Thonglor Express - Review - Bloomsbury - London - The Infatuation
"Thonglor Express’ all-you-can-eat lunch is like a buffet run by strict parents. The kind who make you finish your plate before reaching for more. At the Thai spot near Tottenham Court Road, line up by the counter from 2:30pm, point politely at what you want, and the servers behind the till scoop panang curry over rice and vegetarian spring rolls. When you finish the disposable bowl, you can return to the counter for as many refills as you want until 4:30pm when the buffet cuts off. The curries are creamy and piping hot, and things like fried fish is regularly topped up, making it a great-value lunch option for anyone who never gets fully satisfied from a build-your-own-salad-bowl lunch. You’ll spot friends splitting a sticky mango rice by the back, or couples sitting side by side while tucking into their tofu stir-fry. But it’s a small, casual space, and the majority of seating is solo-friendly, making it ideal for a day-off post-shopping lunch. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Pause Unmute" - Rianne Shlebak
