We tried Si Mangia on Friday night after heading down the road bound for a juicy Herne-burger, only to find the pub closed for a private function. Despite its lacklustre location, the restaurant was fantastic, and the Italian sausage with borlotti beans and spaghetti was to die for. Hope this sparks the start of a Forest Hill Road makeover. What a novelty to walk out of the front door and turn right for dinner, instead of heading straight for Lordship Lane.
