tbh I cant even remember how it started. I think maybe someone overheard someone pronouncing it as such and posted it here. You can't have failed to notice people repeating it here ad nauseum for the last few months?
A bit, but WHY? Is it some kind of pronunciation guide cos surely no-one pronounces it that way?
 
Not sure but here's my reviews:
Honest burger - yum yum yummy
El Panson - yum yum yummy
That thai place - yum yum yum
Grace and French - yum yum yum
The ice cream place - yum yum yu
Bellatonis - yum yum yu
Elephant - yum yum
Brick Box - yum yum
Agile Rabbit -yum yu
What's the Agile Rabbit?
 
re Sitifis: please "like" if you are on facebook.... (I see some people have already!). I'll be gutted if he closes.

You can also recommend on facebook - which if lots of people do might drum up some business. I'd hate for it to close too, a friendlier welcome in Brixton can't be found. And the cakes. Oh the cakes.
 
It's taking the piss out of the gentrification surely that's obvious.

Not saying you have to pronounce it like that :D
Hmm, it doesn't make any sense at all. Ascribing an imaginary pronunciation to something that's poncy enough already
 
Anyone interested in Social Cleansing should watch the programme after Newsnight - it's about Deptford High Street and what happened after WW2 when the LCC planners decided to decant the residents to Harlow, Bury St Edmunds etc and demolish good quality terraced houses - even if spotlessly kept. The owners suffered compulsory purchase at low rates - then demolition. The new flats built then now in turn need to be demolished.
It was shown last Wednesday and is a real shocker - but beautifully crafted as a documentary I thought.
Take note - look at Guinness Trust! (Southwyck House next?) - pass it on!

Oh, repeat of episode I missed last night. Thanks for reminder

All the beautiful old terraces where my parents grew up in Bermondsey suffered the same story.
 
I liked Elephant but couldn't really see the appeal of Brick Box: the service was friendly and everyone seems to be nice peopel but the food was really average.

Much as I wanted to like the pizza at Agile Rabbit, the veggie pizzas were rather greasy both times we've been - Eme's was literally dripping with grease.

That'll be the cheese.
 
There's supposed to be a new jazz club next to Brazas on Tulse Hill - called Club 43. Only open a few weeks or so. Anyone been? I'm intrigued...

The downside of having a baby is the deleterious effect on ones range of adjectives.
