Good night at Ganapati, good food and company. My thoughts are that Ganapati is somewhat expensive for what it provides. It identifies its food as being south Indian street food, but at ?36 a head, that is very expensive street food.


Granted the menu is not the usual curry house menu, but the ingredients are the same, the decor is south Indian cafe stylee so attractive but basic and the rent in that part of Peckham is unlikely to be hugely inflated. So why the high prices? I guess because they can and it is a way of differentiating themselves from the competition. They are usually busy, although there were a number of empty tables yesterday.


I wonder whether some competition, another Indian restaurant opening in Bellenden would bring prices down, as people would have an alternative in that part of town?


Anyway, February - Lets go Swadesh as we did Mirash in December. Wednesday 29 February.

    • A beer in the garden would have been nice, I'm sure! Mine was a meal inside. I don't remember much about it except that it was horrible.
    • Went to the Harvester a couple of times to have a beer in the garden, it was quite popular and had a 'certain' charm. 
    • I never went in The Grove when it was a pub, but I had a meal there once when it was a Harvester (I used to occasionally be a Mystery Shopper, and I was persuaded to go and have this meal because it was a bank holiday and they couldn't find anyone else to do it.) It was truly horrible. At least I got paid for eating it, albeit not very much, but I think I would have paid not to have to eat it. If it becomes an "affordable" restaurant again, I hope at least it has decent food. Why do "these youngsters" need "adult help" to be enterprising? They aren't six year olds! 
    • At the end of the day, whilst these youngsters have been enterprising presumably with adult help & I also assume no local youth group - the fact remains that it is a prime site fir redevelopment be it a supermarket - Aldi, Lidel whatever or social housing which, let’s be honest here lots  of people need.   Know Idea why has been derelict gor do long anyhow, but somewhere on this site I think there is a problem with who owns it. And let’s not forget the homeless man who slept there - Front on Lordship Lane who had his home destroyed by I assume vandals a couple of years ago.
