YORI (Wimbledon)

You'll find yourself on The Broadway in Wimbledon, surrounded by the usual high street suspects, but YORI punches well above what you'd expect from a neighbourhood spot. The room's unpretentious—no faffing about with design—just honest Korean food done right. Order the grilled meats and watch them sizzle at your table whilst an impressive array of banchan keeps arriving. The stews are proper warming, the kind you'd get in Seoul, and they're not mucking about with portions or flavour. It's the sort of place where locals queue at lunchtime and come back mid-week without making a fuss about it.
