Had to try it out earlier this month. More BIRs than you can shake a stick at. Had a nice meal at the Bengal Village.

Re: Brick Lane, London
Nice one Alchy. What made you decide on that particular establishment?

Re: Brick Lane, London
It was excellent - see my full review here, Mr Sak
Re: Brick Lane, London
Glad you enjoyed. Seeing as I live about 50 minutes away from Brick Lane I really should go for a curry there.... I did have one from a curry van near Petticoat Lane (nearby) one lunchtime with 2 colleagues and all 3 of us had serious 'toilet' problems over the course of the next 48 hours
Re: Brick Lane, London
This i can help with well maybe
Petticoat Lane is in London E1 postcode, be dammed if i know where Petticoat lane is, im 50 SW london man and been there billions of times in the 70s and 80s as for Petticoat? No ideas - its Middlesex Lane of Street (Street correctly) the sales back in 1600s what made London have the name Petticoat Lane, not convinced there ever was such a road
The place was political, north of Aldgate Station or correctly Aldgate EAST, and least to Shoreditch to the left and Bethnal Green to the right a little further, brick lane is such a road and is not linked to Petticoat
Brick Lane is over to the North West of the end of Petticoat (Middlesex St) and few minutes walk away
the reason Petticoat Lane does not exist is in fact the name was changed I recall to Middlesex Street. but the old London name stuck, ah trust us London guys ah? This was around 100 years ago, no Brick Lane notice !
Brick Lane was rubbish up until 1970 and then on, its no place nowadays thou. Petticoat got the German treatment in WW2 and this fizzed out most and crime took over, on later in the 70s Brick lane a little over kicked into play with men, women and children from The West Indies and Asia settling, many bring news things and ideas and many following old England and mixing it up a little
Thus Brick Lane now, and why Petticoat failed
I preferred petticoat if honest was my times, I used to park free outside the Police Station and have a wicked time, market places. I used to check my car for bombs before getting back in to my car often the Police were about so they saw what I was doing and join in- well London been thats kinda place all my life for many a reasons
Not been there for 20+ 25+ years now, how its changed
One day ill tell about my 80s currys in TA in south London
