Munch of the Week
Han Restaurant
“My local in Poplar, it’s a gem for Sichuan food and my go-to when I’m craving something spicy. They do a fantastic spicy crayfish; the lamb skewers are my favourite in London and they also have a smaller specials menu which is written in Chinese (it also contains pictures).” - Dumpling Shack
This spot was recommended by John and Yee Li, founders of Dumpling Shack in their guide to Sichuan restaurants in London.
Location: Poplar
