"You’ll instantly feel like part of the family who runs this minimalist Korean restaurant in Hackney. The siblings at Miga greet everyone warmly—whether it’s your first time or you’re a local returning with friends “to spread the word”—while their dad cooks in the open kitchen. Beef tartare with sesame oil and slivers of crunchy Korean pear is a revelation, sweet, tender short rib falls off the bone at a nudge, and meaty prawns come on a gochujang sauce we want to mainline. Our adoption papers are in the post." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
