Imperial City - London

  • Description:

    • In the undercroft of the Royal Exchange Building, this restaurant, with its sleek modern interior and exotic fish tanks, serves authentic Southeast Asian cuisine. High-quality food and a first-rate presentation keep a stream of diners flowing in. There are familiar starters such as Mandarin spareribs or razor clams with chile-laced black beans, but also unusual ones, such as crispy seaweed with walnuts. A whole or half Peking duck is served, as is a braised mixed seafood pot for two. Chilean sea bass with sea cucumber and star anise is a delight, as is wok-fried duck breast with cherries and wild ginger. Vegetarians will be delighted here, but so will meat eaters. The wok-fried venison with black pepper and snow peas is a winner, as is the beef with lemon grass. The typical rice and noodles dishes are also served, topped off by such desserts as a mango-and-toffee cheesecake.
