Food Scene

Bashan is a Hunan Chinese restaurant: Moderately to cheap meals. Spicy stir fries and steamed fish, more interesting spicy dishes than 'Western style' Sechuan meals.

Fun atmosphere, especially if you sit at the bar and talk with the friendly staff. Had a great time there Feb '14 eating several starters with wines recommended by Margot, bar staff on duty.

Sometimes overshadowed by its larger neighbour, the National Gallery, this is a great one to drop into, late nights Thur and Fri with free music. Special exhibitions. Great rooftop restaurant!
