"When our former highest-rated restaurant Singburi closed, we entered an intense period of mourning when we considered calling their old booking line like a lovesick teenager. Now, Singburi is back, baby. The new Shoreditch location is a shining glass box dressed up in its trendy orange terrazzo best, with a blaring soundtrack of 2Pac and ‘80s Billy Squier and Thai food that will haunt your psyche quicker than you can say “another makrut gimlet, please”. The tick-tick-tick spice time bomb of the raw beef larb alone makes getting strategic for a booking worth it. This is Singburi 2.0—sexy, considered, and still a very good time. This is the hottest booking in London right now. It’s too late for any primetime action, so you’re going to need to give strategy the middle finger, accept any remaining reservations with a pleading smile, and plan your life around it. There are several weekday lunchtime bookings still up for grabs and check the day before—we’ve found peak dinner tables open up." - 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

"Just when we thought we were going to have to start describing Shoreditch as “Covent Garden for people who are really into Urban Outfitters”, one of London’s best—and coolest—Thai restaurants moved into the area. The slow-drip and full-throttle spices coming out of Singburi 2.0’s buzzing open kitchen will do much more than clear your sinuses—say, make you write poetry about a dill pork sausage. It’s a sexy, bustling, good times restaurant, and may the odds of securing an ever elusive booking be ever in your favour. This is the hottest booking in London right now.

"Verdict: The return of Singburi is the ultimate “we’re so back, baby” London dining moment. After this legend closed its doors in Leytonstone, there was an intense moo krob mourning period. But the new Shoreditch location has the same tick-tick-tick spice time bomb Thai cooking with a glossy hair-flick of sexiness. It’s a blast. This is the hottest booking in London right now.

"The Verdict: Sizzling, sexy, and a certified good time—Singburi 2.0 lives up to the high expectations set for it. Securing a booking at Singburi’s new Shoreditch restaurant is done the old-fashioned way: refreshing OpenTable while whispering “please please please please”. The legendary Thai spot’s old Leytonstone location was our highest-rated restaurant in London. While more polished, and with a different menu, Singburi is instantly the coolest seat in London and the tick-tick-tick spice time bomb of the raw beef larb alone makes getting strategic for a booking worth it.
