Yeah I used to live in Peckham until just last year....don't think Ganapati is quite as special as Babur tho'!
'All the way to Penge' lol. It's just a lovely wee stroll away!
And I agree HOP parade is an intergral part of Forest Hill (didn't used to when we first moved - I thought we were in Brockley! - but I'm a bit more enlightend now ).
Don't rate Sodo at all, sad to say, but I love Donde to bits and bobs somehow. The food is consistently good (pig cheeks nommmm) and there's just a really relaxed atmosphere there, and (unlike with Sodo) I like the feeling of knowing where my money's gone and not feeling short-changed.
