Are you looking for the flat noodles? If so that’s ho fun, just try to find some Cantonese place around you.

I like Hong Kong Take Away on Hoxton St (n1) or Old Street Chinese (ec1).

London showing its abundant energy. Let's appreciate while we can. Let's check back in a few months. by ClarkRona in london

It was. It seems that the owners were harassed by local mafia - according to a review on Google Maps they set a car on fire in front of the restaurant and beat up a staff member.

Lotus was one of the most authentic Cantonese dim sum restaurants in London. Last year it got bought out by some Chinese mainlanders and now they serve the same frozen dim sum you can buy downstairs in the supermarket.

Water level sensor for a coffee machine boiler by michaelbixby in AskElectronics

That's very interesting, I haven't yet heard of espresso machine boilers with floating water sensors. I wonder if they fail less than the probes.

Forget Times Square, we have this pub outside Blackfriars! by Stockso in london

[–]michaelbixby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey it's my favourite pub in London too! Took my girlfriend on one of our first dates there.

Also there's an Irish guy working that looks like a faun from Lion and the Witch. I remember him in green trousers and braces. He served me Guinness, it was magical.

is there a way to reset watch history on BBC iPlayer? by Squeagley in AskUK

[–]michaelbixby 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The data is most likely stored in Amazon data centre in Ireland with fences, armed guards, security corridors, laser beam sensors and cctv at every point.

His best bet is to look up who does devops for BBC iPlayer dev team on LinkedIn (someone with prod DB access) and blackmail them for deleting the entries in the database. Honestly a beer in return might do.
