Advantages: Only place I know in London to have a food court like this. Disadvantages: The whole place needs a bit of buzz
My interest in Oriental City was sparked when I saw Ching He-Huang(Of Ching's kitchen) recommending it on T.V. recently.
Having lived in South East Asia for a long time, I'm very familiar with the food courts in South East Asia and it's one of the things I miss most now. I've been craving proper Asian Food like Chicken Rice, Mee Siam and Laksa for ages now, so I couldn't wait to go.
It was relatively easy to get there. We stopped at Colindale ...

Advantages: Great selection of different oriental food mostly delicious, Reasonable prices, Rowdy Atmosphere Disadvantages: Not really a shopping centre, Rowdy Atmosphere

Advantages: Variety, activity, and uniqueness Disadvantages: Nothing fancy, but that's not why you go here!
...are a furniture store, an oriental (mainly japanese) plate/cup/mug/bowl store, and some other random asian shops. The plate store is very reasonable and has a lot of handmade and unique items in it.
The food court is as I said the main thing you'd come here for most likely. Available are:
Thai, Korean, Japanese (including sushi), Chinese (several regional varieties), Malaysian, Vietnamese, and some Indian, Pakistani, and Caribbean foods as well.
