I say chain, they only have 8 outlets around the city. But, they're in some pretty decent parts of London. Looks like ED has been overlooked in favour of our wayward (but much more interesting) younger brother. Oops.

Blenheim Grove is the location.


How many out of 10 do I get for this one Jeremy? ;-)

You have said that before. You need to get it soon. With your knife and fork.

Me too. But it's easy .. They are cheap to make. requires very little equipment and highly profitable..


They are probably here to stay.. well definitely here to stay.. probably a burger tax may be imposed as

it seems to be the government way forward with resolving any obesity problem. Cos I'm the Tax Man..

Also, the likes of McDonald's and Burger King are suffering at the rise of the 'hipster burger', it's a business model which clearly works, especially in London. I had been told Byron Burger were also interested in Peckham (and I genuinely enjoyed my meal I had at one of their restaurants), but surely one area doesn't need two fancy burger restaurants? Or does it?

Burgers and Kebabs are very different..


People eat Burgers any time of the day.. and most kebabs are eaten late at night. (generally speaking)


Pubs do burgers in the evening... but not kebabs.. Kebabs require specialist equipment.


I don't eat many kebabs these days..


Years ago it was a Fish'n'Chip supper after the Pictures.. often walking along the street..


Arrh .. the smell of HOT chips and Vinegar..

Yes burgers are round, or pillar shaped with a dome top


Kebabs are not round, or pillar shaped with a dome top


I think maybe alcohol plays a part in the consumption of the latter


That or plain stupidity possibily or sheer laziness, given how cheap & easy it is to make your own at home when shitfaced on a Fri/Sat nite

Absolutely, the business model that article refers to covers the whole of the UK where, granted, McDonald's is doing very well for itself. But here in London the 'hipster burger' phenomenon has taken huge chunks out of the cheap casual dining burger joints such as the one you quote from the guardian article. Have a read of this

      Shower enclosure installation

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags.

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      By yaymukund · Posted

      Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
