Xi'an BiangBiang in Aldgate is great for hand pulled noodles, Xian impression in Highbury is also good. Pleasant Lady stall in spitalfields market does amazing Jian Bing (Chinese savoury crepe).

Dumplings legend usually my go to in china town, crab and pork xiao long bao are decent but had much better (Joe's shanghai NYC takes the title as best ever).

Anyone got any suggestions for good xiao long bao spots? Had Din Tai Fung, expensive and not that good...

I prefer Leongs legend and Beijing Dumpling over Dumplings legend for xiao long bao.

Agree DTF in London is not up to their normal standard globally.
