The Fast Show

Cha Cha Moon Restaurant Opens

Some like it slow, but you? You like it fast. And easy.

Without remorse.

Thankfully, you no longer have to feel guilty about eating fast food: Alan Yau, the man behind Hakkasan, Yauatcha and Sakenohana, has a new venture that’s all about speed.

Opening today is Cha Cha Moon, a walk-in Chinese noodle bar with open-plan kitchen and communal seating similar to Wagamama and Busabai Eathai (also part of Yau’s empire). On the menu: crispy duck lo mein, char sui ja jain udon soup or Peking-style noodle soup — all of which appear in a flash.

Yau plans to open a second outlet in Whiteleys shopping center later this year. But because you’re an impatient so-and-so, you’ll want to check out the flagship first.

So do it.

Fast.

Cha Cha Moon, 15-21 Ganton Street, W1F 9BN (020 7297 9800).
