own pickle.

tried grating carrot in left over pickled beetroot juice a while back and that was a nice combo

any recipes ? marinate some meat in the juice or add to a stew ? for a bit of tart flavouring

Can be added to buttermilk for a fried chicken marimade. Also pickleback shots if you are brave.

+1 for Konditor

plus one for pickleback shots, have some pickle juice in a jar just for this purpose.

I asked the same question here a while ago when I had quite a lot of jalapeño brine and it made the best fried chicken brine ever, thanks to a handy suggestion from some fine fellow here

New Chinese supermarket in the Olympic Park, no beers yet but they’ve applied for a licence

Good work 👏

Poppy seeds surely?

Something East European and dumpling-like?

My parents are moving soon. The local chippy is good, but the local Indian (4.8 from 55 reviews) is a pioneer of fusion food:

Yes, it's plum dumplings with ground poppy seeds, icing sugar and melted butter.
An approximation of a Germknödel.

Yessss!
I have to make the ones with apricots inside, thanks for reminding me.

Looks great! Nice plate choice as well 🙂

..read that as "for a bit of fart flavouring"

Unfortunately that's not mine, mine was the filthy version above.

Spent most of today making a birthday cake

I think I have burnt out my chocolate tasting senses
