It is probably not as big as the one in San Fransisco, but it is a definitive place to get an authentic Chinese meal, sometimes cheaper than other place, though do not let yourself tempted with the allure of 'eat as much as you like' for £5 marketing ploy! There are other places where you can do this 'safely' but not here, here you might just get stomach ache if you are lucky. But the normal restaurants are pretty good, go for those ones instead. Apart from culinary delight, China Town also is one of the only way to get oriental ingredients, they have a few mini markets over there. During the Chines New Year they also hold some street party and celebration including the Dragon Dance. If you are planning to go there, give me a buzz, I let you know which one to go :)

    London's Chinatown really shocked me. It was really crowded. Every restaurant was full of seats, so that tourists from other places could hardly judge the good or bad of the restaurant through passenger traffic! At least 50 people were lined up at the door of Haidilao Hot Pot. I don't know what time to eat it! We found a Cantonese restaurant, the taste of the dishes is not worse than the domestic!

    Walking into London Chinatown in the view of the street, passing through the archway with the words "Chinatown of London", you can see that the streets are lined with shops marked in Chinese, and most of them are restaurants. It fully embodies the ancient motto of the Chinese nation "Food is the Heaven for the People". There seems to be nothing special about walking around the street, but there are more familiar Chinese in the shops. Walk into a small supermarket in Chinatown, where many of the food comes from China. Most of the purchases in this supermarket are made by young Chinese students. Perhaps there are only the ingredients familiar to their taste buds. We also went into a steamed bun shop in Chinatown and bought two handmade bags at a unit price of 1.7 pounds, equivalent to about 15 yuan. It's expensive to say.

    Located in the heart of London, Chinatown is one of the largest Chinese communities in Europe, and consists of many Chinese and Southeast Asian restaurants, supermarkets and shops. This is a good place for tourists to taste Chinese food and experience Oriental culture. Every year, there will be a grand celebration in the Lunar New Year, attracting a large number of tourists to come and participate.
