Why we do it: Our menu is a reflection of our diverse restaurant family. It focuses mainly on Cantonese and other Chinese regional recipes and flavours but also draws inspiration from other East and South-East Asian cuisines, combining traditional techniques, family recipes and fond food memories with new ideas contributed by our teams. Each restaurant has its own style and atmosphere but we work to promote consistency and unity across both restaurants and all teams. We are committed to being an inclusive, positive work environment, with a diverse mix of gender, backgrounds and nationalities at all levels across the company.
