Ok, so I started trying to read through the whole thread but my eyeballs hurt. I'm putting together a list of local celebs I want to target for some charidee work - I want locals that have a vested interest in the kids in the area. I use the term "area" loosely - obviously I don't think the well-nourished, long haired young offsprings of Dulwich and its environs need my help - thinking more in terms of our south london neighbours.


Anyway, I need people who might merit a photo in the press - from what I can see so far, I've got: Des'Ree, Timothy Spall, Jenny Eclair, Nesbitt, Jo Brand, Adrian Lester (do we think he local, or tourist)? anyone add any more?

I saw AndrewDBlack by Cafe Nero today and also Ant strolling past Camberwell Pizza Hut in a nonchalant manner with a very nice stripy jersey. I would said hello, but I was on a bus. Do they count?


Adrian Lester is local, I've seen him on the train. In this case we were both on the train. I would have said hello, but we have not been introduced.

I've been in East Dulwich for almost a month & not seen anyone famous but the minute my girlfriend arrives from Australia Sandi Toksvig (& female friend) walked right in her, almost knocking her over & apologised, of course Treena had NO idea who had almost knocked her flying but I was stood in OMG mode before explaining who Sandi is.

    • Agree with @Sue the Dog is awful-nice building awful food. We like The Rossendale and Watsons
    • There are so many variables. Good chefs can having bad nights, post-Brexit staff shortages, your dish might be brilliant, your friend might order something that's inedible. In the end I think the best option is just to go to the restaurant which has the best overall reviews. If all the reviews are bad then avoid, but even if all the reviews are good that's not a cast iron gaurantee. 
    • The trouble is that pub management and chefs are constantly changing, so what might be fantastic on one occasion  becomes terrible a short time later, and vice versa. Two of the worst pub lunches I've had locally were at the Dog in the village and the Plough, but both those were some time ago. We had an absolutely appalling Christmas lunch on Christmas Day at The Cherry Tree, which was also exorbitantly expensive, so unless their chef (I use the term loosely) has changed, I wouldn't advise eating there. The menu looked amazing. We thought we would treat ourselves. Never again 😭
    • If you've seen the original longer post then you'll know that you've taken that out of context. I don't charge but didn't feel I even needed to say that – you've made it sound like I do charge and that's why I deleted this part of the post saying I don't charge. When I read back what I'd written it sounded like I was defending myself against criticisms that hadn't even been made so i cut it out. And now you've made that kind of criticism anyway I should've left it in.  What do you mean "not charging people to read your reviews of their local restaurants."?  You make it sound like i'm sneaking into SE22 from somewhere else. I live here - they are reviews of my local restaurants!
