CHAI WU

Chai Wu is perched like a regal peacock on the fifth floor of Harrods, serving pan-Asian dishes that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance. With a perfect hygiene rating and a menu that includes standout dishes like crispy tempura shrimp sushi and lobster crispy noodles, it’s a high-end escape from the shopping madness below. Reviewers rave about the Wagyu pastry and dim sum as if they’ve just found the Holy Grail of food. Service is warm and attentive, so you can focus on the good stuff without worrying about being treated like a mere shopper.

But hold your horses—some have suggested that it’s not exactly the most exciting place, given the ambiance is elegant but could be described as a bit vanilla. Still, if you’re after a luxury lunch that’ll make you feel slightly posh, this is your spot. Just be prepared for prices that reflect that luxury, and maybe check if your wallet is up for the task. 😐
