Any question answered...

You could do a lot worse that swinging wide (south) of Brick lane and heading to Tayabs on Fieldgate st. But give them a bell. It's bust there. Frikkin lovely, bustling Pakistani grill off Whitechapel at bottom end of Brick lane.

Might give this a go. Fed up with bad food, pissed up people sitting on tiny tables in cramped restaurants and inexplicable £50 bills on Brick Lane.

hummmm.... I would give tayabs a miss. The foods great and so is the price, but it's always a mission to get seated regardless of booking. Maybe Mon-Wed it might be ok. Maybe it's changed, I haven't been there for 2years now.

Loads of my friends say the place just round the corner is as good, and well priced, but without the insane waits for tables.

Edit: just saw tommmmmmm's post. Yep that place.
