Chinese New Year at Royal China Restaurants

31 January 2014 marks the start of the Year of the Horse. To celebrate the occasion, Royal China Restaurants across London will give each table a special red envelope, with one envelope within each restaurant revealing a special gift.

Each “lei see”, as they are pronounced in Cantonese, will offer a fortune message; while the lucky recipients will receive a voucher for a complimentary meal up to the value of £100.

Red envelopes are usually presented at social events such as weddings and the Lunar New Year. The red colour of the envelope symbolises good luck and is said to ward off evil spirits.

The Royal China Group consists of six of London’s most authentic and prestigious Chinese restaurants, including the luxurious and critically-acclaimed Royal China Club. Based in prime areas of London, the restaurants are centrally located on Baker Street, as well as in Bayswater, Fulham, Harrow-on-the-Hill and Canary Wharf.

The Royal China restaurants offer traditional Hong Kong Chinese dishes, while the Royal China Club provides and exclusive experience combining European ingredients within the authentic Chinese cuisine.
The group is renowned for its Dim Sum, which is served daily from Noon until 5pm and includes favourites such as Steamed Seafood Dumplings with Spicy Sauce; and Pan-fried Fillet of Duck Breast Rolls.
