Liu Xiaomian Carnaby
London, Soho - Chinese - Restaurant
Following on from the success of their Marylebone original, Charlene Liu and Linda Liu’s Soho offshoot is housed in a basic, casual spot on the first floor of Kingly Court. Choice is down to variations on two Chongqing classics: pork, beef or vegan xiaomian wheat noodles in an aromatic and spicy broth, or hot-and-sour glass noodles (minced pork, vegan or gluten-free). You can dial the heat up or down, or opt for the ‘numbing’ pork-filled wonton in a broth packed with Szechuan peppercorns – perhaps with a cooling side of cucumber salad. Beer, cocktails or iced tea may be preferable to wine. Fast-paced, friendly staff give good advice, while happy customers bring laughter and life.
