CURRENCY CONVERTER

London's noodle dives don't get much better than this. Before its decline, Ken Lo's restaurant, Memories of China, was the best Chinese dining in London. Ken's grandfather was the Chinese ambassador to the Court of St. James, and the late Ken Lo went on to make a reputation as a cookbook author. Jenny Lo is Ken's daughter, and her father taught her many of his culinary secrets. Belgravia matrons and young professionals come here for perfectly prepared, reasonably priced fare. Ken Lo cookbooks contribute to the dining room decor of black refectory tables set with paper napkins and chopsticks. Opt for such fare as a vermicelli-rice noodle dish (a large plate of noodles topped with grilled chicken breast and Chinese mushrooms) or white noodles with minced pork. Rounding out the menu are stuffed Peking dumplings, chile-garnished spicy prawns, and wonton soup with dumplings that glide into your mouth. The black bean-seafood noodle dish is a delight, as is the chile beef soup.
