Ken Lo's Memories of China

Serving the well-heeled of Belgravia for some 30 years, Ken Lo's is a smart, upmarket restaurant with a loyal following. Chinese fabrics and red lanterns combine in a room divided by sandalwood screens, looked over by a slick service team. Authentic regional Chinese cooking is the order of the day, with lots of classic dishes featured in a range of set menus and on the mighty à la carte. You might start with three-spiced squid, siu mai dumplings or red oil-poached chicken dumplings, following on with a soup (Shanghai fish and crabmeat, perhaps). Next up, Peking quick-fried lamb with spring onion, Cantonese beef in black bean sauce, or a clay pot dish such as aubergine with minced prawns.
