Chelsea Malaysian whose menu mixes and matches Chinese dishes and other Asian inspirations. It’s survived ten years on a site (off the King’s Road) that was previously something of a restaurant graveyard, due to its straightforward if not earth-shattering virtues: “friendly service, good food, nice interior”.

“Really interesting Malay/Chinese combo” cuisine sets this smart, if low key, Chelsea venue apart, minimally decked out with painted black walls. Spun off from an original in Oxford, it is named after the Chinese admiral who explored South East Asia 600 years ago. “Staff are very friendly and helpful” in navigating the menu, with its collision of Chinese, Malay and Indian food cultures.

A “delicious range of Malay-Chinese food” on the menu at this smart Chelsea outfit is the reason why “a lot of Asians eat here”. This London offspring of a successful Oxford restaurant has taken on a tricky site in Sydney Street where others have failed to last the distance.

“Great but under-rated Malaysian/Singaporean food”, “executed with real style”, has earned consistently high marks for this sleek sibling of a successful Oxford venue, since it took over the Chelsea site of Brasserie Gustave (RIP) two years ago.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
