Canton (Restaurant)

“Canton used to be the equavalent of a chinese "greasy spoon" and was a great place to eat!!! Tables were long and shared.... some of the simpler cantonese dishes were prepared in the window kitchen, and they had a dim sum chef who started after midnight so fresh dimsum could be eaten in the small hours. The restaurant was open 24/7, and was used by all sorts of interesting characters from the theatres nearby and the casinos of London. They were not licensed when I used to frequent it, but if you became a friend of the manager, you could get hot rice wine in a chinese tea pot :-) I am sure they changed it all, putting proper tables in, and fancy lights/wallpaper but it may be worth trying this one time gem of an eaterie. Peter, if you are still in restaurant management, they were great times and may the sun always shine on you :-)”
