Viet Rest - (Near Lewisham, South East)

Oliver Yung Ever so often, one craves that hearty, honest meal and for me, that’s Chaconia, a Trinidadian restaurant at the heart of Deptford. The simple and clean store front veils the rich and exciting flavours that belie. I ordered the chicken curry and rice and was persuasively nudged by a fellow diner to try the goat curry instead; fortunately, the most generous proprietress indulged my gustatory fancies and offered me a small side of that. It was a plate of absolute joy - both curries had distinct flavours and the meats were perfectly stewed, retaining their structure while being succulent to the bite. The rice was well flavoured and was the perfect accompaniment to those rich curries. At £5, this was an absolute steal. I’ll be back.

E Trust these guys. Any time of day or night they have TOP quality food, made with peace and love . ❤️ look no further, I feel so lucky to have these guys as our neighbours ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jess X Goh It was recommended to me by a local who Im house-sitting in Deptford and fell in love with this place and visited 4 times in 1 week so far! Absolutely loved the vegan dishes as Im vegan and heres what I tried so far...morning glory, stir fried beans in chilli and garlic, vegan pho, green papaya tofu salad, mango sago taro coconut milk drink, tropical juice drink and my all time favourite Bánh Cuốn Nhân Chay which is steamed fermented rice rolls with mushrooms. Servings are generous and meals are super tasty and fresh. Ann has been an amazing waitress, lovely personality, friendly, hard working and efficient. The staff are helpful and accommodating and the ambience is lively, busy and colourful. Will definitely come back again as I need to try their vegan spring rolls, rice paper rolls and salad bowls however I might just be tempted to stick to the stir fry beans and fermented rice rolls.

REG Badger Badger seemed like a very nice boardgame cafe, and somewhere Id like to come to again to fully experience. I arrived at around 9pm, the place closes at 11, and boardgames are charged at £8.50 for 3 hours of play. Opting against paying for 3 hours and only using 2, I chose instead to pay cards (free) and drink a couple of pints (not free but understandable). The Guinnesses I had were nice enough, service was friendly and everyone around us seemed to be happy to be playing boardgames in a nice environment on a Tuesday night. They appeared to have a good range here. They also sold boardgames and a range of other similar products in the boardgame area. Food looked quite good here but I didnt have any. The toilets were satisfactory.
