The Orange Room

The Orange Room restaurant in London's Mile End has had a face lift. Once a quirky, unpolished gem of a restaurant, The Orange Room now boasts smart, bright decoration with new posters of Arabian views. The shisha pipe has been relocated outside, of course, but it puffs on. The Orange Room is exactly what you want - friendly, delicious, generous, with all-day service that's affordable even the day before payday. Signature Lebanese dishes include the massive list of fifty meze, lamb dishes, vegetarian choices and lovely mango lassi. Bring your own wine for a £2 corkage fee. In the cold-hearted city, The Orange Room is a haven.
