Students identify metaphors and similes in poetry, and use descriptive language when writing a poem contrasting the inside and outside of a piece of fruit.
Fourth graders write a character analysis of someone they know describing them through similes, metaphors, and hyperboles. They may include themselves and how their person relates to him or her.
Aesop's Fables offer young learners an opportunity to study figurative language. After reviewing theme, simile, alliteration, and metaphor, model for your pupils how to identify examples of these devices in the fable. Class members then work in groups to locate examples in a second story. Finally, individuals work independently on a third fable to demonstrate their understanding. Links to Aesop's Fables and an assessment rubric are included.
Students examine figurative language in writing. Students demonstrate simile, metaphor, and personification in their own writing.
Beyond Paul Bunyan and his blue ox, tall tales can be a great way to teach young writers about word choice and voice in their writing. Using Jerry Spinelli's Maniac Magee and the Six-Trait Writing process, they begin to write their own modern-day tall tales placing emphasis on exaggeration, metaphors, and similes. The lesson plan includes all necessary worksheets and resource links.
Introduce your class to basic figurative language. The presentation covers simile, metaphor, personification, hyperbole, and onomatopoeia. Learners can take notes and complete the practice activities included in the slide show. Particular emphasis is put on metaphor.
Students write poems using similes to describe colors from every sense but sight, requiring them to think about a topic that is primarily visual but describe it without using any visual references.
Writers of all ages develop similes and metaphors to use in their own writing. They create a book of things they are thankful for and share their book with the class. Use this lesson during the month of November to encourage learners of all ages to be thankful!
Third and fourth graders study literary devices and figurative language. They view a PowerPoint presentation (which you must create) to review hyperbole, idiom, simile, and metaphor. They read and discuss the book There's A Frog in My Throat, and sketch a slide of a saying they select. They create a PowerPoint slide and include pictures to illustrate their saying.
After creating a booklet illustrating and explaining a variety of figures of speech, your class will use examples of simile, alliteration, hyperbole, personification, onomatopoeia, and symbolism to develop a slide show in small groups.
This fantastic presentation on similes and metaphors would be ideal for blossoming writers. Learners receive excellent instruction on these terms and are given a meaningful activity to do in their workbooks at the end of the PowerPoint. Very well-done!
Students define the term 'simile,' write their own similes using the words as or like, and work cooperatively to write similes. In addition, students write stories that include similes and illustrate picture books that contain similes.
Fourth graders, after brainstorming a list of things good friends do for each other, apply prereading strategies to the book, "Be A Friend to Trees," and create similes and metaphors utilizing content ideas. They also sketch an illustration of their comparisons.
High schoolers listen to music and identify alliteration, metaphor, onomatopoeia, personification, rhyme and simile. In groups, they study the example lyrics and discuss how the musician or author used each device within their lyrics. Students use pictures, drama and music to create their own presentation demonstrating an assigned poetic device.
Play around with figurative language in an interactive PowerPoint with a Winnie-the-Pooh theme! Review definitions of similes, metaphors, and idioms. Then, learners answer 15 multiple-choice questions where they must decide what type of figurative language is being used. Tip: Pupils can play this game individually! You might also ask your class to create their own PowerPoint using this one as a model.
Young writers learn about similes and read some examples using the topic of volcanoes. They write 10 similes of their own and choose one to illustrate. The graphic design of the sheet is clean, promoting focus and clarity.
Students explore websites that contain poems about autumn, winter, and the seasonal holidays and explore how similes and figurative language can be used in poetry.
In this similes and metaphors worksheet, students write similes for seven given sentences and then change them into metaphors.
In this recognizing similes worksheet, students read the words in the word bank for clues and fill in the blanks with animal names to complete the similes. Students write 12 short answers.
New Review My Ántonia: Figurative Language
The rich, vivid imagery in Willa Cather's novel, My Ántonia, is both engrossing to read and important to understand in the context of the plot. Young learners work in groups to identify key images, similes, and metaphors in Book One, and present what they have discovered to the class. In a narrative writing assignment, kids describe a memory from their childhood using sensory details, and continue reading Book Two for homework.

All ideas needed to address food production challenges
If nothing else, the nations ongoing discussion about food production has revealed the complexity of issues relating to economic, environmental and social sustainability.

If nothing else, the nations ongoing discussion about food production has revealed the complexity of issues relating to economic, environmental and social sustainability.
The purchase includes five IDEAg branded farm shows Minnesota Farmfest, Dakotafest, Amarillo Farm and Ranch Show, Northern Illinois Farm Show and the IDEAg Interconnectivity Conference. The business also publishes Feed & Grain Magazine and Case IHs Farm Forum magazine.
As Congress prepares to write a new farm bill, farmers at American Farm Bureaus annual meeting laid out a plan to preserve the core purpose of the federal legislation while recognizing the nations fiscal situation.
The American Farm Bureau Federation took action to appeal a recent court decision that upheld the Environmental Protection Agencys pollution diet for the 64,000-square-mile Chesapeake Bay watershed.
Health insurance costs are an ongoing and significant expense for farmers and ranchers and must be reduced so that they do not burden farm and ranch businesses with costs they cannot afford, American Farm Bureau Federation President Bob Stallman told members of the Senate Finance Committee.
American Farm Bureau is asking Congress to spread farm bill cuts across key program areas. The organizations proposal represents a balance of multiple commodity and regional interests.
The American Farm Bureau Federation supports legislative efforts by Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) to stop an Environmental Protection Agency proposal to regulate carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.
Numerous provisions of the Senate Agriculture Committee's draft farm bill follow the American Farm Bureau Federation's core principles for "rational, acceptable farm policy," but there is room for adjustments to improve the legislation. American Farm Bureau President Bob Stallman delivered that message to Senate Agriculture Committee leaders in a letter today following a meeting of the organization's board of directors.
Reduced funding forces layoffs, and more are projected
2009 was yet another award-winning year for the Ohio Farm Bureau and its county Farm Bureaus.

