Paulo'z Way - Portuguese Bakery on New Park Road/Brixton Hill

A few days off work and you're letting typos slip in and standards drop. If you only had a Mac I could give you shedloads of things to type in. Then again I;d have to employ someone else to spellcheck;)


Those are deliberate spelling mistakes for the benefit of Onkey. If there's one thing I excelled in at school, it was spelling. Unfortunately, there's no such thing as an A Level in spelling :oops::D

I can't afford a Mac. :mad:

Himself's brother just told him to buy me a new computer for Christmas. It is an idea, but there's no way I'd get him to fork out for a Mac.

A new techie question for the computer forum I think ;)

They aren't that expensive.

You could always go to that market north of Blackpool and buy one - a proper Fleetwood Mac.

Literally...
 
No, you didn't say that. :rolleyes:



See?


Well that's what would have happened. I would have been about to type something, got interrupted and lost trail of thought or changed what I was saying having already typed some

Just shut it will ya :p

Miserable git
 
Admit your mistake and we can put this sorry business behind us and leave it alone until you make another silly error we can blow up out of all proportion. ;)
 
Note on the door says hoping to reopen tomorrow. Plenty of activity going on inside to be seen through the shutters.

Obviously more work needed than anticipated. They were meant to open today. Must be those pesky bar stools giving them problems. :D
 
Had breakfast at Paulo'z today. b/f had the full English breakfast. Couldn't eat it all. Very good deal for £4.50.
 
Just been in Paulo'z for the first time in a couple of weeks. It's all changed. The bar's gone and has been replaced by more tables.
 
Yes. It has changed more into a restaurant.
I think d management has also changed.

I went with the intention of ordering lunch, but menu wasn't very interesting. I also found it a little bit to expensive for what they offer for lunch and tapas (legumes cozidos/boiled vegetables = carrot, potato, cabbage with olive oil £6; pasta tricolore with tuna £6; this is student food...I won't pay for boiled veg or boiled pasta with 1/2 can of tuna). Maybe I'm used to O Cantinho do Portugal, in Stockwell, which is much better priced...

I end up ordering a coffee/capuchino and a custard cake...The custard cake was frozen. The capuchino was more like a latte with tones of powdered chocolate.

I won't go back.
 
It's not even called Paulo'z Way anymore...

I'll stick to The Gallery/Lisboa and the attached cafe :)
 
Los Navigadores I think (I assume some sort of reference to the big model ship in the window).

My girlfriend and I go there for a drink pretty frequently; reasonably priced drinks and we didn't leave until gone 1.00am on our last visit. Plus you often get some singing from the Portuguese patrons.

The food at the Gallery is much better though.
 
What happened to Paulo? His big bridge model in the window is still there, the signage seems to have been done by the same person. I smell uma ratazana... VAT problemo?

He's leased it out. As they probably hang around with the same people, it's possible they're using the same people for the signage etc. His fish tank is in the shop up the road though. Maybe he didn't hae enough space for the bridge.
 
He seems to be running the shop further down (the one with the fish tank in) he's lost lots of weight - I didn't recognise him at first!
