Tang Noodle Bar, Great Russell Street

P1040211

Everybody needs a secret little noodle bar in life – and if it can offer reasonably priced nosh from a convenient location (in addition to boasting delicious dishes) then all the better. So for Londoners still searching for their own noodle niche, I present: Tang on Great Russell Street just off Tottenham Court Road.

I really enjoyed my slurp through the Tang menu.

An ample and spicy Prawn Tang with glass noodles, tiger prawns, bean sprouts, bok choi, six-minute egg, fried shallots, and chilli oil in a prawn and pork broth (£10) certainly satisfied with deep homey flavour. Small dishes like fried soya milk chicken with homemade hot sauce (£5) and crispy black bean tofu in a white miso sauce (£4.50) more than did the trick for my greedy taste buds too. Bun with slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth short rib with cucumber, coriander and vinegar reduction (£4.50) was so delicious I wished I’d had room for another (not to mention sampling other items off the menu). I ‘settled’ for a couple of scoops of palate cleansing and very refreshing sugarcane and shiso sorbet (£3.50).

Service was speedy and personably. The dining space was Spartan but pleasant, perfect for casual dining.
