Dining in the Bow district

[Flo]

I'm moving to london for a year, any good advice for stuff to do in the bow area? I need recommendations for restaurants and shops and pubs...

I'm not sure 'dining' is really what the majority of people who live in Bow do in the evening.

I might be being a little unfair here, but Bow is pretty rough. Dining and shopping aren't really on the menu.

If you like curry, there are some amazing restaurants a little further in, but still in East London: the Lahore Kebab House, and Tayyabs being two of them.

Like I said, I might be being really unfair here, but if you're in London for a year, there are a dozen other neighbourhoods that you'd probably want to spend time in before Bow. It's a bit of a khazi.

That's cool, i'll be living in Bow, that was the reason why i asked, but i knew i would probably not spend most of my time there.
