but unfortunately not a Michellin star. Koya on Frith Street East http://www.koya.co.uk/ has just been named in the Time Out Eating and Drinking Awards 2010 as runner up in the best new cheap eats section. For lunch last Thursday I chose Atsu Atsu which translates as hot noodles in hot broth, unlike Hiya Atsu which is cold noodles in hot broth. Lots of varieties to chose from but I went for pork miso. The large bowl of juicy fat worms, sorry noodles, was served instantly and swam in a delicious broth with the minced pork on top. At £8.50, it's not the cheapest lunch (despite the award) but it came with a complementary bottle of still water (take note Zilli Bar).
PS: for those of you who don't speak fluent Italian, Ugo's review of Zilli Green was 'In my opinion the food was good, in fact very good. Not very spicy but with a special taste. It seemed to be the food of the gods'. I recommend that you eat here'. Whilst Annie said 'Had a fantastic flavour. Very light and tasted good. The bread from Sardinia was crisp, the food seemed like a tower with the vegetables underneath. In short, excellent.'
