We all find comfort in different places. A few months ago I received an email from a reader who had been tending to his ailing dad at Northwick Park Hospital in Harrow, where I grew up. One evening, having spent the day bedside, he needed dinner, and found his way to Panda’s Kitchen, a Sichuan restaurant down on that stretch of Harrow’s Station Road that has long been a little Chinatown, in among the Gujarati cafés and Middle Eastern grill houses. He clearly found something diverting amid the tension and emotional chaos of parenting his parent.
