A. Wong

The only Chinese restaurant outside Asia to hold two Michelin stars, A. Wong on Wilton Road is chef Andrew Wong's extraordinary love letter to the full breadth of Chinese culinary history. By night the Collections of China tasting menu takes you through 30 dishes and 3,000 years of regional cooking in a single sitting, with standouts including the inside out xiao long bao filled with ginger vinegar foam and the iconic steamed duck yolk custard bun; at lunch, the dim sum menu is equally exceptional and considerably easier to get a table for.

Bang Bang Oriental Foodhall

London's largest Asian food hall, Bang Bang Oriental sits on the Edgware Road in Colindale and packs nearly 30 specialist food kiosks into 32,000 square feet, spanning everything from Cantonese roast duck and Korean bibimbap to Indian street food, Japanese ramen, Filipino grilled pork and Taiwanese bubble tea. The format is simple: grab a table, split up, and work your way around the stalls. Worth the trip out to Zone 4 for any serious fan of Asian food.
