I was thinking the same on another thread.


Anyway... none of them a great on Brick Lane, but Aladins is consistently OK.


Tayyabs is good but the queueing is ridiculous. Try Needoo grill round the corner for similar food without queues.

Along with an unexpected interest in finance and claiming Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance as the last book he'd read.


I agree with Jeremy re Tayyabs, it is very good but hardly a relaxing experience, even when the queueing is over and your finally inside. Better to leave a visit to the weekend in my experience.

I worked near Brick Lane 35 years ago ..


There were only 2 Indian Rests. back then and a handful of Indian / Bangladehi cafes.


There was Clifton and another next door whose name I cannot remember but Salmon Rushdie used to go there.


The Clifton back then consisted of long tables and benches.. Bit like a Pie & Mash shop.


12" Chappatti 5p


Steamed Rice 10p


Lamb Bhuna 40p


Chicken on the bone curry 60p


Chillies and onion salad FREE.


How things have changed..

    • Agree that councils were not allowed to plough back housing revenue to create or improve stock. Young people especially, if they are lucky to have a decent job salary wise, find it impossible almost to find rented accommodation which is in a reasonable condition. We have a family member who is sharing a 3 bed ex council flat in Kings Cross area and are paying £2,500 pm between the 4 of them plus all utilities.
    • It wasn’t that long ago that Southwark planted a strip of seed bearing plants specifically for birds. It was parallel to Peckham Rye by the Harris Boys’ school. Naturally, it has disappeared courtesy of Gala. 
    • Silly comment.  Read the attachment.  Or go to i-player and watch Winterwatch: https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/documentaries/winterwatch-jack-baddams-protect-birds-comment/ Our gardens are not natural, many of the birds that use them are dependent on us.  Most of us feed the birds, including myself, do it for our own pleasure rather than in a belief that we are reversing the damage done to nature by humans over recent centuries.
    • Thanks @Sue I had no idea what they delivered. Personally I just dont get why anyone living in London would bother with something like this, We can all pop down the road and buy bread, pastries etc and know what we're getting.. Just seems a bit of a yuppie fad and waste of money. But thats just my opinion!
