The best chinese in London

January 25, 2009

I challenge anyone to find a better Chinese restaurant in London! Word of its greatness has traveled so far that friends have been told about it in Beijing.
In an interview Jung Chang (Wild Swans, Mao: The Unknown Story) said this was her favourite restaurant in London as it specialises in Szechuan - the province where she is from - cuisine. Order from the Szechuan menu (they also do a conventional Chinese buffet which I have never tried) and you can't go wrong. The flavours are complex, deep, rich and hot, the service and value for money excellent.
This is definitely worth a trip to Kilburn from anywhere in London; combine it with the cinema / theatre at the great Tricycle arts centre down the road if you need to justify the trip.
