About Us
We are a family run Chinese restaurant, passed down for generations, situated in the heart of Eastleigh.
Our restaurant specializes in Peking cuisine, traditionally the cooking of the Imperial Chinese capital in the north. As well as being residence of the Emperor and the country’s cultural centre, Peking came to attract the greatest chefs and to assimilate the best of the regional specialties. Centuries later, it is still the gourmet capital of China.
The middle kingdom, to give China its ancient name, has many hidden treasures. Some has been forbidden to the world, others concealed in its rich soil, yet more buried in its soul. Yet its greatest treasures is its giving freely to all who ask by sharing the secrets of its culinary arts. The vastness of the middle kingdom has brought together into one treasure chest of cuisines the traditions of many peoples whose style of eating is renowned for its harmony and togetherness.
To enjoy the many dishes of China to the full it is essential to consider them as part of a whole, to be enjoyed by others and to form a pattern of colours, textures and, most important, flavours.
A meal is a creation as much through the tastes and the desires of those at the table as it is a result of the expertise of the chef to eat in the Chinese style is a lesson in conviviality and cordiality. Dishes are there to be shared and to add to the feeling of community and well-being of all.
