Featuring Freshly Made Dim Sum at Orient London
This is certainly not the type of place I would normally venture into. It’s location makes it feel like it’s going to be a bit of a tourist trap, however what I found during my visit was positively surprising. I’d booked for lunch with a friend and when I arrived the restaurant was positively heaving. Not surprising I suppose when you consider it’s prime spot on Wardour Street, just a chopstick throw away from Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square. It may well be a cliché but you still can’t help feeling positive when you see Chinese eating in a Chinese restaurant.
