Hi,
we’re four guys, and we’ve put together Westminster’s restaurant scene in an app called Vota. The concept is simple: you see two places side by side (for example Famille vs. Kachina Southwestern Grill), you choose the place you’d rather go to, and the ranking updates instantly. The more people vote, the more accurate the list gets over time. There are still a few duplicates here and there, but I’m continuously cleaning up the data.

Here’s the iPhone version, with categories that actually fit Westminster’s food scene:

And here’s the Android version (finally live):

P.S. I’m not from Westminster (I live in Gothenburg). I’m not collecting data, not selling anything, and the app does not use AI-generated content. I’m posting in a few different subreddits because we now support more regions, and I genuinely want honest feedback from people who actually know the area.

I have 2 spare tickets to Bastille on Sunday night in Colchester for free!

If anybody wants 2 tickets to Bastille on Sunday night in Colchester, I have 2 spare which are free. I won them in an Asda rewards thing, but I can't attend so happy to pass them on to someone if you want them?

DND Group - Basildon/Billericay/Online

Hey! Was looking for a Dungeons and Dragons group I could join in and around the Basildon / Billericay area. I'm flexible on days, easiest being weekends, and available most evenings too. Wanted to see if there were any groups / games venues hosting that would be looking for new players? Also available for discord /online play too

Saffron Walden residents, how frustrating is it that the station is in a neighbouring village?

Do you often have to get a taxi the short distance to and from Audley End station given that it's not very walkable especially at night. Are taxis always available in both directions? Is it annoying?

I quite like some of Count Binface's policies, whats wrong with the folk of clacton ?

I read his policies he said that

  • He will build an affordable home . How many did Nigel pledge to build ?
  • He wouldnt take 5 million pound donations but would declare them if he did. Why is Nigel's policy on this issue more appealing
  • He said that if you resign from parliament you cant stand in the resulting by election. Again i dont understand why Nigel thinks its ok to resign and then immediately re-stand. To me this issue should be brought up in parliament for a new law
  • He said he would spend more time in clacton than in USA. Again this appears to be the opposite of Nigels policy . Why is Nigel's policy more appealing to the folk of clacton
  • He pledged to boost the economy, fame and prestige of the region. I dont think Nigel has done much for clacton other than to make it look like a backwards outpost for racism
