To take it literal is to deny the point that Ipswich is behind a lot of UK towns in most aspects. |  |

Aspects such as what? Very intrigued to know how Ipswich is behind towns such as Cheshunt, Exmouth, Hednesford and Nuneaton for starters. |  | | |

That won't help. All that is in there is a complaint about the lack of burritos and 'basic niceties'. |  |

I was pointing people there as I can't really be bothered with a purely confrontational thread. | |

It's amusing really. You were one of a few on here who are first to come down with the hammer when you feel I'm being argumentative, and now you're upset you can't get a rise out of me.
In recent months I've realised who's worth chatting to on here and who isn't. Some I'm surprised by, others not so much. | |

You weren't expecting a rise off the back of your Ipswich is sh1t thread when at a rough guestimate 70% of the board live in or around the area?
It is amusing, you're quite correct. |  |

I always manage to have a decent night out.
Shopping is poor compared to Norwich/Cambridge, granted. | |

Yeah, I was being slightly facetious.
It has some lovely areas (the houses by the park, the waterfront, the parks), but is seriously lacking with culture, arts, music and food really. | |

I live here too, and honestly the place needs work. Didn't do it for a rise, it was a discussion and it the original post was aimed at burritos. This thread is a rogue one, unprovoked, aimed specifically at ridiculing someone. The two are quite different in intent IMO. | |

Exactly. Dare I say Ipswich would really benefit with a hipster influx if it wants to get some culture. | |

You'd be wrong.
Hipsters are barely people. They need to realise there's a reason everybody's Dads stopped that sort of nonsense 30 years ago. |  |

As in I'm miles off, or the town is miles off?
Aside from the chains, there are very few independent places to eat of any worth (Museum Street Café, Love Thy Burger and Kwan Thai excluded). | |

Twenty 5, Trongs, Aqua 8, Il Punto, Aurora, Waterfront, Bistro on the Quay... |  |

They're all pretty average though really (except for Trongs - I forgot about that) and mainly located in one area.
I'm not trying to start a big argument, but there's no way that Ipswich competes with Bury, Cambridge or Norwich for independent, unique places to eat. | |

Ditto. There's very little specialist places in Ipswich, which is the big independent "in" thing at present. You know, those places that only specialise in one thing, but nail it hard. | |

Enough reasonable Indian places, 2/3 boss ones. Bekash is tiptop.
Mizu is perennially ace. Aqua pretty good, if dear. Rios always excellent. Casablanca/ Ottoman/ Meze (sp) all top Med/ North African joints. Ottoman in particular is the best kebab I've had outside North London.
Waterfront/ Last Anchor pretentious, but tasty food. Cult run by the Brewery Tap lot, but better. Sweet P doing his thing (his jerk seasoning needs more spice, but whatever).
Selkirk turning out unreal Nepalese cuisine.
There's a bunch wrong with this town; places to eat, however, ain't the problem...
(I feel your suggestions too, btw - Museum St is just brilliant...) | |
