Where can I get a good lasagne & chips in Brixton this dinnertime?

[Dan U]

I know it's not Brixton but I ate this at the Horniman Museum Cafe at lunchtime today and thought of you Onket...

It was very nice, if a bit dear at 6.50.

My mate got a bigger bit of lasagne than me so they went a bit mad on the chips i think

Lasagna and chips so should not go together but boy do they.
I want that lunch Dan U

Absolutely.

They do a butternut squash lasagne too if you are that way inclined

Quite a nice cafe as it goes on a sunny day.

Of course they should! Unless the lasagne actually fills the plate, what are you going to have to fill you up? Bread?

Good work Mr U. Don't think 6.50 is too bad really, it is a museum after all.

I've got an annual pass to get in to the aquarium there. Have taken my daughter a few times- she loves it.

Chips?
Salad?
Crusty bread?

All acceptable sides to a lasagne. How about new potatoes, I enjoyed those with a lasagne once.

 

[Onket]

I do like a decent new potato, has to be said.

We agree on something

 

[Onket]

Pretty sure we've agreed on many things.

So there.

By the way, what's that poncy looking stuff in the top left of the pic?

Looks quite palatable.

Looks like pesto on mozzarella to me.

Every time I go past a cafe that has lasagne and chips on the board outside, I think of this thread, now.

The staff there are fantastically friendly and helpful too.

i felt a bit of knobber explaining to my friends who don't use urban or forums that i was taking a picture of my lunch to post on the internet!

It would be more helpful if you posted where you saw lasagne and chips on the board outside (if in Brixton).

Also- I see Express Cafe in Brixton Market does lasagne & chips. How is it that nobody knew this when I posted this thread? It's taken me almost a year and I have found Semas and Express myself now.

You lot are bloody useless.

 

[Corax]

Pasta and potatoes? WTF is wrong with you people?

Read the thread, you fucking cretin.

I'm crap at noticing new signs above premises. What were they called before?

They look like they've been there a fairly long time. Not one of the new poncey places.

Apologies, btw, to Cliffite, who provided this excellent piece of information, but sadly on the wrong thread-

This is a bit late but Express cafe in the market is the best stop for cheap, big Lasagne (with salad & chips). Also for big baked potatoes. crap tea though...

Mein Gott. I would have known about the place TEN MONTHS ago. I blame that Eastender.

Am sure they've been there for years...

 

[Badgers]

I have found Semas and Express

Which is better? Taking quality, quantity, price, seat comfort and travelling distance into account of course.

 

[5t3IIa]

I'm hungry.

 

[Onket]

I've not been inside Express yet.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Where in the market is Express?

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Here apparently

If you come in the entrance by Rosie's, I think it's straight ahead.

Given that I don't live in Brixton any more, lasagne and chips reviews from my area would seem to be potentially derailing, though I did have lasagne chips and beans at the Café Rest on Goldhawk Road a couple of weeks ago. (Fairly average lasagne but a good size and heavy on the meat rather than on the pasta; large quantities of decent chips. More of a filling-up than a gourmet experience.)
