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

[Mrs Magpie]

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

Oh, Ergen's!

That map is bollocks,it's inside Granville directly opposite the short exit to Coldharbour lane.Foods awful local 'ner do wells hang out there,stay away from my cafe with your fixies and ting.

 

[Onket]

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.)

I did say '(if in Brixton)' tbf.

Well I did say "apparently"

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Ergen's (aka Express, apparently) isn't in Granville

 

[Kanda]

No.

15-17 Market row.I've been eating there for years,although I must say whether it's called the "Express cafe" I've no idea.Used to have sexually ambiguous waiter who was great,departed a while ago to Northhampton,now has eastern European woman who is getting into the swing of things.Cook knows my order (always the same and a bit eccentric) by heart.

What's eccentric about your order then?

 

[Corax]

Read the thread, you fucking cretin.

Wow. You're a bit of a cunt really aren't you? Well done.

That's Onket being polite

Cheese Omelette,chips,fried fresh Toms,three slices of crusty bread and butter (chip butties) and two mugs of tea.

3 slices of crusty bread is definitely odd

 

[peterkro]

I don't live in Brixton full-time often it's a couple of months since I was in last,they still know straight away.

Onket being a grumpy killjoy I'm used to. Onket being needlessly unpleasant isn't his usual form though.

 

[Orang Utan]

You shouldn't eat chips with lasagne

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Don't you start, OU

 

[Orang Utan]

And salad should be served separately

madness

look at my picture earlier in the thread. chips and lasagne based goodness.

 

[Orang Utan]

It looks totally wrong. It IS totally wrong!

 

[Dan U]

It looks totally wrong. It IS totally wrong!

but it is also SO right!

 

[Orang Utan]

Nah! Chips are only appropriate with a very few meals. Pasta ain't one of them. Double carb is like double denim.
Totally wrong!

Would you never eat a packet of crisps with a sandwich?

 

[Orang Utan]

No

 

[kittyP]

No

Well you are now clearly the unusual one you have to admit?

Crisps and sandwiches always come together, in meal deals in shops, in packed lunches, in picnics etc

 

[RaverDrew]

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.

Jesus wept Onket, if I was looking for a Lasagne & chips that would be the first place I'd check in Brixton. Every sane person must have assumed you'd tried there already

there is a whole thread on crisps INSIDE sandwiches

nom

I don't do meal deals. Those types of sandwich are pretty much inedible. I'm not a fan of crisps usually tbh.
