Chinese Food Festival

Chinese Food Festival 2019

The Chinese Food Festival is back for a fifth year this August.

And boy, is there a lot to celebrate.

Taking over Potters Fields park for the weekend, overlooking the river, there’ll be a glut of food stands from some of the best Asian restaurants and street food vendors in the city. So far, the line-up’s set to include:

• Master Wei, the famously popular and long-awaited Bloomsbury noodle spot from chef Wei Guirong;
• Taiwanese treats from Spitalfields Market vendors Wheelcake Island;
• Numbingly spicy Szechuan noodles from rising residency stars, Liu Xiaomian;
• Comfort food from the streets of Taiwan with Jiaba;
• The widely acclaimed Mei Ume, restaurant at London’s Four Seasons Hotel;
• Traditional dumplings crossed with Western fillings by Soho’s Ugly Dumpling; and
• Fruit and bubble tea stalls, plus baijiu and rice wine bars.

Besides all that, you’ll also find the Lee Kum Kee kitchen, where you can learn to make a couple of classic Chinese dishes; and the Han Culture centre, which will be hosting tea tastings, traditional Hanfu clothing hire, and music and dance performances throughout the day.

NOTE: The Chinese Food Festival will be taking place on 30th August – 1st September. You can find out more on their website HERE.
