Chinese | West London
Fine Chinese dining with a fabulous view over Kensington Palace Gardens. You can't knock the attention to detail - Beijing Duck ovens and woks able to withstand very high temperatures were made in Singapore and brought over to ensure authenticity, which seems to have worked.

"Min Jiang is a welcome addition to the scene: an upmarket, traditional Chinese delivering better food than China Tang... and able to hold its head up among the Hakkasans and Hunans." READ REVIEW
