Good luck in your quest finding sufficiently authentic Viet Namese cuisine in Sir Ddynbich for less than the cost of a Gregg's meal deal.

Ha, it's interesting that you think I'm on a quest - sounds fun to be honest.

The new viet place also does solid bahn mi's to takeaway, made fresh to order but made quickly. £12 for their special bahn mi (only slightly cheaper for others) so pricey but nice to have a different kind of lunch/sandwich offering locally.

I tried Viet Flavour and was disappointed.  Their summer rolls especially were not at all good, stodgy and flavourless.  Pho-OK.  I'm hoping it will get better

Willow is now being emptied of its remaining contents. Does anybody know what is going to replace it?

We ate at Viet Flavours last night - the quality is excellent - home made noodles, generous portions, really fresh, high quality chicken - totally delicious.  We had the tasting menu which was actually very good value for money - lots to eat and we left stuffed. Run by the lovely Anne and her family, we will certainly be back to support this great new option to the high street.

Went to Viet Flavours last night finally. For me it is a bit cramped and noisy. Initially, they tried to sit us on the same table as a group of four, which I was extremely uncomfortable with and surprised given that I had booked. Thankfully a couple left as we arrived and gave us their table. The food was quite good, although, my 'vegetable' curry was actually tofu with just one bit of veg. Staff were friendly, but rushing around. Had to ask for water refills and only got half a glass each time. Good wine selection and the house wine, which is a Chardonnay, is very good. For me, the pricing is a little too much for what feels like a very quick meal in a busy setting.

Anyone know what's happening to good neighbour ?

The whole chain seems to have closed, which is a shame as it was always good.

I just googled it. I didn't even know it existed!

They're open. It's Love Dulwich cafe. Looks good - bistro fare (omelettes, sandwiches, lasagne). Nice decor and alcoholic drinks - so presumably morning, daytime and evening service. Haven't been in yet.

PopBox art for kids is/has opened up there. Plenty of my kids classmates have been going to PopBox for ages and they've got a new local home now too which is fantastic!

Just walked past this place opposite Dulwich Library today - I'd missed it opening up. Looks like a nice little space, they're doing art club stuff for kids in the holidays.