My wife has hung necklaces on hangers, hooks and all manner of things, but they've always been in a bundle. We're just getting set up in our new home, and this was a simple project to tackle. But as always, it gave us other ideas…
This one is will hang on the wall in our (her) walk-in closet. It won't be an obstruction because it will hang flush on the wall, and is only a couple inches deep. We did find out after that she gave me the the wrong length of her longes necklace, so that's why this one is "version 1".
We're also thinking about adding something for bracelets near the bottom.
I thought this might be a simple project for Christmas gifts that the women in my life might find useful.
The basic form was inspired by David Mark's Open Display Case project. My next one will include some "embellishments".

Great idea. Looks a little familliar. Check this display cabinet out that I made for my daughter in law last year.
Hers was made for doing jewelry shows ( kinda like tuperware shows) She could fold it up and take along with her to the shows. I made 4 of these that stand back to back and latch togather on a table. All with different layouts for the different lengths(necklaces, bracelets, earrings)
Thought it might give you more ideas for your next one.
Looks great. keep it up.

MrsN- I guess I should have read a little closer – I used 1/4" ply, with the Donjer. The brass hooks are JUST long enough to stick through, so you either have to use 3/8" ply or grind down the tip of the hook from the back.

The Fieldston Guide to American History for Cynical Beginners: Impractical Lessons for Everyday Lifeby Jim Cullen
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Are You a Cynical Beginner?
You may not have a Ph.D. in history, but you already know — or can readily believe — that Columbus didn't exactly "discover" America. Or that the man who wrote the Declaration of Independence was a slaveholder. Or that our leaders may not be entirely committed to the effort to make sure that in fact no child is left behind.
But the truth of individual lives can be more compelling than they initially appear: surprising, informative, and maybe even inspiring. This book explores a few such lives, and the lessons they offer in ways that might actually mean something outside a classroom.
These biographical case studies — which include General George Washington, who was once invited to lead a military coup against the new American government; Ida Wells, who responded to lynchings by publicly mocking the manhood of those who murdered African Americans; and Eugene Debs, who chose to go to jail to protect free speech — explore a series of questions. How does one keep true to one's principles in the face of social pressure? What strategies work best in addressing your opponents? Can public acts atone for private flaws?
In different ways, the profiles in courage here provide answers to these questions — not definitive answers, but real ones. You can weigh them, accept them, reject them, or — who knows? — maybe even apply them. You may not end up any less cynical after leafing through this book. But you will be less of a beginner.

Russell Wilson and the soaring Seattle Seahawks take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 9, in one of the most lopsided match ups of the weekend. The Buccaneers have yet to win a game, while the Seahawks only loss of the season has come at the hands of the Indianapolis Colts.
Tampa Bay enters the game as 16.5-point underdogs, with the over/under being set at 40.5.
Considering how terrible the Buccaneers have been, it is very possible that the Seahawks are able to cover the spread. The over/under will almost certainly be surpassed.
If the Tampa Bay Buccaneers want to win, their only chance will be to get pressure on Russell Wilson. The Seahawks pass protection is awful, so that is the big weakness Tampa Bay will need to attempt to exploit.
Unfortunately, on the opposite side of the ball, Seattle's defense is going to manhandle the Buccaneers offense and rookie Mike Glennon is going to look lost.
This could be one of the ugliest games of the season, which could ultimately be the final straw in the Greg Schiano era.

Fish Tale Wild Salmon Pale Ale - Fish Brewing Company / Fishbowl Brewpub

3.25/5 rDev -1.8%

3.43/5 rDev +3.6%
Bright coppery orange; the color of fresh, juicy apricots. A modest number of tiny particles swirl within, as do a few larger flakes that resemble citrus pulp. The head is golden ivory in color and creamysoft. It falls to a one finger disk the consistency of whipped butter and deposits a good bit of melty lace. So far, so good.
The nose leaves a lot to be desired. I get the impression of sweet, citrusy hops, but they're way too weak. It's difficult to tell if the hop load is insufficient or if something else is smothering the hoppiness. There is a slight off-aroma, but I can't be sure of its origins.
Wild Salmon tastes like it smells, more or less. There's disappointingly little hoppiness, even for a pale ale. With a hop bill consisting of Chinook (primarily), Cascade and Willamette, you'd think this would be a no-brainer. Well evidently it was a 'brainer' and the brewers weren't smart enough to figure out what makes for a good APA (clue: a lot of good hop flavor).
The beer is acceptably malted I guess, but then it wouldn't take much to counter the paltry amount of hops. For some reason, much more bitterness is evident than actual Chinook (et al) flavor. Unsweetened grapefruit and bitter lemon shine the brightest. Bitterness increases throughout and dominates the dry, clean finish. The mouthfeel is medium for the style with a generous amount of carbonation.
The only other Fish Brewing Company beers that I've had have been IPAs. I thought Fish Tale IPA was just okay and I loved Winterfish. Wild Salmon is definitely closer to just okay. I can't recommend it, but I'm glad that my purchase went toward saving a Wild Pacific Salmon or two.

3.63/5 rDev +9.7%
Appearance: Pours a cloudy amber color with a whipped egg white head that sticks and laces reasonably well
Smell: Biscuity malt with subtle undertones of floral hops
Taste: At the outset, there is a nice blend of both the biscuity malt and the floral hops, with the floral qualities increasing by mid-palate; after the swallow, it all fades away too quickly, with neither flavor persisting well into the finish
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation
Drinkability: Although rather boring, this makes for a nice drinkable beer

Bottle courtesy of Piscator 34: Poured a cloudy orangey/beige color ale with a big foamy head. Aroma of sweet malt with a nice floral hoppy touch. Taste is also quite sweet with some nice floral notes and a medium bitter finish. Body is quite full with limited filtration and good carbonation. I really liked how the hops provide a nice floral aspects without bringing too much bitterness to the beer.

