However, Bian Dang's gua bao should definitely be on your shortlist when you're visiting Camden Town! I had two small Taiwanese steamed buns for seven pounds, one with pork belly and one with chicken. The size was just about right so afterwards you can still try something else from a different market stall, which for me is a big plus. Especially, since both buns were very, very good. The chicken was crispy outside and juicy inside and a great experience. But the one with pork belly... it was divine. The different flavours and textures with the pickles and powdered peanut was just perfect. And for that I can only give 5 stars!

The oyster mushroom bun was SO GOOD. Perfectly crunchy fried mushroom in a soft, delicious bun with…read morepickles and a hoisin-y sauce. I just wish the prices were a little more affordable (I paid 4 pounds for one bun) so that I could eat more. Definitely a must try if you're in the Camden Market area!

I found that the restaurant runs expensive and didn't live up to my expectations fully as the dishes were inconsistent and I found service to be chaotic -- particularly, when the staff spilled the cucumber dressing and almost spilled onto me and my friend. Pork Belly Bao - Classic comfort pork bun that has all the right textures from the soft pillowy bun to the melt in your mouth pork belly to the crisp pickles to the crunchy crumble of peanut. Marinated Cucumbers - Intriguing season of cucumber that offers a flavorfully spiced palette. However, I found some of the dish to be bitter as if the chili crunch was burned when made. Wagyu Ikura Rice Bowl - Their special rice bowl that has roasted beef topped with ikura. I particularly like the horseradish mayo it came with to give the beef a creamy balance with the rice. However, I found the beef to be unevenly cooked w.r.t. the bowl and the ikura to be disproportionate to the beef.

I googled most of the restaurants in Chinatown and it looked like my high school GPA (not even a 4.0) so this place coming directly from the mouth of my pharmacist. Great broth, meat quality is superb, noodles were okay. Chili oil 8/10. Small bistro style, so prepare to share a table.

It's a tiny spot with just two communal tables inside (seating about six each) and a few outdoor tables. Definitely not the place for a long, lingering dinner -- this is quick, tasty, and casual dining. The noodles are made fresh on-site, and you can actually watch them being pulled, which is really fun to see. I ordered the chicken and peanut noodle soup -- it was flavorful, comforting, and hit the spot. The staff was friendly, though you can tell they like to keep things moving since there's usually a line out the door (and sometimes down the street!). If you're in the area and want something fresh, fast, and different from the usual London fare, this place is absolutely worth a stop.

The service is also top notch so take advantage of their wine knowledge. Their cocktails are pretty good as well. The food is more hit or miss. The steamed egg custard reminded me of what my mother would make for dinner but with a more elegant take. The cuttlefish toast was fun and I liked the use of black ink and the side of roe. The seasonal greens were also perfectly cooked. I felt our other dishes didn't quite meet the mark. The chilled clams had too much granita on them and lacked the saltiness expected from the shellfish. The XO scallops had too much tartness which oddly overwhelmed the XO sauce. The mushroom rice was a disappointment. The salted duck egg had zero flavour and the whole dish just fell flat. So while we had a good visit, I would come more for atmosphere than food. The food wasn't consistent and given the hype, a bit of a disappointment.

This was a fun experience as it was more of a street food vibe. the chicken was served in pouches with a kabob stick to enjoy it with. It was very hot and fresh out of the fryer.

The Taiwanese almost had somewhat of a cinnamony flavor to it. We would definitely come again on future visits! The service was very quick and staff was nice!
