Potholes along Grove Lane and other surrounding areas
chica1 replied to chica1's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Please don't tell me you are not bothered by all these potholes at all? Not only it will damage vehicles but most of all it will cause accidents and traffics! Doesn't anyone care anymore?? -

I was dealing with them I think last year or year before, can't quite remember when.:-$ So they've been in business for sometime now but only managed to open a shop this year & I say good luck to them, they're good guys & really care for their customers. Too bad we never concluded on any business together...I was just too fussy.

Personally I don't think think I could eat it. -

If you're going anywhere near the Westfield Mall then bus 148 goes straight there, no hassle & can enjoy reading a book and a paper back to back. -
mr stephen matthews & mrs marilyn matthews.......

Try Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter. -
That premises would have been better put to use with a local M&S....now see people flock en masse.

Sorry but one must be that gullible if they are easily conned by someone like that woman. Surely soon as you open the door faced by this begging hustler esp if she does not look the part, you should at that instance already smell a rat! Why not say you don't have money either and close the door on her face, just like that!

I always ignore the woman hanging around at the front of Somerfields esp when she's with a child or handing out something...I can't abide with projecting some emotional blackmail...I hate it! The guy outside Sainsburys selling Big Issues though is not a problem to me, as he seems like a nice man....not pushy & also polite. Bought once from him but ever since just politely declining to buy again.

I like a proper Chinese restaurant/takeaway as in Chinatown style eg Lee Ho Fook in Gerrard St, Kam Tong in Queensway with hanging roast duck, char sui pork, crispy pork on display ready for takeaway!!!

Fight in Sainsburys this afternoon (January 03) (Lounged)

I don't understand, why was this thread moved from General ED issues?? I thought it's perfectly placed there as it were....I didn't think it was a big deal to have it moved to Lounge. -

If you are in a customer facing work environment there is no room for having sense of apathy, boredom, or anything of negative attitude. And no, I've never worked in Supermarket, if that's what you mean....but that's has nothing to do with what's being discussed here. Anyway before I digress further... heroic job by that lady, Niki, maybe Sainsburys could hire her! -

In US, security guards in depots or warehouses (B&Q, Homebase equivalent in UK) even have guns (not that I want same practice here). But that role is taken very seriously and those guards are also totally alert. I've observed some SGs in Sainsburys sometimes and they are yawning, dragging their feet, staring at a distance, I feel like making this point to Justin King (CEO) actually...and same goes with the cashiers who more often than not have long faces and rude. -

Security guards are just that, they are there to provide a secure environment be it against shoplifters, fights, nuances, etc. They are trained for such role and if the Sainsburys's SGs are not then they should not be employed. -

getting to Canary Wharf from East D/Nunhead
chica1 replied to emc's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Bus 381 (final destination Waterloo) goes to Surrey Quays, Canada Water, etc. I think you can catch it from Peckham somewhere. -
Keep your hair on Ben...we are all entitled to express opinions here whether you are in agreement or not & if you're that bored with my opinion then you didn't need to reply to my last post. I simply reminded you of the subject of this thread in case you forgot since you are the one who wanted us all to stay away from the "sushi" subject. And BTW FORUMS are there for everyone to express opinions negative & positive & not just an appreciation forum unless specifically stated! Gawd you should try visit other forums other than EDF but be prepared not to have a heart attack!! I'm out of here until I log in again to give my unbiased opinion on the sushi once I've tried it. ciao

In case you overlooked but the title of this thread is - "new bar 'BOHO' serving sushi" -which is no doubt being flogged by the owner. Hence sushi is the main topic for discussion.

ok i'll let you know...
-
Going in & asking them don't think will give us the answer. Only way is to try & eat them yourself. So..when would be the best day to go to Boho with the intention of having sushi as opposed to drinking & I'll take my Japanese friend with me who can judge the food?
-
Somehow I can't imagine a bar would be able to serve proper & even edible sushi at all....not with the sort of establishment like Boho. Sushi is handled with care & lots of preparations for it to be consumed fresh. Boho seems more of drinks first then "sushi" as a side dish in which case their sushi is probably bought ready made & stored in the fridge until it's sold. In which case one might end up eating an old sushi. Or am I being unreasonable & critical.
-
On the grand opening this saturday , will you be serving food/sushi or just drinks??
-
Can someone tell me where this BOHO bar is actually situated...some reference pt will be helpful.:) I'll take my Japanese friend with me on Sat & she can judge the food.
