Harden's survey result
Summary
“By day a florist, by night an exceptional Thai restaurant” – Wichet Khongphoon’s “refined and authentic” spot in King’s Cross is “one of the best Thai eateries in town” and certainly the most unusual – “it always feels celebratory to eat among the colourful blooms”. The “high-quality and interesting food is not your western-style menu”, but reflects Wichet’s upbringing on Phuket in southern Thailand.
Summary
“A gem” in King’s Cross, this “cosy, flower-filled space” serves some of the “most delicious Thai food in North London”. Wichet Khongphoon, the “friendly and charming owner”, is from Phuket in southern Thailand, and his “small, beautifully executed menu” reflects the cuisine of the region.
Summary
“Superb, zesty southern Thai food” has won a sizeable fanclub for this “cramped canteen” in King’s Cross and as a result it’s “frequently full”. It may be “a bit pricier than many such places in London, but that is reflected in the top-notch quality of the food”.

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).

Supawan Restaurant Diner Reviews
"who wouldn't enjoy dining in a flower shop? I guess hay-fever sufferers but otherwise this keeps diners well looked after. Spicing is a bit moderated I suspect but rich with enough bite, menu is well thought through, service is cheerful and happy to sell you a shrub on the way out."
