"Evidence that applying stress to already stressful situations will only end in tears: that birthday party where you spent the entire night refusing to do karaoke, every single one-night stand ever, and of course, your A-level results. That’s why simplicity should be at the top of your agenda when you’re starting to dip a toe in dining out again, and nowhere says ‘keep it simple’ like Noodle and Beer. A Chongqing noodle and Sichuan restaurant in Spitalfields, this place serves reliably excellent food you can gobble up whilst offering a ‘so, how’s the family?’ between rounds of thick, chewy tian-shui mian and a fiery bowl of gong-bao ji ding. They’ve got a few tables out front and, as you might have guessed, several beers to choose from." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver
