The best Chinese restaurant in town for a wide selection of dishes. They don't do a large selection of dim sum but the ones they do in a set are yum!
My favourite dish has to be the shui zhu yu which is "boiled fish" this is a spicy dish and contains fish, vermicelli bean sprouts and I wish I knew what the flavourings were! I

The best french restaurant in Oxford in my opinion. They have a very good value lunch set menu around £15 and all the dishes are delicious! The desert is to die for as well! I believe it's opened by Raymond Blanc.

Drinks & Nightlife
Great pub which does a good selection of drinks but also serves great food! They have a very good value lunch menu with items to be had for under £10. I especially like their sweet potato fries. Also the pub is very close to the centre of town and is just by the river walk which is a beautifully scenic walk into town.

Shopping
Newly built and opened in December. Not quite finished yet and already have a large selection of shops including John Lewis, Primark, Next etc. The restaurants are many and varied and also there's a large Curzon cinema on the roof. They also have a creperie and a churros stall which I love!
The view from the top of the roof is also very good although rather cold in winter.
