The Times
Charlotte Ivers confessed her new-found addiction to the mouth-numbing flavours of Chongqing, to which she has returned three times at this new restaurant off Regent Street, in Kingly Court.
“One bite and your whole mouth is tingling and sensitive”, she says of the “novel delight” of tasting its wontons and broth for the first time. “It is no exaggeration to say I have thought of these dumplings every day since.”
Xiaomian means little noodles and they are, Charlotte says, “perhaps the best noodles I have had in my life. On the way home I walk past a ramen restaurant and feel sad for everyone inside.”