Appearance: Pours a rather clear, orangey-copper body sporting a small ring of white bubbles.
Smell: Scent of sweaty grains with notes of herbs and lemon zest.
Taste: Mild maltiness with just a touch of caramel sweetness and a hint of grains. Dash of clean water. Hop flavors of citrus and aged dried herbs but with only a mild bitterness. Finishes crisp with an equally mild bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Not the most thrilling beer I've come across, but I suppose it's decent enough for an organic brew. Let's leave it at that.

12oz bottle. One of the few PACNW breweries available in my neighbourhood.
This beer pours a hazy, medium golden amber hue, with three fingers of puffy, ebullient and eventually creamy off-white head, which leaves a wall of pock-marked lace around the glass as it lazily recedes.
It smells mildly of semi-sweet biscuity caramel malt, peppy orange cream, underripe pineapple, and floral, leafy hops. The taste is more perfunctory grainy and lightly bready caramel malt, similar complex citrus notes from the nose - pineapple, kiwi, mandarin orange - a touch of wet stone, and a soft piney, floral hop bitterness.
The carbonation is moderate, manifesting in a pervasive frothiness, the body medium-light in weight, and generally smooth. It finishes off-dry, with the understated bready caramel malt and increasingly bitter citrus and leafy pine hops carrying on as the band plays us out.
A pretty decent APA, overall, and well-balanced, but maybe just a little too fruity to make me want another one that soon, despite that game finishing bitter flourish. Fish makes some good stuff, and this has the potential to be right up there - I think I need to try this fresh from the brewery - it's in the plans.

It's great when saving the earth and something you really enjoy come together... and Fish Tale's organic pale ale is one of those things! It's hazy orange body rests gently beneath a short-lived head of creamy ivory froth that leaves some nice spots of lace about the glass. The nose is more malty than hoppy, but you can detect some grassy and floral notes in the background. It's delicate, very fine-bubbled carbonation leaves it smooth and even somewhat creamy in the mouth. The subtly sweet and grainy malt is well-infused with a mildly grassy and delicately floral hop flavor; and nicely balanced by a firm bitterness that brings it to a dry conclusion. It's not an aggressive beer by any means, but it's malt and hop combination is quite charming. A drinkable, everyday ale that resfreshes and satisfies.

Acquired via trade from waldowin, so a big "Thank You" goes out to him for the opportunity to try this beer. Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a bright orange color, with a thin white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma isn't very strong, but contains citrus, hops, grain and caramelized malt.
T: The taste is very bready and malty, with some smokiness to it. There's a background of hops & citrus, but neither seemed very pronounced.
M: Crisp, but not very smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, clean & dry finish.
D: I didn't find this beer to be very tasty or easy to drink. Slightly filling and there isn't much kick. This was my first organic beer and although I'm not sure how much that factored into my perception of the beer, I know I didn't really like the beer too much.

A - One finger of white head on top of a slightly hazy, copper colored body. The foam settles quickly and leaves little lace.
S - An aroma of pine hops with a little bit of fleshy grapefruit underneath. Some toasted, sweet malt and perhaps a hint of toffee.
T - Lightly sweet, toasty malt up front with mild pine hops. A little bit of spicy bitterness comes on in the middle with some fruity orange hop flavor. Finishes with light bitterness balancing a light toasted malt bready character.
M - Medium-light body, moderate carbonation, and a dry finish.
D - This beer manages to be both very light and drinkable, while also having a relative strong hop character. There is a good deal of hop aroma and while the flavor starts out relatively strong it fades towards the end. Overall, it is a nice, drinkable beer; nothing to write home about, but it gets the job done just as intended.

My experience with another Fish Tale Organic was rather pleasant, and I had high hopes for this one as well....
Clear, light amber hue, with a an ample, white head, that drifts swiftly down to size. Aroma is on the quiet side, to be polite. Alert, awake, fresh, even zesty, but possessing no particular flavorful sensations, nothing I like to detect in an ale, no matter how pale. As time goes on, the nose grows particularly more bitter, and there's an increasing fruitiness flowering, but only a bit.
Once over the lips and on the tongue, disappointment prevails. Very simple, with a some hop presence, but remarkably mild at that, and very scant malt, if any. That hoppiness rides meekly through the finish and it's appreciated well enough, but it's a far cry from what I want.
Light body, slight texture, feeling more like a faint, inoffensive ESB than a fruity, hoppy pale ale. I'm not going to quibble over stylistic designations any longer, just end on the note that it moved me not.
Thanks to Gromit for the chance to try it, though.

The beer pours a nice golden color with a thick frothy white head that slowly fades to lacing. The aroma is good. It has a wonderful breadlike maltiness that is earthy and slightly dry. There is a nice complimentary hop aroma that balances the nose. The taste is decent. It has a sweet malty flavor with a dry musty aftertaste. There are some bitter hop notes, but they are quite subtle. It has a watery finish. It lacks mouthfeel. It is a low/medium bodied beer with adequate carbonation. This is a decent pale ale. It has an excellent aroma, but the taste is not well balanced and lacks body.

The beer pours a yellow color with a white head. The aroma is heavy on the grain with some grass and orange citrus notes mixed in. The flavor is a mix of grass, wheat and some orange. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

This beer is a brilliantly clear, amber-copper color and is topped by a frothy, one-finger thick, off-white colored head, which dissapears to a wispy ring of a head fairly quickly. The aroma is a mix of light hop and malt notes, quite appropriate actually. I get notes of caramalized malt, a grapefruit-like citrus character, some orange contributions and some sweet & toasty grain notes.
The taste is lightly sweet up front, with a solid malt character consisting of a light toffee note and a bit of dry, toasted grain notes. There is a citrusy hop character here as well, which reminds me of oranges and some grapefruit. There is this really weird phenolic note in the finish, it is quite noticeable and almost seems a bit like burnt plastic. It couples with a light astringent bitterness, which otherwise would be quite appropriate, but here just makes things worse. This is not horrible, just that the finish is quite off-putting. Otherwise it is a nice mix of hop and malt notes, and would be a quaffable Pale Ale.

