Hare and Tortoise

So it sounds like your local, but lordy is the Hare and Tortoise far more exotic than your common or garden British boozer: a modern, open-kitchen Oriental noodle bar in fact. Fancy somewhere fad-free, fast and friendly? Then chopsticks at the ready and dive into a delicious, nutritious variety of Japanese noodles, sushi, dumplings, maki, lo mein, chow mein and rice dishes - all served in nice big portions. Not weighed down by the air of snobbery that sometimes hangs around this kind of 'new cuisine' restaurant in London, the Hare and Tortoise offers a warm atmosphere with a down-to-earth décor style that befits the food. Beer drinkers might like to know that they have Kirin on draught. Healthy, cheap, open seven days week - the Hare and Tortoise is racing ahead as the first choice for food fans who appreciate a restaurant like this one in the heart of Putney.
