Ha. Or "Drongo's" or "Bogan's" or. . .

Serve small portions at high prices and call it 'So East Dulwich'


or pick a cool 70s font and go the whole retro mile: http://frs.monotypeimaging.com/ImagingService.ashx?imagetype=typeit&shopid=679673&width=738&TextSize=32&TextColor=%23000000&BgColor=%23ffffff&RenderText=East%20Dulwich%20Bistro

I am guessing you are an Aussie that wears "thongs" in the summer.

This may be true, but with a bestselling cheese named 'Coon' clearly Australians are not yet the masters of avoiding potential lost-in-translation cock-ups.

Interestingly, Pom is used in Australia for someone who barbecues in the rain. After having to ask a Aussie to light the damn thing first.

Hi guys.

Thank you so much for you response and ideas.

Myself and Alex really appreciate all of your input and are blown away from the response.

Please keep the ideas coming!

Nothing has stood out as yet.(I mean that in the nicest way possible).

Please don't get offended.

Your all going in the right direction.

I'm just going to write a few words on us and what we will be doing, so maybe that can help.

We are basically two young(ish) guys, who both have had a dream to open a restaurant ever since starting in hospitality.

We are starting off small but have massive plans to grow as a restaurant within itself.

Its Our kind of project I guess!

We will have exciting wines to either drink in house or take home, also will have some exciting food as well. The menus will be small(at least at first), but will change regularly.

There won't be an ethnic background in the food, purely because We don't want to be limited in what we do.

We will be doing our best to source the best ingredients we can find, and hopefully mostly from the Uk.

We have been visiting farmers, butchers, fish suppliers for the last two or so months.

We are very excited and can't wait to serve and feed you all.

Thanks everybody

Kind regards

Hazle and Alex

    • A huge thank you to Julian Richards for fitting our custom wardrobes in two of our bedrooms, we are so happy with the results, they really feel a 'part of the room', super integrated with the space. Julian was a joy to work with, extremely helpful talking through the various options to help make decisions around the look and feel of the wardrobes vs the storage space, and approaches the build in a very methodically and logical manner, ensuring all our needs are taken into account to deliver a space that works for us and our lives. An excellent carpenter and a pleasure to have in the house. I highly recommend working with Julian!
    • Yes - and this is a good thing because meeting housing targets is a good thing. If Labour or any other party had managed to do it consistently over the last decade perhaps we wouldn't be in a housing crisis. I'm not sure if "don't build more housing because it's only rich foreigners that will end up living there" is official Lib Dem policy or not.
    • Does anyone know of anywhere local where I can hire a large shredder? The new Library of Things in the Leisure Centre doesn't presently have one, apparently because they are in the process of getting new improved  ones. I would have preferred to use them, but I  need to dispose of a very large amount of stuff,  and I don't want to wait indefinitely. There's too much of it to dispose of by other methods, like soaking in the bath, and anyway I want to recycle it once it's shredded.
    • Southwark owns it. It's leased to some guy from Orpington or something. They have tried to run a bar, restaurant, Uber Eats dark kitchen, nightclub for one off events...but never quite committing to one of them or being very successful. Some of the nightclub nights are a shambles: booze bottles all over the pavements, screaming and yelling, dickheads racing cars. I didn't know they were doing swingers nights - obviously I don't move in the right circles to get an invitation... 😞 It's odd that no-one has been able to make a real go of it in recent years. It should be a great space - a country manor feel in the centre of London overlooking a park? But the forecourt is a bit shabby. BTW much as I dislike Musk - I'm not sure I can blame the Belair House lot (which is a tiny business) much for taking money to let them do a launch event. And calling Belair House "sacred" seems a bit of a stretch 🤷
