I'd definitely love to see a good deli. I'm amazed by the lack of one around here. Even in Crouch End there doesn't seem to be a really decent deli. There's spiazzo but MY WORD those guys are miserable.
I'm trying to picture what a "sceptic tank" might look like.
"Right, sceptic tank - are you ready? FIRE!"
"Well I doubt very much whether we'll hit anything and i'm probably out of bullets soon anyway and really i'm not sure this war is worth it at …
Hi @ashman - niche request I realise but where they're in season, what would be the chance of you getting courgette flowers in as well as the courgettes themselves? They're delicious!
Hi Dairy! Any plan to run the beer tasting menu again? I missed out last time due to a sceptical missus. Have campaigned hard for her to give beer a chance since!
@therattle - no worries, i'm sure they're normally fine. The dry cleaner next to Sainsbury on SGR does an absolutely amazing job on them for the same price. Lovely blokes in there too.
Grrr - used the cleaner opposite Image to get shirts ironed and, not only do they appear to have been ironed by a toddler, but one of them now has a great big brown stain on the arm. Avoid.
@therattle, thanks for that. Dropped mine in to Image yesterday (before seeing your message) for cleaning and ironing and it'll come to £16! Bit steep for a weekly need! £1 a shirt is much more like it.
Does anyone know if Image do shirt service (cleaning + ironing)? Start a new job on Monday and would like a brief period of looking close to smart!
Cheers!
Was in Highgate tonight and very quiet. Quite weirdly so. High Tea was boarded up and a couple of restaurants had shut but OK other than that. Hoping SG is fairing well.
Thanks both!
I'm a big fan of both a slightly pretentious gastro pub and a lassic sticky floored boozer, so it sounds like stroud green is the place for me!!
@Ian - i'm the model neighbour - scouts honour.
Itching to get moved now. Got a few weeks left here beforehand and counting down the days a bit.
First question. Good pubs? I hear a lot about The Old Dairy but any other tips?
Hi all
I'm moving to Regina Road at the end of August and am really please something like this forum exists. I've lived in Maida Vale for the last year or so and, although I love the area, it's very "offish" and not very community focussed. I'm l…
