Festival Terrabce, Southbank Centre, Belvedere London, SE1 8XX
Ping Pong is one of the most popular dim sum restaurant chain with no less than 12 restaurants in London alone. I had to try one of these since I have really enjoyed dim sums in other restaurants like Yautcha or Hakkassan.
The place on Wednesday was busy on both floors. We waited no more than 30 mins to get a table of 4 and were enjoying some nice cocktails on the top floor. Seated at the table, you got a choice of plenty of dim sums to choose from. You just have to write down on a piece of paper how many of each dim sum you like to order. We picked about 20 dim sums, mostly all hot with a mix of pork, prawns, crab, chicken. The problem with dim sums is that some are generous, others are a just a joke. When they are all priced between 3 and 5£, in the end you can spend easily at least 20 pounds per person + drinks. I didn't find dim sums excellent and up to the price we paid. I was disappointed with some of the portions. And I found the place rather noisy and cold (we were by the single glaze windows).
