  • 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.

  • Apparently Poppie's the new Fish and Chip place next to the Golden Hart Pub opposite Spitalfields, on Hanbury St is good too. Haven't tried it yet but hear good things.

  • Cay Tre on Old St is a brilliant Viet restaurant as are many of the Viet haunts on the bottom of Kingsland rd if you can be arsed to wander up Shoreditch High St. Well well worth it. Definite recommend for Cay Tre. Again, give them a bell.

  • Where can I pick up the spacers for a rear geared hub? Put a new cassette back on and lost one of the spacers for the cassette (plastic one between cogs)

    Alternatively id love to buy one from someone on here.

    Anyone?? Went to lbs and nothing :(

  • why not to make them yourself?

    buy a bit of ABS pipe and just cut a piece, with a sand paper flat on a table you will be able to leave it exactly of the weight you need

    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.

  • Right so I was going to buy the tickets to Berlin for tomorrow that were in the Classifieds as I needed to go anyway for a bit of research. It hasn't worked out as the name change etc would have been too expensive, Easyjet are robbing fuckers.

    Anyway, I was pretty keen to go, had a work schedule lined up and a Union Berlin friendly planned, even though I only thought about buying them today.

    How much does it cost just to rock up at the airport and fly to Berlin? We're talking lowest end here, (though I won't fly Ryanair out of principle)? Does it ever get cheaper on the day? Is it worth trekking to Gatwick for?

    All of WrongCog's suggestions I can also vouch for. As well as Cay Tre, Mien Tay and Song Que are great Vietnamese.

    Tayyab's is the absolute nuts, but if it's too full, Needoo Grill just around the corner is run by an ex-Tayyabs manager and is supposed to be almost exactly the same in terms of menu and quality.

    What speed cassette is it for? or do you have the spacer width.
    I may have some spacers made from delrin.

    Noted. Nice one.

  • Tayyabs can get proper busy, so if you want to avoid the old elbow to elbow thing it's not a good call. It's a shit load better than anywhere on Brick Lane though.

    They will probably charge you to stand in the queue

    Just for a 9 speed shimano hub.

  • The Shimano diagrams conveniently include the thickness, so it would be easy to manufacture the part to spec. For 9-speed Shimano, the separate spacers ar 2.56mm thick. I reckon a 2.5mm BB spacer would be close enough, and there should be plenty of those floating around in parts bins.

    Be interested to know the answer if you do go...

  • I couldn't be arsed with it in the end, Gatwick's too far to go on a whim really.

    I was psyched up for it so I bought tickets for tomorrow morning, I'll be getting the 4.35am from London Bridge. Ouch. I will do my best to ask at the check-in desk how much it would cost though, out of interest, if I can form sentences.

    On the plus side, I'll be in Berlin by 9.35am, get a couple of Club Mates down me and be getting on with my work by midday. I'm too tired to see that that really isn't too exciting a prospect.

    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.

  • Last time I was in the area we went to the Turkish place over the road- on the corner before Tayyabs as you walk up from the Bell Foundry.

    Really nice, very cheap.

  • Anyone know of a pub:

    • by holborn
    • that'll be open for the next hour
    • won't be too hideously rammed (to meet and talk to a friend)

    Cheers.
