Lunch in Kennington
Yesterday I was in south London, having lunch at the cutely named Dippy Egg. I think it's the first greasy spoon I've been into since I moved here. Anyone not familiar with the term can probably guess what it means, plenty of fuel and none too healthy. Stroopwafel Fiend's lunch was a good example: a sausage and bacon sandwich. My salad tried to run away but couldn't move on account of being weighed down by the large amount of dressing.

SF and me then went to the supermarket to get tea and raspberries for pudding (as you do). On the way, on a non-descript bit of street, I spotted these houses through some railings:

6 painted houses
Kennington Lane

Nice and a little Mediterranean. Even the weather seems to agree.

Hmm. The cutesy name and the fact that there *are* things like salad on the menu make me suspicious of this place's greasy spoon bona fides.

I should probably confess that what my salad was trying to hide behind was undercooked chips and a soggy omelette. But you're probably right. :-) Not that I intend to go any further with regard to greasy spoon authenticity.
