“Fiercely hot and mouth-numbing noodles” (“effectively street food”) are the promise at this Asian duo, from Liu Qing and Charlene Liu, which showcases the xiaomian noodles of Chongqing, their hometown in southwest China. The original is in Soho’s Kingly Court, although it was its location in a Marylebone pub – The Jackalope – which inspired more reports this year: “the ambience is utterly unrefined”, “the flavours are powerful… to the extent that there is some masochism in eating here. But everyone should try, at least once!”

For 34 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).
