The food court in Westfield can be best described as hell, especially  
this close to Christmas. The outside eating is better, although there  
are occasional long queues in some of the places. Between Wahaca and  
Balans you can normally get a table without waiting.

It is also worth noting that Bamboo House on Wood Lane now does dim  
sum, and is easily the best Chinese restaurant for miles around. I'll  
give it eleven out of ten.

(The Shepherd's Bush area is a rather good place for foodies on a  
budget to visit once you look past the endless dodgy fast food joints  
littering the place.)