Appearance: clear orange in color with a 1/2" head that falls apart quickly. Some spotty lacing developed during the session.
Smell: orange citrus and caramel are soft but pleasant.
Taste: nice malt profile, oranges, black plums, and a soft bitterness. This beer leans towards the malt side, but it is not totally unbalanced.
Mouthfeel: lightly crisp to start but ends smooth. Medium bodied beer.
Drinkability: would like a bit more hops in this one, but this can easily be called a session ale. Another example of an organic beer that leaves you wanting a bit more flavor.

Fish Tale Wild Salmon Pale Ale has a mostly clear orange color with a small, white head. Lots of rising bubbles. The aroma is malty and fruity, with hints of tobacco. Dry, grassy flavor becomes sweet and fruity when I swallow. Some grassy hops, but for the most part, the malt dominates. Medium mouthfeel. Anyone who does not appreciate Fish beers should have their beer card taken away fro life.

A 12 oz bottle from Liquid Solutions. It is certified organic, which makes this my first organic beer (I think).
A: The ale is an amber orange color, clear with no sediment. The head was near 1.5 fingers on pour but has reduced to a thin white webbing on the top of the beer.
S: The nose is a very toasted malt aroma with no sign of any hops.
T: The first thing that I thought on sip was drinking peanut juice, assuming such a thing exists. It is dry, very grainy and chewy. I was hoping for some cascade goodness, but the hops never took the time to appear. There is a bitterness but it lacks a coherent definition, coming across as a celery-like flavor.
M: The mouthfeel is muttled, with graininess and an unpleasant hop body. This is not a beer to use as a gateway into the world of organic beer.
D: The ale leaves an awkward aftertaste in the mouth that I don't think I could stomach again.

Pours a very slight hazy clear golden orange color, nice carbonation, little fizzy off-white head, with some minimal sticky lacing hanging around. The nose is more on the malty side, but with some hops in there. The taste is slightly sweet, malty, with some hoppy bitterness thrown in. Medium body, the finish is dry/bitter. Drinkable, not a bad brew, nothing special.

12oz purchased at the Boise Coop for about $1.50... Shared with my brother ... my half in my New Belgium Balloon... while listening to the Boise RIS party mix.. Cowboy Junkies "Common Disaster".
Fairly clear orange copper brew topped by a 1/2" head that left pretty nice lacing for an APA.
Smell is restrained by interesting.. citrus/berry hop aromas melds well with toasted bread malts... clean.. not alot of fruitiness.
Mouthfeel is medium and flavor is more of the same... low toasty malts are dominant... could definately use more hop flavor. What hops are there are herbs and grapefruit with a little cattiness.
Another average/above average pale ale... I want more from these PNW brewers.. It seems lately like only the smaller guys are pushing it.... Don't get me wrong, If I buy a flight of pales, this is almost always one I pick up; but for reviewing purposes... I expect more.

3rd in a row that I've had multiple times, yet never reviewed. Served in straight pint glass. Poured a lovely medium gold color with 3/4 inch of white head that had slightly less than typical retention and lacing, but that color was gorgeous!
The aroma was on the mild side of typical, nice grains, some floral hops, and just a touch of yeast. The flavor profile was the same, except that the hops were a bit tangier, and there a nice citrus note at the back.
The body was OK, smooth and even, but a somewhat lower level of carbonation was a bit weird. Drinkability was very good, these always disappear when you throw a couple sixers into the cooler at a cookout. Overall, a nice, solid, unexciting brew. It's not going to thrill you, but it'll never let you down either. Take a sixer to an outing, and see how it goes.

The beer pours a nebulous golden orange color, the head prodigious in size, frothy in texture, the color a Very light tan and the residual lace a thick sealing sheet. The nose is mostly malt, light hints of the hops, cotton candy sweet as with the start, lots of malt and somewhat sweet. Top is skinny in feel, the finish lightly carbonated, the hops pertinent in their bitterness, the aftertaste droughty, a decent beer, but not a great beer, still drinkable nonetheless.

