Hi all


Does anyone know of a good fish and chip shop in the East Dulwich area or surrounding areas that also does curry sauce


I'd never really heard of the combo until I lived in Lincoln. Now, my partner is a Scot and pining for chips and curry sauce


I'm planning on taking him to the Sea Cow for some good quality fish/chip/tartare sauce eating


Any suggestions very welcome

Dulwich Fryer near ED station gets my vote. Sea Cow may have good quality fish, but the chips tend to disappoint.


I think Dulwich Fryer has curry sauce. But if you can't find it at the chippy, you could try the cheapo curry sauce from Sainsburys...

A bit further afield but Thank Cod for Ken's on Half Moon Lane is a great, traditional chippie. Am from Yorkshire and used to a certain chippie chip (not meaning to generalise but Southern chips tend to be a bit firm and potatoe-y). Ken totally hits the spot and his curry sauce isn't bad either!

Absolutely! They should definitely be made from potatoes but - IMHO - I don't think that they should be like a potato. Imagine if a potato is Bruce Willis, a chippie chip should be Ryan Gosling. A chippie chip should have structure but still be a bit soft and fluffy on the inside and without a hint of superfluous grease. It goes without saying that they need to be hot! I find that the disappointing ones have too much bite - the texture is almost al dente. Clearly, I need to get a life and stop thinking about chips (and/or Ryan Gosling).

Ah, Sarahf, you are a true connoisseur of the chip. I've been lucky enough only to have had that bad chip experience with poorly prepared oven chips. Usually made by me!


I now have a stinking cold so our Sunday jaunt around the park and to the chippie is in jeopardy. :(


I may just send OH on the bus with my requests. We're on the Old Kent Road so not exactly local.


Hoping to be by the end of the year :)

Another vote for Ken's. Worth a short trip. Especially if you catch them just having cooked up a fresh batch of chips.

Quite a few Chinese takeaways have the chips and curry sauce option :) I am from Manchester so it's chips & gravy as a rare treat for me and also chips in a bread roll / bun (chip barm if you're a northerner) which Southerners think is totally nuts too but worth a try! mmm now craving junk despite my shreddies haha

I think Ken's is an appallingly poor quality chippy to be honest. i was originally from Yorkshire too and have lived near that fish and chip shop on Half Mooon Lane for years, it's really not the best.

I love this analogy :)

Thank you all for your recommendations. They have been very helpful.


We went to Fish Chips & More today after visiting friends in Nunhead


All I can say is wow! They were so welcoming and the restaurant area is lovely and clean. The loos were spotless too- big thumbs up from me.


We both had haddock and chips and my partner had his beloved curry sauce :)


We will definitely be going back


:D x

      Section 20

      By Cyclemonkey · Posted

      Ok.  You have bigger problems than this s20 notice.  How have you let one freeholder dominate things.  You both have the equal right to decide how to manage the communal areas of the property.  I would get some legal advice on your duties and rights as a freeholder and then request a meeting  to reset the relationship. Also as noted in other posts is the front yard and door actually the responsibility of the freeholder.  These are all questions you should ask in your S20 response.

      Baby-Friendly Screenings at East Dulwich Picturehouse – Too Restrictive?

      By Angelina · Posted

      seems perfectly sensible to restrict cert 18 but would have thought cert 15 are acceptable. we don't know what the complaint was or if the measures taken by the cinema address it or go too far. if there was a scenario when an infant was in a regular screening, then I would completely understand the complaint. if the complaint was from someone who attended a parent screening, then - well, I guess it depends what was on! if the complaint was from someone who has not involvement or experience then the cinema surely wouldn't have taken measures based  on it

      Laptop not sorted any more 😭😭😭

      By Sue · Posted

      Unbelievable. My laptop ran fine for a while and now it's got the blue screen of death on startup. I've just been running through all the options with Which Tech, and nothing they have tried (rollback etc etc) has sorted it. So I've got to crawl back to John Lewis and I guess it will be back to the factory reset 😭 BUT Also unbelievable. Since the BSOD I have been using my old Dell laptop, which nobody could fix either. It runs Windows 10, and had been running at watching paint dry speed, as indeed it was when I started using it again recently due to the problems with the new one. It's quite old, and it  wasn't worth paying to get anything hardware related sorted given the move to Windows 11, which was why I bought a new one. BUT!!! There was a Windows 10 update recently. And since then the Dell has been running at lightning speed 😮 It probably won't now I've posted this 🤣
