Ah ha the healthy Noodle Bar. It took a long time coming but Wagamama has really gone up in the world the last few years. This place is certainly affordable, certainly healthy, certainly fast and certainly the best noodle bar of its kind so far in the LDN (and there is a few). At the height of his powers, this would have been the Chinese food destination of choice for Mr. Motivator. Although most places have started doing fresh fruit juices, Wagamama was up there with the pioneers.
It is more expensive than the less central Tai Won Men, but you won’t leave feeling short changed. Generally around 7 quid (£7) for one meal and a drink, but you are looking for that extra bit of quality at Wagamama. Plus someone has to take a royalty for their name.
The environment is what you’d expect from a fast-food Chinese type eatery, with rows of chairs that you slot into and then order your dish from the War and Peace length menu. So if your about, feeling a little peckish, and your stomach is like “Yo dude I want some Noodles”, head to the shop with the Wagamama sign outside.