Place smelled amazing. Came here with a giganto group during infamous study abroad and were served delicious food. I had the Mango Lassi and some lamb dish, but tried bits of others' dishes and everything tasted very good. Super loud inside and some people can get pushy, but worth it for the atmosphere and food.
Great atmosphere. Great food. And it's BYOB!
Head there on Wednesday for Shami Kebab Day!
The curried lentils are outstanding and the lambchops are amazing as well. Don't neglect the Chicken Tikki and the Lassi popicles for Dessert!
Yelp! thinks I should add my review to the long list Tayyabs has already generated ... so here goes.
I actually can't believe how many years it has taken me to "discover" this institution for myself. Just a short walk from the more obvious Brick Lane eateries, Tayyabs has been pleasing the crowds for many years now. I particularly like the fact it is still unlicensed and you can bring your own booze (if you must - they have a good choice of lassi and other soft drinks) while on Brick Lane these days you are lured in with offers of free drinks.
Everything I've eaten here has been delicious, and the prices are very competitive. And for people like me who can never make up their mind if faced with an extensive menu, there's daily specials. A good deal alround while probably not the right setting for a romantic dinner date.
The food is absolutely delicious. Well, some dishes, like the lamb chop, tandoori chicken, keema naan or mango lassi are out of the world. Others are okay. They are always very crowded, and queues can be over an hour, so I recommend doing an online booking. We did just a few hours before our dinner and was still able to cut the long lines.
I like it here. We were there in july and left quite happy
If my calculations are correct, this will be the 400th review for Tayyabs. Surely it doesn't need more people reviewing it, but that's not how we roll here, because I'm going to tell you a secret... stay tuned.
A year or so ago Tayyabs changed their policy and started allowing reservations. Before you'd show up, wait an hour, and finally get to sit down, after spending all of that time staring at huge plates of grilled meat and luscious plates of curries delivered to other tables. Well, here's how to go to Tayyabs without needing a reservation, and you'll be able to just walk in and sit down. Sounds too good to be true right? Well, here's a tip: go for lunch on Sunday. I know, so simple why didn't anyone else think of it (to be fair people probably did). While all your other London friends are at the pub having a Sunday roast, you can go to Tayyabs and not have to wait! Do it. You know you want to. Maybe I'll see you there, on Sunday a little after noon.
A very popular Indian/Pakistani restaurant out in grittier Whitechapel, but worth the trek out there. Lamb chops are the popular dish here but I liked the kahari chicken keema (ground chicken curry) and the dry meat (lamb cooked in curry sauce till the sauce is concentrated). The meats were juice and flavorful. Highly recommend those dishes. Also had the daal, mixed vegetables, and garlic naan, which were average but good. The only thing I didn't like was the burnt onion chips that topped most of the dishes.
It's a loud crowded restaurant but we only had to wait about 10 minutes to get seated on an early Friday evening.
There isn't much more to add, that hasn't been said already in the previous 396+ reviews.
Accept the ruckus, fast paced, fun nature of this extremely busy and popular restaurant. The service is prompt and the food is fast and full of flavour. Despite the hussle and bussle, which can feel a bit much at time, just embrace it. They do extremely well to cater for the large number of customers.
All in all, great fast, good food at affordable an affordable price.
When my parents came to visit, they wanted to get curry in the UK - heard it was better than the British food! We asked a friend and she recommended Tayyabs, so we headed there on a Wednesday evening. We phoned ahead and tried to reserve, but they said not to bother. Boy, was I annoyed when we arrived and saw a massive queue, and a crowded restaurant! I American-ly complained about this to the host, who then got us seated immediately, so perhaps it pays to be a bit of a whiny Yank sometimes. This place was PACKED with people - big groups, having a great time. It was quite hard to have conversation, we were shouting the whole time, but my mom said she didn't even mind - she just liked being around so many happy people!
We brought our own wine and beer, since they are BYOB which is great. We perused the menu which doesn't do much explanation, so consulted our phones a lot. We munched on poppadoms and chutney while we tried to figure out what to order. Then we waited for maybe 20 minutes before somebody took our order. We had asked a few servers to be attended to, and they said they'd get someone, then disappeared. Finally, someone who looked a bit managerial (different shirt) came and put his arms on the back of my parents chairs and was basically like "what do you want?" So we gave him our order, which he didn't write down, then he walked off. Fortunately he got it all right, but he was pretty rude - was it because we'd asked a few times to be served? He seemed pretty nice to everyone else. We didn't really appreciate his attitude that made it seem like we were bothering him.
Eventually, the food came out, and we forgot our annoyances about the service. We started with the lamb chops (which EVERYONE here orders) which were wonderful, great smoky grilled flavor. You get 4 in an order and we'd happily have eaten more. Then we shared a chicken with spinach, a prawn dish, and dahl gosht (lamb with lentils). Can't remember the names! Also pilau rice, tandoori roti and garlic naan. Everything was wonderful! I loved the garlic naan, and my boyfriend was raving about the roti. The prawn dish was the favorite, and know when they say it's spicy - it is! The lamb was very juicy, and the dishes weren't too greasy, which is always appreciated when eating this type of food.
Took about a million years to get the check. I don't know - I'd give them four stars for the food, but the service is so, so crap. They just rush you, don't walk you through the menu at all, and we were treated a bit rudely initially. And I can't believe they told us not to bother booking when they knew they'd have a queue out the door! That plus hardly being able to hear each other....I think next time I'll try another restaurant. BUT, the food is very good, and if you know about the service and the crowds going in, you can probably enjoy it a lot more!
Recommended to me by a colleague after I lamented that the hipsters have taken over Brick Lane.
(veg) samosa starter, karahi masala lamb chops for me, saag aloo for the wife and a garlic naan to share.
All were great and, while crowded, the place is huge and they seat people quickly (at least small parties).
Solid curry house but BYOB
The best Pakistani food in the world is in London and this is the best of the best. The flavors are subtle and yet linger on the tongue. The smells of the restaurant you will want to bottle and take home. The lamb is spicy and yet flavorful. The tandoori lamb chops are not to be missed. Naan with lamb is better than any pizza.
I was warned that Tayyabs would be quite the experience. I was also warned that all my clothes would smell like Indian/Pakistani food for a good while after.
We made reservations, but that didn't seem to matter as people just mobbed the front desk and they served whoever they saw, rather than who was there first. A sure sign of a popular restaurant! Note that this was on a Tuesday night as well!
There were four of us, and for starters, we ordered the lamb chops, tandoori chicken, and chicken tikka. Everything was good, but the lamb chops were pretty amazing.
For our mains, we ordered methi aloo gajar, karahi dhal gosht (lamb), karahi chicken keema, and the saag meat (spinach + lamb). The plates are a bit small, so plan accordingly. We asked for the karahi chicken keema to be extra spicy (since they said everything was basically mild), but they seemed to have forgotten. It was still good. My favorite was probably the karahi dhal gosht, which had lentils and lamb.
In a word, their naan is AMAZING. Huge, fluffy and so tasty. We ordered three different types (regular, keema and garlic). All were amazing, but I liked the keema since it had meat.
It's BYOB so stop by a deli somewhere beforehand to pick up some beers or wine.
Fantastic restaurant. We went to a wedding celebration there a few years back. Great food. One of the best place for currys in London!
Only got takeout from here, but the restaurant was packed and had a good lively vibe.
I got the karhai chicken and some daal. Both were pretty good but for me didn't live up to all the hype. I wouldn't dissuade anyone from going, but I wouldn't recommend it as THE place to go for desi food in London.
Tayyabs gets a lot of rep for east london asian food.
It's certainly better than your average brick lane eatery, and the fact that it is constantly busy is an excellent indicator of its popularity.
BYOB policy is always welcome as well.
But in my opinion? Overated.
The food is good, but the service isn't (if its always rammed, why should the waiters care?). Yes, its better than brick lane: but in my eyes that isn't saying a lot.
Want real Indian/Pak/Bangla food?
Go to west london.
First meal in London, excluding the airport food. So much better than food in Italy...
Perfectly spicy, perfectly cooked, quality ingredients, very fast service!
It was packed but we were seated in a minute since we were a party of two. Loved everything! Just a tad bit oily. I recommend the naan and chicken appetizer!
Tayyabs, Tayyabs. You have pissed me off, royally.
We organised a joint going away dinner as my friend and I are leaving our jobs for the bigger and better in the great beyond that is the corporate world...but I digress! Tayyabs was our choice of a restaurant and from the beginning of our visit, it was an unsettling experience!
Tayyabs is PACKED. You need a reservation. What they don't tell you? All of your party NEEDS to be present in order for you to be seated. The attitude they give you immense - how DARE you show up to dinner with 99% of your party due to a friend being late? You have to wait in the limited seating area - with sticky floors beneath you - or outside, with heaps of trash (alluring aroma in the heat, let me tell you). Those are your choices. All this was fine - we kept quiet and waited for all our party to arrive and were seated.
Everything about this experience was sub-part. I am not someone who believes you should accept shit service for good food. To be honest - Tayyabs didn't blow my mind in terms of cuisine. I have eaten in some of the best Indian restaurants in the country - hell, the world, and this didn't stack up enough that I would ignore rude comments, menus being shoved into my hand, having to beg for drinks or even any attention. Dinner was rushed - the menu is limited for vegetarians and the options are standard for Indian restaurants. The hygiene (or lack thereof) in the downstairs area of the restaurant kind of put you off eating there, but you keep quiet and eat - and the food isn't bad. I ate dinner with people who work in fine dining and they weren't pleased by anything and it's not because they are picky. It was almost as if I was asking for the world when I asked where our missing items were - everything was a bother.
