A legendary no-frills Chinatown cafeteria where massive portions and rock-bottom prices generate permanent queues of hungry students and tourists.
Ordering Strategy
Portions are notoriously huge (especially the rice), so consider sharing if you aren't starving. Service is brisk and functional.
What to order
Chicken Katsu Curry
The defining dish of the restaurant—vast, comforting, and ridiculously cheap.
Tori Karaage
Deep-fried chicken with a thick, addictive crust served in portion sizes that often defeat solo diners.
Sushi and Sashimi
A surprisingly good sushi and sashimi selection (the best sashimi I've ever had in London, in fact).

Good to know
Strictly cash only and no reservations. Expect to queue outside, and avoid bringing groups larger than four due to tight seating.
