This two-storey restaurant, which spotlights Sichuan flavours, is just outside the official boundaries of London’s Chinatown. Representing a region famous for bright red broths and mouth-numbing dried-chilli concoctions, it’s somewhere for people who enjoy their rice with next-level spice. It’s also somewhere to stick to the specialities: sea bass in sizzling chilli oil or pork dan dan noodles.

DUCKSOUP is part of the family that includes Little Duck The Picklery and Camille. All three London gems in our humble opinion! Head straight to Soho for chef Tom Lake’s exquisite small plates and a whole array of natural vinos. 

One of the newest addition to the Soho House family in London, Kettner's Townhouse is a lovely small hotel in the heart of Soho. We also love the bar for a late night drink.

This spot specialises in udon: thick, soft, flour noodles from the south of Japan, traditionally kneaded by foot. The noodles here are made authentically (allowing body weight to do much of the work) and the broths are vividly flavourful. Everything is designed to be eaten quickly (so the noodles remain al dente), making this one of Soho’s finest in-and-out spots.
