The Missing Issue.

Gossip & & Grumbles
Food and Drink Special.

Retiring Tommy tinker the light bulb millionairre, has clinched the deal on selling Tinkers hardware. I can exclusively reveal that the new owner is none other than the celebrity chef Jamie Oliver. Jamie told me " The bottom is falling out of the celebrity chef game, so this was an opportunnity Jules and I could not let slip, cheffing and selling hardware are really, really very similar, really..." Pucker.



Viva Espania!

Buenos diaz el tapas cntina. The Sangria flowed, paella voluvents were consumed. The gypsy Kings flew over especially and played into the early hours.


The guests? a who's Who of the local shopkeeping glitterati, mingled gaily at the best launch a Tapas restaurant at the Dials has ever had. guest of honour were Linda Barker and officers from brighton planning and building control, who performed an erotic flamenco dance to the delight of a packed floor, who's grout was hardly dry.
Ole amigos.



Tv bosses are looking for contestants for an up an coming food and drink show to be filmed in West Hill called Repitition Repitition Repitition.

We are the new Preston Street we are. No sooner did the "fry-ups" at the self named Wonder Bar get a great review on a German website it closed it doors forever. Mr "Personality transplant "himself, he of the Tweed hat, the man they named the animal liberation front after Mr Alf has retired to Mile Oak only to be replaced by a Thai Restaurant to be called the Red Snapper. One Thai restaurant every 20 metres is never enough.
If the new owners need some design do's and don'ts they need look no further than TheLlittle Buddha.

Sexy Keith Bryden has re-submitted the plans to build flats above his hardware shop opposite homeless house.
The architect? No other than Tin Drum entrepreneur and Mill row draughtsman, Daid Radtke. Keiths favourite food is rare lamb shank.

The now defunct launderette is still available for a culinary make over since the application for Wine World was turned down. It would make a great bookshop-internet cafe especially as there are only eight places where you can sit and have a latte on the Dials. Odds on favouritegot to be an Real Estate Offic. The joys of hindsight.

Next years inaugral dials International food Fest is probably definately on. Organisers
believed to be a Dials Restaurant "We use loads of cream in all our dishes." are very excited. A person close to the owners told someone close to me " West hill Dials / Little London is represented by every cuisine you can think of (except Bulgarian Syrian and Uzbeki.-PG) We want to celebrate this tasty diversity with a fun family, summer weekend. Dyke road will be closed to traffic from Compton Ave to Addison Rd. Within a few years we expect this festival of fab food fun to rival Notting Hill Carnival and Crufts".

Juliette and her posse, from the co-incidently named Juliette's on trendy Melville Road, headed for the Davys Tapas launch but ended up watching the preceedings from the couch in the Tin Drum window .

Lah de Dah! This world fusion nosh is all very well for us D.I.N.K.Y.S. but what of the afficionados of the all-day gut buster British fry up?The answer my friends isthe Bath Street sandwich bar that became a cafe that became a Turkish meze Bar that has now been invented as Bacon and Egg Wonderland. the prices would have been cheap even in the 70's. Give it a try soon because it could become a salt beef and bagel bar any minute...

This manor is well represented with cutting edge contemporary retail design. Alldays, purveyors of fine foods, is probably more on the edge than anywhere else except perhaps for it's sister shop the Co-op. It will come as no suprise then that they have been nominated for a top council design award. A delirious Alldays spokesperson commented " We are very proud of our store but must thank Dean and Delucia, our Manhattan mentors for the inspiration and ideas."

The orgy of graffiti madness last month made more sense when my Adrian pointed out that the tags were in fact Latin for "Eat at the Seven Dials." Classy.

Pizza Girl will be back in the New Year.
