Eats Dulwich Posted Saturday at 12:32 Share Posted Saturday at 12:32 (edited) Hi, I hope this is of interest, I've launched a new substack reviewing restaurants in SE22. In case you don't know, a substack is like a blog. At the moment the page is free to subscribers and hopefully as it grows there will be exclusive offers and meal deals. It is completely independent, all meals are paid for and establishments visited anonymously. Please read the reviews and if you enjoy them or find them useful please subscribe and share.

Though everyone is welcome to pay if they want!

jazzer Posted Saturday at 16:08 Share Posted Saturday at 16:08 (edited) Jenijenjen -its nothing to do with being grumpy, its expecting people to use the language the way it is intended to be used and not use words incorrectly. calling someone grumpy on a local forum, you may find amusing, I find it demonstrates your arrogance and rudeness.

Eats Dulwich Posted Sunday at 12:48 Author Share Posted Sunday at 12:48 Hi everyone who has subscribed to Eats Dulwich. The response has been overwhelming. However, I've realised I made a rookie error when I set up the new page. I didn't have the paid subscriber button turned on! While the reviews are free to read, a few paid subscribers will help me to make the page better - write more, travel a bit beyond SE22 and also set up exclusive offers and meal deals. Subscriptions start at only £5 a month and you can cancel at any time. If you can upgrade to paid that would be great. But no obligation of course. Any support is really appreciated.

malumbu Posted Sunday at 14:49 Share Posted Sunday at 14:49 Ah, glad you have admitted that this is a business, first thing that came to mind. I wont be subscribing. Happy to provide free advice on where to eat! Should this not be in the classified section? 1 2 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/356846-new-local-restaurant-reviews-website/#findComment-1695362 Share on other sites More sharing options...

malumbu Posted Sunday at 17:44 Share Posted Sunday at 17:44 Admin can decide. But if a business is touting their products then the person running this may wish to get a cut. I find it strange that a community web site where issues like dog poo and local surgeries should be subject to guerilla/ambush marketing. You don't need to share this view. 2 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/356846-new-local-restaurant-reviews-website/#findComment-1695386 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbg212 Posted Sunday at 21:00 Share Posted Sunday at 21:00 Good on you for doing something rather than some who would prefer to complain about what others are doing. Enjoyed the read and look forward to seeing more of the meals from the area. There's are some great substack newsletters out there for local news and exploration. Love to see it. 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/356846-new-local-restaurant-reviews-website/#findComment-1695405 Share on other sites More sharing options...
