"The Burmese spot in Shoreditch has a whole online pantry to choose from that’s available for delivery and collection. There are coconut broth noodles kits for 2-3 people, lentil chow chow, and more. It’s a great option for vegetarians and vegans, especially if they’re of a lazy disposition. Find the whole menu here." - jake missing
"What It Is: A casual Burmese restaurant in Shoreditch Perfect For: Casual Weeknight Dinner, Catching Up With Mates, Date Night, Keeping It Kinda Healthy, Vegetarians, Lahpet’s new spot on the Bethnal Green Road is all dim lighting, cocktails and curries to share. Our lentil curry, baked aubergine, and chickpea paratha were all very satisfying. We’ll be sticking to the vegetarian options next time though because the pork and dish curries didn’t blow us away. The Verdict: Decent. Not one to travel across London for, but an excellent back-pocket restaurant for when you’re in the area." - sam collins, oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, eileen twum

With salad and noodle making kits available from their online store, you can create their great food at home. They’ve also got a range of pantry items for delivery or pickup. Order here." - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"The third restaurant from the people behind the original Burmese spot in Shoreditch, Lahpet Larder is a Bermondsey outpost serving comforting coconut noodles, as well as dried and pickled supplies imported from Myanmar in their shop." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"Mohinga was in the news for all the wrong reasons this year, mainly because someone thought they could do a chicken mohinga — an idea that makes as much sense as beef bouillabaisse or mince on toast with beans instead of mince. The real thing — a catfish broth as thick as chowder, with rice noodles, boiled egg and split pea fritters — is one of the best things on the menu at Lahpet. Chilli oil status: Fine, but please don’t call it something else and say it’s progress." - Jonathan Nunn
