Pan Pan Restaurant

Head down to St Clement's and you'll find Pan Pan doing what it does brilliantly: turning out proper Asian food without pretension. The kitchen takes inspiration across the continent—Thailand, China, Vietnam, Malaysia—and does each cuisine justice rather than muddling them together. You'll squeeze in alongside locals who've made this their regular, and that's the whole point. It's the kind of place that feels lived-in, where the noise bounces off the walls and you're genuinely pleased when a table frees up.
