Hygiene is optional; taste is all

This is a cracking place to go for superlative industrial dim sum at lunchtime. Headline here is cheap,fast and furious. These people don't hang around. You can be in and out in under 30 minutes and feed four people really well for under £30. I've been going here for about 11 years, which accounts for the dewlap I've developed as a result of too many deep fried dumplings. It's a bit of a favourite with the media crew around Wardour Street and you might find your self cosying up to some annoying advertising "creatives", but fortunately the staff treat them with the same disdain as everyone else, so that's ok. Not the best place to have a business discussion though as the hard sell from the trolley-ladies can break conversation. Also, my mum was a bit sniffy about the hygiene of the place, but I think it adds to the atmosphere.
