Try down Camberwell Church Street. There's some good Chinese to be had.

If you are thinking of silk road it looked like it had gone last time I was going past, but I've just checked and it reopened this week. https://www.timeout.com/london/news/cult-south-london-restaurant-silk-road-has-finally-reopened-022224

Their menu (on Just Eat, they dint even seem tk have their own website) looks disappointingly similar to every other generic "Chinese" restaurant. 

Given how long it's taken them to open it seems a shame that the offer looks quite so bland.

I agree. I was surprised when I saw the menu, for the same reason.

I was quite glad to be honest.  My regular is pretty generic, but since it was closed, this was very welcome.  There are plenty offering non generic food on the various apps. Sometimes all you want is tried and tested comfort food!  Personal choice, room for all. 🙂

The menu outside the restaurant looks better than the take away one.

Yes, extremely silly.  And especially when they don’t offer a 10% discount like several Indian restaurants do, according to their websites.   Two Sisters in Nunhead is one. Was highly rated by someone on the Which is the Best Curry Restaurant thread.  Not tried yet, but at least they have the option of card payment.

I agree @Alec1! I also like a Chinese which does the classics, like a good sweet & sour chicken!

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. Planning to try 148 Chinese tonight!

    • 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!
