Le Bab Soho

"The modern shawarma spot is open Monday to Wednesday, and with EOTHO their ‘bab and chips’ - an order that will roll off the tongue for many in London - is just £5. So it would be rude not to throw in a doner beignet too." - jake missing

"Since opening in 2015, Le Bab have been proving it’s possible to make high-end kebabs without being a totally tone-deaf about it. Positioned somewhere between après-ski and après-Scala, their double-cooked fries come with their own pan of molten cheese sauce. Dip them into it delicately with a raised pinky-finger, or go down the poutine route and pour the whole lot on top. No word as yet on whether they’ll be served at sibling Maison Bab — soon to open in Covent Garden opposite Temper Three." - Emma Hughes

"London’s passion for reinventing foodstuffs is matched only by its passionate hatred for reinventing foodstuffs. Try serving fish and chips in any way other than the norm and you risk being lynched, but Le Bab, a modern kebab restaurant, is doing different kebabs that are well worth trying. There’s a lunch menu that’s just three tasty items: pork shawarma with fries, lamb flatbread, and falafel - everything’s is under a tenner, and it’s really quite delicious. This is one of Soho’s best casual and cost-effective daytime options." - Jake Missing
