The Hit List: New London Restaurants To Try Right Now - London - The Infatuation

"Lai Rai has a devilish energy when darkness falls. The Vietnamese restaurant in Peckham glows a seductive red while mixing Blade Runner-ish decor with chuggable gái nhấy rum cocktails and prawn lollipops we could eat all night. While some friends pop in for a beer and a plate of crunching sesame crackers with tofu whip, others stumble down the stairs while cackling, having mixed electric beef jerky and rice paper salad with several phở-spiced whiskies. We’ll be back to try the lunch-only bánh mì but for now, the scattered menu of mini, medium, and biggish bits is best paired with a cold drink and loose conversation." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, heidi lauth beasley, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, daisy meager, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
