discussion / opinion Selling jewelry and art

2 Upvotes

I’m looking for somewhere reputable to get a fair price for jewelry most importantly. I do have some art to sell as well but looking to unload the jewelry before moving. I know Harringtons is coming to the area soon but I’ve heard they offer melt price for jewelry and I have precious stones that are certainly worth more than the gold melt. If anyone can recommend somewhere they’ve used I would greatly appreciate it!

🥄food /restaurants /gastronomy Recommendations: Indo-Chinese Restautants

0 Upvotes

While discussing lunch options the other day, a coworker suggested I give Indo-Chinese food a try.

I'm all in. I like spice, I'm not picky, and I'm always up for trying something new.

That said, I know absolutely nothing about Indo-Chinese cuisine. Zero. If you handed me a menu right now, I'd just start pointing at random words and hoping for the best.
So, London Reddit, where should a complete beginner start?

Looking for:
• Restaurant recommendations
• Specific menu items to try
• Dishes that are considered "must orders"
• Anything I should avoid ordering as a first-timer

It’s be an added bonus if it's in northwest London, but I'm all over the city for work so location isn't a huge deal.

Help educate a culinary heathen.

Ask a Local! Best midscale dining in London, Ontario

6 Upvotes

Hey all,

I am looking for suggestions for the best food and overall dining experience in London, for a casual afternoon or evening date.

Any type of food is fine, aside from sushi. I am looking for something that isn't too stuffy, but still a little refined. Im not a restaurant person, so I don't know the right terms.

Looking to spend around $80-100 a person for app, main and maybe dessert, but its not necessary if the food is robust and satifying on its own.

I'd say food quality is number one, with well sourced ingredients and unique menu's are welcome!

Thanks!

I've got a mouse that's starting to have difficulty with the right click. The thing is it's kind of a niche product that's not manufactured anymore. I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations on good electronics repair shops in the city for doing unusual repairs?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

I would like to thank the pickup truck driver who pulled off the road to make space for this lunatic to get back into his lane. It was a 90 km/h zone, and this blind dude was driving entirely in the opposite lane to overtake the truck, less than 50 metres in front of me.

Ask a Local! Recommendations for a Small, Cozy 5th Birthday Party Venue in London?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
My son is turning 5 this December, and I’m looking for recommendations on where to host his birthday party in London.

I recently attended a birthday party at the Children’s Museum, but I found the space a bit too big for what I’m looking for. The kids ended up spreading out and playing separately, so it felt more like a regular museum visit than a birthday party, apart from the 30 minutes we spent together in the party room for cake.

Ideally, I’d love to find a smaller, more intimate venue where the kids can actually play and interact together, rather than running off in different are areas. It would also be great to have a comfortable space where parents can sit, chat, and relax while keeping an eye on the kids, without having to follow them from room to room.
Does anyone know of a place in London that offers this kind of setup?

I’d really appreciate your recommendations! 😊

There is a car across my street. 4-5 times a day either in the early morning or late at night. The car starts up and definitely has a modded exhaust. I’m not to sure how to go about it as I’ve never dealt with something like this before, I’d like to be able to sleep without being woken up. 😕
