Pimlico​のベスト東南アジア料理レストラン

Today was my dad's 85th birthday, and one guest had travelled from Swansea just to join us for lunch. Having tried three times previously to dine here and always being turned away at 12pm, I was delighted that they had introduced a booking system. We ordered 2 small plates and 4 main meals which was too much for us. But we really enjoyed eating everything and it was almost like being back in Singapore. My parents didn't have anything negative to say. We have Nasi Lemak in other places so this seemed slightly above average. But the Char Kway Teo and Bak Chor Mee were much better than other places and we've not found anywhere else that has Bak Chor Mee which is one of my dad's favourites. The wonton mee was probably the least popular but our English friend seemed to really enjoy it so it was a success too. The waitress that served us was very friendly and very obliging taking photos a few times. I believe the manager also came over to speak to my parents and they joked saying he should open the door early when it's cold outside, even if they don't actually start serving so maybe we'll see that in December as we have a good friend arriving from Singapore to spend December in London and he is aware of this restaurant via The Straits Times.

Had cravings of a good Nasi Lemak, and was not disappointed. Quite flavourful and enjoyable. The portions were generous. I also ordered the crispy tofu, but this one was on the bland side. Luckily, I was able to request some dipping sauce that improved it. The main waiter had an stern look, but he was really paying attending to detail, and the service was second to none.

As ever excellent but everything felt a little perfunctory. Last time we booked the chef’s table we were made to feel special. This time, not so much
