- Dumplings' Legend reopens for business delivering xiao long bao and more
Well now, this is welcome news. Given how much Chinatown suffered in a drop off in trade the weeks before lockdown, any signs of revival there are doubly appreciated.
So we're delighted to reveal that one of our favourite hangouts in London, Dumplings' Legend, is back up and running.
The restaurant announced yesterday that it had moved to delivery, with "Stir-fry and Xiao long Bao and our

- Rounding up the best places for food delivery and takeaways in London

- Hackney now has a roving pub service serving freshly poured pints
Despite the Prime Minister talking about a potential July opening for some hospitality businesses, most people suspect that pubs - particularly those without big beer gardens - will be among the last places to emerge from lockdown. That's a long time to wait for a pint. Which is why East London's Forest Road Brewing Company has come up with an idea.
Their mobile pub will bring you a freshly poured pint direct to your door. Pint
