"Over the last 18 months, chef Eric Wan (ex-Dinner by Heston) has been popping up around town (and in Paris and Shanghai) with Lá Lốt. The modern Vietnamese concept is inspired by his Chinese-Vietnamese background and his mother's birthplace of Chợ Lớn in Saigon, and it's where he's been doing his twist on traditional ingredients and street food dishes. Now he's partnering with the team behind dan's in Dalston to open Tempo on Paradise Row in Bethnal Green."
"We're stoked to be joining the East London scene - it's inspiring to be surrounded by so many iconic spots. Tempo is about keeping things relaxed but never predictable. With bottles constantly rotating on the shelves and a menu that's always evolving, we want every visit to feel fresh. We take the food and wine seriously, but everything else is easygoing - a place to eat, drink, share, and genuinely have a good time."
