Abu Hamza's sons to open kebab shop in Acton?

I hear that two of Abu Hamza's sons are to open a kebab shop at 138 Churchfield Road (formerly Turkish Best Mangal) Can anyone confirm this?

Sounds a great story...

If they do, I'll boycott Churchfield Rd.

Nikki Howard ● 4500d

Nikki - that is daft even by your own high standards!Luckily, you can't possibly mean it....I have my sleuth on the case.

Sara Nathan ● 4500d

Won't be boycotting Tim or Anthony Bell.  They are essentials.

Nikki Howard ● 4500d

Exactly!Nor the cupcakes, heart & Soul, Anokha, Cape charity shop, Ellie, Fields, L'Oriental, Londis, Laveli, Angela Malik, Pearls, The Rocket, Village trading, Aston Rowe or Sunny at Paint.Doesn't leave a whole lot to boycott really in protest, does it?

Would certainly be happier if Hamza and co opened up in Bellmarsh or Sing Sing.

Should we visit the father's sins upon the children, even unto the seventh generation? Can't be all fun being his offspring. And it's scarcely by choice.

MOST OF HIS SONS ARE IN PRISON

Perhaps Hamza Snr will be able to lend a hand....by post from Rykers Island.

Hooky Kebabs?  Better keep an eye out!

Nikki Howard ● 4499d

All I want to know is whether the kebabs will be any good.And agree with Sarah - its a bit harsh to be blaming the sons for whatever their father has done.

Richard Grange ● 4499d

As I said previously he has 5 sons and 4 are in prison for fraud, armed robbery and violence so maybe the one teenage son is opening the kebab shop I think not, this is the same family who flytipped outside my house but they did not bank on me going to the house and getting the mum to come round and pick it up

Diana Oneill ● 4499d

Really? I had only heard of one son in prison - but may be out of date.

Sara Nathan ● 4499d

Sounds like a lovely family!

Jean F Fernandez ● 4499d

To misquote Oscar Wilde, to have one son in prison is unfortunate, but to have two looks like carelessness.

I hope it will be kosher.We could do with some kosher kebabs in Acton.Halal gets a bit monotonous after 1400 years or so.

Hi thereThe forum about Hamzas Son opening in bestmangal are untrue.As far as myself and father in law (Mr Stoyan leaseholder) find the comments amuzing and somehow damaging. All welcome to come in for a coffee, turish shish kebab served with a glass of portuguese wine (unfortenatly not for free).In the meanwhile I beieve there maybe some other amuzing stories like cafes preparing hot food in basements without any A3 planning permission and shops selling foreign cigarretes""Many thanksTiago

Thanks for clearing that up, Tiago.Amazing what you hear in the queue at Morrisons!!Despita agreeing with Sara's non-judgemental comments in principal, I think that end of Churchfield Road is intimidating enough already.Good luck with your new kebab shop?When do you open?

Emma Smyth ● 4498d

I doubt if on a taste test, you could tell the difference...just different prayers said over them - and kosher meat may be from more restricted parts of the beast (not sure about that though) NO hind quarters!Still, at least you can be pretty sure it's not pork!

Sara Nathan ● 4498d

Hi EmmaIndeed, it can be quite amazing and amusing, but so is EastEnders!Anyhow, we are aiming to Reopen the restaurant side for the World Cup. With a brand new Grill Menu, however we shall notify you and also advertise on W3,W4 and W5!Looking forward to meet you.Come On England and Forca Portugal!Many Thanks

Tiago Nogueira ● 4498d

Looking forward to trying out the new menu - popped in before the refurb and it was great then!As for the cafe next door, haven't been in yet but do you sell pasteis de nata?

Dan Runciman ● 4498d

Fields do I think - and Estoril too - but I can't recall whether it is currently trading - seems a bit erratic.

Sara Nathan ● 4498d

Great, we do too (from the Portuguese Bakery every morning) plus many other Portuguese bits like chourico and bacalhau (saltcod)Kind regards
