Ready cooked Unagi in London?
Thanks will check the one in Brewer St soon. Ended up going to Centre Point Food Store and got it for 6.99, a bit steep but I have a craving to feed.

How long will my stock last?
Really? Thanks for the tip!
If I forget to re-boil, or don't reboil at all from the moment I finish it, how long have I got?
Thanks again!
How long will my stock last?
Hello people,
I made rabbit stew and didn't have time to make my own stock for it, but I deceded to make rabbit stock today from the heart, liver kidney and the ribcage I didn't use in the stew yesterday. So, I've fired up the stock, but my question is how long will it last in the fridge after I make it today.
Also any stock making tips are welcome!
Thanks
Merguez in London
Hi guys. Yes, the dude in the van near Brixton Station is good, I actually had merguez craving today and ran there only to find it closed and to realise, that yes today is sunday.
I know a place in Kentish Town called Phonecia that has them but it's a bit of a trek.

Moroccan Stall Brixton
Just found this little Moroccan stall/van in brixton next to the Hive, it does tagines, soups and sandwiches.
I had the Mergez sandwch for 3quid, filled me right, nice and spicey.
Anyone else come across this?
Brixton/South London recs
Also, tried out Olley's Fish and Chips near brockwell which was nice, for 6.50 you get fish, chips and mushy peas.

i'm new here, so don't know if this has been covered before, but where can one obtain a good Reuben in London. Bodean's does an awful excuse for one.
Fresh Chicken - Brixton, London
Hi
Thanks for the info. I like Moens stuff, but you're right they are pricey. I don't drive is the place in West Dulwich easy to get to from Brixton on Bus? Also, are their prices lower than Moens?
Thanks for the help
Fresh Chicken - Brixton, London
Hi
I'm usually pretty turned off by some of the meat in the Market, although I get my fish from Mash and Sons under the rail arches, does anyone know where I can get a good organic free range chicken in Brixton?
All help appreciated.
London - lobster roll
Hi
It's far from perfect, but Joe Allen in Covent Garden does as Lobster Roll, however their menu seems to rotate and sometimes it's a Crayfish Roll and is served with 'shoestring' potatoes.
It was a bit too small, and I wasn't too impressed. Food quality at Joe Allen varies, so, give it a go and let us know what your verdict is on it, maybe you'll have a better experience than I did with their roll.
