Had a stroll down EDR this afternoon and noticed the former Chinese buffet place next to Rose's fish and chip shop is about to become Jaflong Indian-Asian buffet (new sign up and work going on inside). Looks nice a good prices too from what I could see (prices are written up on the signage). Have these people left LL? I'm sure they had a restaurant there.

Never had cause to give Jaflong a bad review.. Why would I of continued to use them for years if I had. ?


I VERY seldom give bad reviews about any particular restaurant.. I don't actually use many of them.

If memory serves you fell out with them after they complained to you because they saw you in another restaurant?

No.. There was conflict over an interview with a local paper with one restaurant and a supposed FREE review and an inclusion of a Half page ad. for another restaurant.


The half page Ad. was not Free but a PAID Ad.


I sort of got in the middle of it all.


That is all I can say here on the matter..

Absolutely not. I did not give a review to anyone about any restaurant.

Someone supposedly from a local paper visited Jaflong (2-3 years ago)took photos and offerd a free Ad.


The Ad did not appear .. but a Half page Ad for an other restaurant did. That was a PAID Ad.


That's all..

Are you drunk.. I had absolutely nothing to do with any Ad.

I did not speak to any one. I did not take.. supply .. feature in any picture..

I did not speak to any paper .. reporter..


I eat in most of the Indian restaurants with the Curry Club and independantly.


all this started because SUE wrote.

Which is Total B*****ks..


As far as I can make out 2-3 years on, Jaflong were scammed by a fake reporter..

and I know no details. Perhap they paid for what they thought was a 'Genuin'Ad that did not appear.


Then the other Ad appeared so Jaflong were angry they had been duped.


Hope that helps.

Living up this end of ED, having a curry house very locally is welcome.


If Jaflong continues to allow BYOB then that should benefit the liquor sales in the Londis and Hop Burns & Black either side.


Perhaps also the Fire Ices ice-cream shop if people dont fancy a sorbet in a coconut shell.


Good to see some changes on the Lane with the Jaflong site becoming available and the corner site opposite yet to open.

Never been a huge fan of Jaflong, but the ability to drink fancy beer with my dinner does sound tempting.

Fabulous Ice Fires is excellent, really love their ice cream, but I don't think it's open in the evening. Would be nice to see some of our local Indian restaurants do a proper dessert, rather than just the usual rubbish.

It was a restaurant across the road from Jafflong, if that helps.


ETA: Or very close to Jafflong, anyway, because they could see it from their place :)


ETA: Or perhaps I have totally dreamed the conversation? Don't think so, though, to the best of my knowledge I have never dreamed about you, Fox. Yet :))

      Can anybody recommend a good local plant nursery or garden centre?

      By Sue · Posted

      I haven't used the RHS online shop, however to the best of my knowledge none of the RHS gardens such as Wisley have a nursery (though they may sell plants there) , so whatever plants the RHS are selling will be grown elsewhere. It might be worth trying to find out where they get their retail plants from (it could be several different places, eg one for perennials, one for shrubs) and then googling reviews of those nurseries. I may be wrong, but I'm  not convinced that buying from the RHS necessarily ensures a good plant. I once bought a perennial wallflower (Bowles Mauve) from Kew (not RHS, but you would expect good quality)  which looked fine when I bought it, but didn't last long. I don't think it was due to my neglect, but who knows. It was in a large pot by my front door, where it got a lot of sun, so I have no idea what went wrong. Thanks for the recommendation for Croxted Road. I wonder if they can suggest some plants which I can put in the area  under my bird feeders to deter the wood pigeons, who have transformed a large part of my very small garden into bare earth, and destroyed some treasured plants which I had had for years. Btw I'm sure you know this, but be very careful with Euphorbias. If you get any sap on your skin and it is exposed to sunlight, you will get an absolutely massive blister. I speak from past experience 😭

      Local COVID jabs

      By Sue · Posted

      Thanks ianr. That's an interesting book! I see it says side effects are more common after the second dose of Moderna (page 13). I would have booked my jab for another week if I'd known. Kicking myself now. I wonder why this sort of thing isn't more widely publicised. I suppose partly for cost reasons and partly because they don't want to put people off having the jab.

      By Katherty · Posted

      It's useful to see these recommendations for local gardening centres. Wondering if anyone has used the RHS online plant shop, and if you'd recommend that?    Currently trying to choose some new plants for our small garden!  I got some good euphorbia from Croxted Road the other day. I had asked for them a previous week, and they said they'd put some aside for me when they got some in. They did and gave me a call. It seemed a good service with friendly staff.

      Free planters/troughs for school project

      By Roddy · Posted

      Good morning! Just posting on the off-chance anyone has any free planters/troughs (raised or otherwise) with plenty of life in them for a school project in Croydon?  I could collect locally. Also thinking about making a small wildlife pond there and would love a free old Belfast sink if anyone knows where I can get one, but I know that’s a big ask! Thanks in advance.