It reeked, the servers were rude and condescending, the food was so-so and the ambiance was non-existent. I'll skip Tayyabs - and the hassle - in the future.
not yet anyway
Eat here too much and you can never ever expect Thai Abs like Tony Jaa, or I dunno, maybe you could.
I do love a bit of Tayyabs. For London it's super affordable but you do have to make the following compromises:
1. Most things taste the same (tasty nonetheless)
2. Portions are on the small side
3. You get rushed because of the high turn over
4. The sizzling plates will send everyone (no exceptions) into a coughing fit
Hate to dwell on the bad points because I still heartily recommend it for a cheap and cheerful curry. Those lamb chops are delectable...
Bang on solid simple fab food. Get something grilled with charcoal: Probably the lamb.
Veg is better then anywhere I have had including India. Lamb chops are decent. Chicken tikka is a miss.
First time there yesterday for diner with my in-laws.
Lucky we had a table booked as the queue there was out of this world! I could not understand why all these people were waiting as I didn't thing that many people could fit into one singe restaurant. This was of course before the staff took us to the upstairs floor. That is when I realised this was not a restaurant but a manufacture. This place is soooo big! And who say big, says loud. Really loud!
No matter how good the food can be, I do not understand what can be attracting in eating food without being able to have a conversation with your friends. Everyone is shouting over everyone else.
What a disaster!
Great food. Rice at £3 is a bit expensive.
This place has changed A LOT since the last time I was there about 5 years ago. Better? Well, a bit unsure as it's now more modern and a lot cleaner.
I had some sort of chicken dish. It was delicious and very filling :-)
I would suggest Tayyabs for groups of friends and not for business or for a date.
Great environment, big place--definitely recommended! My friends and I were a group of 15 for dinner one evening, and the staff were friendly and got our entire order correct and delivered quickly. The paneer tikka was amazing, as was the fact that Tayyabs is BYOB! Excellent prices as well.
My only complaint--while the spices and flavours of the lamb chops were amazing, 3 of the 4 chops that I received were incredibly fatty, to the point where I got only 2-3 good-sized, non-chewy/fatty bites off of each piece. But again, I guess the fact that you're paying such low prices means that the quality has to take a hit somewhere!
What a great place for a dinner. I'm not a fan of going to Indian restaurants, but this is the consequence of the lack of great restaurant where I live.
I went there with a reservation, it was great idea because it so busy.
The menu is large and offer a huge choice and daily specials. I was surprised about the low prices, quantity served is large. Great value for the money.
I tried the Biryani which was really good and a bit too spicy for me. This place is swarming after 6pm!!
A lot of waiters are going in and out, so I would recommended not to be seated next to the kitchen. The kitchen is open, you can smell the food from the adjacent tables, another reason not to go approach the kitchen.
Naan was delicious too, go for the garlic naan.
Service is nice but sometimes hard to catch. Bill remain low!
Yummy Indian food. Big servings and you can bring your own alcohol... definitely a place you must try if you visit or live in London!
This place is as solid as it gets. Probably the best Sheesh Kebab I have ever had. Moist, flavorful and delicious. The Karahi Chicken was also extremely tasty. Other highlights include the papadoms, which I have never had a reason to recommend before. These includes a spicy papadom and the sauces were extremely fresh. It's BYOB which is great. There is a corner store on Whitechapel with a great selection of beer and some wine. But Tayyabs doesn't keep your beers cold, which is a bummer. Overall, great curry place.
The process of waiting in line is an absolute cluster-capital-F, but the food is well worth it. There's a reason the line is so long, and that's because the food here is better than anything you'll find on Brick Lane.
Also BYOB which is a big plus.
I've been a long-time Tayyab's fan from back in the day when it wasn't so upmarket.
The food is always great, I've yet to had a bad meal. I always go for the lamb chops - they come out sizzling hot and are a real treat. You can't go wrong with any of the main dishes either and a mango lassi is a perfect companion. Do be warned that it can fill you up deceptively quickly.
It loses a star in my opinion as the service has gone downhill in my estimation. No sooner have you had your last bit of food the waiters seem overly-eager to get you out of the door to make way for other customers (which are usually are queuing out the door). I understand businesses want to make money, but I've not really been anywhere else where they seem so eager to take your money and get you out of the door.
Tayyabs is (to this culinarily uneducated person), perfect. A modest menu with a large number of options allows you to spend time chatting to the people you came with over that bottle of wine or beer you picked up en route (yes, it's exclusively bring your own).
I've lost count of the number of times I've been here over the last 3 years, and never been disappointed by the portion sizes, quality and price. Fine dining it may not be, but Tayyabs is well worthy of your custom.
*You can bring your own liquor, no charge!
London is supposed to have the best Indian food, next to India. Being Indian, I was ready to test out this theory, so on our last night in London Town, I was on a search for a good place. After Yelping, we decided on Tayyabs. It's in a sketchy part of town, but believe me, it's well worth it! Hold on to your bag, honey, and scurry yourself over to this place.
Walking in, you'll be overwhelmed by the amount of people. When I say that, believe me, there are A LOT of people waiting for a table! They have guys standing around wearing "Tayyabs Crowd Control" vests - not kidding!
Really GOOD food without the hole in the wall atmosphere. The restaurant was actually really cute. They move people through surprisingly quick. The place is super loud, you can barely hear the person sitting across from you.
Please do not forget to order a jug, yes a jug, of their Mango Lassi. It will shoot you straight up the heaven and back, it's that good! Everything we ordered was scrumptious. The Keema Naan was the best - so buttery and flavorful; I'm on the brink of drooling just thinking about it. Their Chutneys, Chicken Tikka, Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Kabobs, Lamb Chops, Raita - all GOOD! The only thing that I don't recommend is the Samosas, they were definitely not authentic.
This is our go to place for cheap food, but you MUST make a reservation in advance.
Cheap eats. BYOB. Delicious food. What more could you ask for?
Be prepared for really slow service. It's all part of the experience.
This is an excellent restaurant providing good quality food at a very affordable price. I went with two vegetarians and they had more than enough to choose from.
The restaurant is itself vast (on 4 floors) but the service is attentive but not pushy. The only one thing to note is that this is a BYO but if that doesn't bother you then I would strongly recommend the Lassi's they are excellent!
Tayyabs is an institution, that's for sure. The food - especially the lamb chops - is still incredibly delicious, and there are still long lines out the door, but I've taken away a star as I think the service has gone downhill. Yes, no one ever went to Tayyabs for service and ambience (let's face it, it's the Indian restaurant equivalent of the sadly lamented Wong Kei), but, still, there are certain standards, such as offering tap water - not charging for it - and trying not to injure your customers.
On the latter, try your very best to gauge the direction from which the food will be served, and sit away from there. On a recent visit, I had sizzling bowls of food thrust right past my ear onto the table, causing me to jump in the process. There wasn't even a "careful, hot!" warning which came with it. I finally managed to save myself by piling up bowls and cutlery on my side of the table so that there was no more available space. That's right - I threw another friend at the table under the bus in order to save myself. So what?
I will say one thing about the waitstaff though. They have incredible memories. Our waiter took our order (a table of six) without writing anything down and headed off to the next table (a table of ten) and took their orders before going to the kitchen. Nothing went awry with our orders, and, I believe, the other table got all of their food as well. It was a pretty amazing feat.
Fantastic Punjabi food. Their lamb chops are amazing (just hope you don't mind burnt parts in your food). Their curries as also good but I end up going for the lamb chops as a main meal (you can have it as a starter).
If you want to drink alcohol bring it with you as this place does not sell it.
Don't expect a fancy service or a quiet / romantic dinner though. And come prepared to wait for a long time, even if you booked in advance. Still totally worth it!
Come here knowing with the expectation of waiting.... and waiting.... to be seated. But it's so worth the wait because their lamb chops are as good as people say they are.
Bring your own booze, hang with friends, and your wait will seem a LOT shorter
After seeing this restaurant on many cheap eat lists as well as the excellent reviews on yelp-we decided to check this place out. We arrived around 10:30 pm and the place was very busy. We only waited about 10 minutes at this hour. This restaurant is huge and I believe it is four stories. The food is incredible. We started off with tandori paneer appetizer which was really good. Papadum and chutney in the evening were included. They were delicious -favorite chutney was mango. We ordered the Daal and also the spinach entrée both very tasty. Don't forget to go by the dessert area on the way out wow it's amazing. I wish I lived in London so I could eat here all the time!
Whenever someone asks me where to eat in London, this is the one place I always recommend. I have been here over a dozen times over 4 or 5 years. Two dozen? Quite likely. Three dozen? Certainly possible. And this place has been around for decades.
You do not want to go to Brick Lane. You want to come here. And BYOB.
You can read the other reviews that talk about the ambiance and whatnot.
I'll cut straight to the point. Here is what you want to order:
1. Chili lamb chops. They come out in a massive cloud of smoke spice. Eat all the grilled onions that accompany them.
2. Dry meat. It is not dry at all. It is delicious. Where were you all my life, dry meat?
3. Chana
4. Urid dal
5. Something else from the veggie list -- okra, baby pumpkin, change it up to spice up your life.
Gluten free notes: I eat here all the time with no problems, though I have not attempted to verify what is or is not gluten free. Papadums are fine (rice & lentil). No naan for you!
Visiting London from NY, and omg, the best Indian food I ever had. The queue was a but long, a bit chaotic, but added to atmosphere of the place. Order the appetizer of lamb chops, chicken tikka, oh so good. For entrees, between the two of us, order the lamb massala and the best chicken keema I have ever had. Oh and the naan was delish!

