"Lahpet already have their original restaurant in Shoreditch, but in our opinion their Covent Garden spot is bigger, better, and importantly, tastier. Downstairs you’ve got a buzzing open kitchen and big sharing tables that are perfect for anyone who’s on a solo mission to eat some excellent noodle soup. Upstairs, the lighting is a little moodier and there are lots of two-person tables that will suit a date night involving sweetcorn and shallot fritters, several small plates, and a round of their pickled tea take on a classic martini. Expect great vegan options, gluten-free numbers, and enough ginger to shock you out of your urban blues." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
