"Just when we thought we were going to have to start describing Shoreditch as “Covent Garden for people who are really into Urban Outfitters”, one of London’s best—and coolest—Thai restaurants moved into the area. The slow-drip and full-throttle spices coming out of Singburi 2.0’s buzzing open kitchen will do much more than clear your sinuses—say, make you write poetry about a dill pork sausage. It’s a sexy, bustling, good times restaurant, and may the odds of securing an ever elusive booking be ever in your favour. This is the hottest booking in London right now. It’s too late for any primetime action, so you’re going to need to give strategy the middle finger, accept any remaining reservations with a pleading smile, and plan your life around it. There are several weekday lunchtime bookings still up for grabs and check the day before—we’ve found peak dinner tables open up." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna
