Harden's survey result
Summary
“Cheap ’n’ cheerful” Malaysian-Chinese diner on the edge of Chinatown that’s built a strong fan-base over 25 years for its “excellent food that does not break the bank”, combining classic regional dishes with more unusual family recipes. Top Tip – “exceptional Singapore laksa”.
Summary
It’s “nothing special to look at, down an alleyway” in Chinatown, but “you must go here for the fantastic Malaysian food” – including “the best Singapore laksa ever”. This family-run diner was established in 1998, serving classic Malaysian-Chinese dishes including nasi goreng and beef rendang. (Its former sibling in Westbourne Grove became a Japanese izakaya before closing down during the pandemic.)
Summary
“Cheap but very tasty Malaysian food” provides a “compelling reason” to choose this well-established fixture in a Chinatown alleyway. (Its former Bayswater sibling still has ‘C&R’ in the title, but is now separately run as a Japanese izakaya.)

For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
