There’s a lot to love about this restaurant and bar right at the top of the Now Building, next to Tottenham Court Road Tube station. The modern-Chinese cooking is superb, the glitzy decor is proper talking-point stuff (the cherry blossom garden is incredible), and the cocktails very drinkable indeed. But you don’t need to take our word for it when Dan Akroyd (yep, the Dan Akroyd) is a fan:
‘These guys seriously know how to make a statement, incredible Chinese-style food and their rooftop bar serves a Skull Candy cocktail that’s packs a punch, served in the Crystal Head skull, it arrives smoking. I’ve heard the brunches are where the party’s at, but I leave that to the kids these days.’
It’s one of five UK outposts from the Tattu group, with other locations in Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham and Manchester, but it looks like they’ve pulled out all the stops for their London launch. Keep an eye out for some great special events, and head down for lunch for some high-quality cooking with serious value.
