"There’s no point beating around the bush with Dim Sum & Duck: it’s the best all-round Cantonese restaurant in London. The dumplings, from xiaolongbao to cheung fun, are superb. The ho fun is slippery and full of the aroma of wok hei. Yes, the walk-in-only queues are consistent. And no, it isn’t fine dining service. But whether you squeeze into its box-sized dining room or get a spot under the canopy out front, the food very quickly takes permanent residence in your brain. Specifically the part that looks like a merry-go-round and has different delicious foods manically turning 24/7." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
