Excellent Chinese restaurant in Chinatown
Excellent Chinese resturant in Gerrard St, the heart of London's Chinatown. Decor and ambience is modern and stylish, unlike many of the other more traditional places in Chinatown. There even seemed to be a Cafe Del Mar CD playing in the background! We got a table upstairs by the big glass window overlooking Gerrard St, and I would recommend this if you can get it.
Food was absolutely excellent: we had the jasmine ribs and pork dumplings for starters which were both wonderful. And the rib-eye beef dish and Szechuan duck main courses were absolutely brilliant as well. We had the mixed mushroom side dish as well, and that was also really good (though not the cheapest at £8).
Service was great. We had the head waiter who was very helpful, friendly and chatty. The rest of the staff were great too.
Probably not the cheapest restaurant in Chinatown (£56 including 10% service for the above + 1 egg fried rice + 2 glasses of wine + 2 Tsing Tao beers), but we thought it was well worth it.
