Bosslady London just opened their pop-up in the Forza Win space in Peckham and is supposedly running every Sunday in August and September. Currently, you reserve a spot by prepaying for a ticket (good for one bowl of noodles) on their website for a specified date. Right now they're running one main dish, HK clear soup beef brisket noodles, with the option to add fried fish skin, choi sum or extra noodles. I'd definitely recommend adding all three, especially the fried fish skin! Okay, on to the food. The noodles were cooked to perfect al dente and had good chew. The beef was great quality and came in two thick slabs. The best part, though, was definitely the fish skin. Light, crispy and super delicious. I've managed to stumble upon fried fish skin only once previously in London, and it was as a complimentary bar snack at Texture. Hopefully Bosslady continues to operating and expand their offerings, as I have to admit that beef brisket noodles aren't my go-to. My selfish wants would like to see them continue down the fish skin path and offer other random fish add-ons: fish balls, fish cake and fish skin dumplings (潮州魚餃). One last thing. I really enjoyed the plastic yellow bowl that the noodles came in, but Bosslady needs to complete the HK noodle stall feel and serve the lemon tea in tall translucent plastic cups with thin round slices of lemon! read more

Bosslady Noodle Bar - Beef noodle soup with fish scratchings - Cantonese Near Me - London, XGL

After a trepidatious walk round the back of the Bussey Building, I uncertainly ventured among the street art of Roa and Phlegm to find a tiny ramshackle shack with a tiny sign detailing that I had indeed found Boss Lady, home of Peckham's new secret Hong Kong noodle joint. To be succinct, the food was super delicious. Menu is super small which I liked. The Beef and Radish was superior in my mind, very clean and no too dissimilar to Pho. The beef was super tender and the noodles were unlike the ones I'm use to. Laksa was a bit spicy for my usual taste but still incredible. Homemade wontons were pockets of joy and great when accompanied with the molten red liquid homemade chilli oil. A very cosy and tiny little spot which was very intimate and super cute. Although I didn't catch his name, the chef /owner was so lovely and played Womack and Womack amongst other great tunes. So if you can find it, GO THERE. Great value, great food. Great, great, great. read more
