The Roof

The Roof bags the Topwin Center’s most coveted spot as well as the complex’s least original name, a fitting motif as you overlook the south side of Sanlitun among the area’s young elite. However, there’s no doubt that The Roof, with its horizon-dissecting waterways, umbrellas and turf, and waiters decked out in all-white, makes for a fine spot for a cocktail, a serene evening with a hookah, or even a bowl full of oysters. You get the idea.

Down a deserted alley, just at the point that doubt starts to creep, Susu welcomes you into her twinkling, ever-so-modish folds. A courtyard oasis whose designer dazzle bears the stamp of Apothecary and Modo, it makes a supremely assuring first impression. Run by former Stone Boat owners Amy Li and Jonathan Ansfield - who also opened Thai restaurant Tuk Tuk - Susu has two chefs from Saigon working the kitchen. Lunch sets feature pho, Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches and banh xeo crepes, while at dinner you've got caramelized claypot dishes, Vietnamese stews and "the fabled La Vong Fish."