Lessons I've Learned From T.V.: Life, love and lessons
While it was written as a sitcom, the overall story of "How I Met Your Mother" was actually true to life, with a lot of important messages about relationships, friendships and life. I know a lot of people are going to question my judgment on this, but I am willing to argue that "How I Met Your Mother" was one of the smartest and best written comedies of this generation.
There are too many specific lessons to list, so I'll focus on a few big ones. The show teaches us that while people in your life are going to come and go, if someone is truly important to you then you have to make the effort to keep them there. It's very easy to lose touch with people and never reach out to them. While you may think you'll see them again someday, it's really easy for somebody to disappear out of your life forever. This is even true in the Facebook age. As we have seen throughout the years in the McLaren's gang, every friend in your life is going to hurt you sooner or later, intentionally or not. The important thing is to always apologize and patch things up without holding a grudge.
With regards to relationships, a book could be written on things the show advised to do and not do, but the main concept to take away is to always go after whomever you want. In the end, people are only going to regret the chances they didn't take, the things they didn't say to someone and the people they didn't go after. Nobody regrets getting rejected once the embarrassment fades and their pride heals. We saw this in Barney going girl to girl as well as in Ted's peculiar love life. Furthermore, when you want to be with someone, the way Ted always did Robin, you have to tell them and put your cards on the table. It may sting if they don't feel the same way, but you'll never move on until you know, just like Ted couldn't move on until Robin got married. Did nobody else notice he met the mother the moment he accepted that Robin was gone and never going to be his? Well played writers, well played.
Ted tells his kids in one episode that the biggest thing to take away from the show is that life will always work itself out and things will unravel the way they are supposed to. Sometimes the universe is going to present you with opportunities and things you never would have saw coming. Sometimes you are going to run into people or opportunities by chance or coincidence, but it all happens for a reason. You shouldn't overanalyze everything that happens to you, but you should take advantage of these chances, as they may be there for a reason. You also shouldn't stress out the way Ted does in every single episode about dying alone, never finding the right person or ending up at the wrong job. We do have to work towards earning the life we want, but things will always work themselves out the way they were meant to. At least that's what Ted Mosbey says, and I'm willing to believe him.

