Now closed; was a Chinese restaurant near [[Locale Leicester Square|Leicester Square]], in [[Locale Chinatown|Chinatown]]. As of April 2016 the windows are whitewashed over, but there's no indication of why it closed.
Chinese restaurant near Leicester Square/Chinatown. Wide menu, and decent value for money (portions are quite large). The salt and pepper tofu is particularly good, as is the sea-spiced aubergine; I gather the meat dishes are good as well. They'll happily cook off-menu dishes for you on request. Most veggie dishes are around £5.

The bubble tea (fruit tea with semolina pearls in) is well worth trying, although it is quite odd! Wine, beer, green tea, and various soft drinks also available.
