By jove London! We've got a brand new pop-up ramen bar and it's called Yoisha! (meaning hooray in Japanese). How lovely.

If like us, you go gaga for anything Wes Anderson-themed, you'll be pleased to know that until April 5 you can delve into the world of the infamous director at an exhibition/ramen bar mash up in Central London.

For those of you who don't know, Anderson has a new film out called Isle of Dogs. It's basically a dystopian animation odyssey set in Japan featuring a young lad in search of his missing dog (we're already crying).

Predominantly filmed in the East End, it's the first time the Great British public will be able to set their eyes on Anderson's masterworks up close and personal. You'll be able to persuse 17 original setpieces, whilst a specially-curated soundtrack will bash out Alexandre Desplat's score. Our idea of heaven, really.

The ramen bar is part of a special round-up of promos, which shows off all the cool sets and stop motion puppets used in the flick.

Head chef Akira Shimizu of Soho's Engawa will be dishing out all sorts of chicken and veg options. And the best part is that admission to the exhibition is absolutely free. (The ramen, sadly, is not.)