Georgetown (20-5) at (18) Connecticut (19-5)
Austin Freeman's injured ankle isn't expected to be a problem for Georgetown.
Connecticut's Kemba Walker seems to have ended his slump.
Two of the Big East's top scorers appear ready for Wednesday night's meeting in Hartford, as Freeman looks to lead the ninth-ranked Hoyas to a ninth straight win when they face Walker and the No. 13 Huskies.
Georgetown (20-5, 9-4) received a bit of a scare Sunday when a Marquette player landed on Freeman's ankle while he was on the floor late in the first half. He went to the locker room to get taped up and started the second half on the bench.
Freeman entered 3 minutes later and scored eight of his 17 points after halftime as the Hoyas rallied for a 69-60 victory.
"I was in pain, but I played through it," said Freeman, third in the Big East with 18.5 points per game. "It didn't hurt as much while I played, so I'm good."
Freeman's performance helped Georgetown to its longest conference winning streak since reeling off 11 in a row in its 2006-07 Final Four season. The Hoyas are in sole possession of third place in the Big East after opening 1-4.
"That's just how the Big East is," said Chris Wright, who had 20 points. "We won eight (straight) games, and we're still in third place."
The Hoyas are playing better defense during their run, limiting four of their last six opponents to 60 points or fewer, but Freeman's play has also keyed the turnaround.
The Big East preseason player of the year is averaging 20.5 points on 50.4 percent shooting during the winning streak after averaging 9.7 and shooting 32.3 percent in his previous three games, all losses. The Hoyas are 13-1 when he scores 15 or more.
Freeman had 33 points and went 5 of 9 from 3-point range in last season's 72-69 home win over UConn, Georgetown's fourth straight victory in the series after losing the previous 11.
Walker finished with nine points on 2-of-7 shooting for the Huskies (19-5, 7-5) in last season's meeting, and he had been experiencing similar shooting woes over the last couple of weeks.
Walker, second in the conference with 22.8 points per game, entered Sunday's matchup with Providence averaging 15.2 on 29.5 percent shooting over his previous five contests.
The junior guard seemed to find his touch against the Friars, finishing with 22 points on 7-of-10 shooting in a 75-57 win. It was Walker's 16th 20-point game of the season and UConn, 1 1/2 games back of the Hoyas, is 14-2 when he reaches that mark.
"It felt good just to be back. I haven't been myself lately," Walker said. "I brought the energy, played hard and things went well for me. I was relieved."
Walker was aided by a surprising performance from Jamal Coombs-McDaniel, who scored 25 points and shot 10 of 17 off the bench. The sophomore forward came into the game averaging 4.5 points.
"I'm going to keep working and hopefully things will keep happening like this," Coombs-McDaniel said. "Everyone contributed and the more things come together the better our team is going to be."
The Huskies, 7-1 at the XL Center, have won two of three overall after dropping two straight.
UConn is 3-1 against teams ranked in the top 10, while three of Georgetown's last five wins have come against teams ranked 15th or higher.
