  • What, since you started going there?

  • Lols.

    Portugese noshup has lots of places free.

  • Anyone got any idea what that lame sounding Illusioneer place is going to be, on HML? (odds on that snowy knows the skinny)

  • they have toilets at the effra now?

    who knew!

  • still loving the old post office bakery down on landor road...
    and someone was telling me that portuguese deli opposite argos has won some sort of award, it was always great now its going to be over run it'll be hell to get some olives and salami now

  • I'm sure you can find some salami on Clapham Common...

  • Boom Tish. Piss off Westie ;-)

  • West Indies for me...

    Later kidz.

    Great bakery, shit deli... Plastic mozarella, crap parmesan, need I go on? Can't believe people go in there... I go to the other Portuguese place just past Mash Brothers now, brilliant but fuck all Italian stuff if that's your bag...

  • The Effra's shit - Jonny and Clintsmoker were in there last night. And Snowy and Go-Ellis...

  • really, has it gone so far downhill in the ten months i've been away, I only went in for some veg, the aforementioned salami and olives, and every so often pancetta.

    there used to be a great old italian deli on south lambeth road, used to have a sign saying di leto over the door. Was great hanging out with the old italian women as they picked out two or three loaves of bread and haggled over the salami. Think the family sold out and now its a cost cutter.

    Though there is a nice small deli down in bonnington sq, close to vauxhall, but it feels a bit expensive...

  • mergeatron, but fair enough.

  • There was a great place at the end of Brixton Road by the Oval but it's under new management now... £€$!!!

  • "As for me, I'm thinking about popping to the Sketch private view at the Regent next Thursday. Anyone else?"

    Mashton - Yes! Gwyn and I know Lisa who runs it, the artists work is going to be on sale, mostly figurative, but some a bit more abstract things, all less than £100. Oh and a free drink too!

  • My missus' old man used to have a top notch Italian deli in Dulwich Village but it's now run by his ex-business partner, long story.

    I'm an SE27er. Fuck all in W. Norwood but it's close enough to Crystal Palace, HH and Boogie down Brixton.

    Actually, That's a lie, Beamish and Mcglue is pretty good for that fancy orgasmic food and the new fishmonger is pretty safe.

  • and you,ve got a tescos, sainsburys and a co op all within spitting distance of each other. so thats your botulism needs catered for right there.

    Try the deli/italian shop by the italian church near oval

  • The Effra full of wetlips and vagines.... and they are slowly starting to radiate to the surrounding area.
    Barmaids are nice to look at, but i'd rather look at an ugly one who could get me a drink within half an hour of getting there... They need a lesson from Gwyn in bar managment skills and general awesomness.

    I shall be checking out the queens head again though, Dark Times was the first time i've been in in years... it's much better than it was as the Far Side.

  • you won't be allowed back

  • the joys of face paint!.....

  • a valid point, well made.

    Or a slightly lower bar so they know you're there...

    unfortunatley, i don't think you have the ability to hide behind face paint... maybe with the loss of 'tache you could get away with it though. Wear a hat, i'm sure that'l help.

    we should go in on saturday, plonk ourselves at the bar and start double-barreling shots. see how long it takes him to click.

  • ^great idea.

    Oof!
