Take a detour on your way to the O2 and drop into Peninsula Chinese Restaurant. Like the bands that play nearby Peninsula has devote fans – many of them Chinese – ensuring this restaurant is full night after night. This bright, buzzy eaterie serves scrummily authentic Cantonese food from a menu as extensive as any in Chinatown. Everything arrives in generous, eat-me-now portions, from grilled dumpling starters to a crispy aromatic Szechuan style duck served whole with thin pancakes, salad and a sweet plum sauce. Lots of lobster and crab dishes, as well as beancurd and vegetable choices for non-meat eaters. Well worth a trip to Greenwich… And it won't break the bank.
