Good Business Ethics

2020-04-30T10:54:53+01:00

There’s something to be said for a good code of business conduct and ethics. A well known Chinese saying “a fox will always show its tail” brings to mind a clarity that helps look farther than the immediate picture in any line of business. The past few weeks have presented its set of hoops to overcome along with the good fortune that Naturally Chinese has enjoyed just the same. Fantastic reviews on trip advisor to a few unexpected challenges that are inevitable sometimes. In the midst of doubts and questions from fellow competitors, we still strive to serve our customers and [...]

Summer Fun

2020-04-30T10:54:53+01:00

What’s summer without the fun? No matter what the situation, rain or sunshine, there’s always a good excuse to enjoy summer. Great food, wine, celebrating simple pleasures with friends and family. The irony is that England is one of the best places to be during summer so there really isn't the need to travel anywhere else. We at Naturally Chinese are looking forward to an exciting couple of months giving out special offers for you to avail of. For all the football fans intently glued to the matches, gather with your friends and enjoy a delicious take out meal from Naturally [...]

Father’s Day Weekend

2020-04-30T10:54:53+01:00

“Son’s first hero, daughter’s first love”. I think many of us could agree with this statement. I might be going out on a limb by saying that I’ve often felt that Father’s Day tends to get overlooked as compared to Mother’s Day. But that is my feeling anyway. And I wonder why should it be any different? Shouldn’t fathers receive the same adoration, love and appreciation as the mothers? Perhaps if we celebrated our dads more often, they’d show up for us more? The dated role of father figure is restructuring radically with dads being more involved and active in their [...]

Looking Towards Summer

2020-04-30T10:54:54+01:00

It's been a busy week but productive and fruitful all the same with fantastic news to report. I had a message from Trip Advisor a few days ago telling me that Naturally Chinese had won the 2014 Certificate Of Excellence acknowledging us for our consistent top ratings from Trip Advisor travellers. I am really touched by the responses that I have received about the restaurant and our service. It's never short of a challenge to keep the food and service to the highest standards expected but I am so thankful for a team that works hard to do their best. When [...]

Tea Tasting Affair

2020-04-30T10:54:54+01:00

Hints of jasmine, honey, magnolia, orange blossom and ginger fill the air as I sample some of the teas I am to select for the Tea Tasting event this Sunday, 18th May. It’s the last day of the Surbiton Food Festival and what better way for us to close than on a ‘Chinese High Tea’ affair. The pairing of tea with food is a vital part of Chinese culture and gastronomy. It elevates the whole dining experience just like wine but only different.  There is a vast history behind the origins of teas and their individual processes and I will talk [...]

It's one long party continuing into next week. This Monday, the 12th of May, Naturally Chinese will be hosting a Dim Sum Cookery class as part of the events lined up during the Surbiton Food Festival. This class was brought back by popular demand and I thought it to be the perfect time to host during the festival. If you are curious to unravel the secret behind char shiu buns, then this class will show you how. Our top chef, Chiu will take you through this simple and sought after craft. Also enjoy a sampler dim sum before you get your [...]

A few last minute preparations to make before Saturday's Village Fete. This year, I hear there are going to be more people attending, so I want to be well stocked and ready.

There's a host of local artists and musicians to entertain all afternoon, various competitions and games to enter for all ages, your local restaurants serving some of your favourite treats to enjoy while you bask in the park, and much more.

The Art Of Dim Sum

2020-04-30T10:55:23+01:00

If I am ever in need of replenishment after a hectic day of work, I have yet to find something that can top the sheer afternoon delight of dim sum. I say afternoon as it is my favourite time to recharge with a cup of jasmine tea and very often a beautiful combination of sweet and savoury bites laid out for my eyes to enjoy before the belly. Suddenly all seems right with the world and I know that no matter what I need to get done, will be done after I enjoy an hour of dim sum. The tradition began [...]

Celebrating Our 2nd Anniversary

2020-04-30T10:55:23+01:00

April 6th marked two long years of graft, hard work and patience. Bringing together the components that have kept the business moving, has been a lesson in endurance and I am glad I decided to keep plodding on. I imagine that for any business, a big part of it is the journey and like life, is often about being able to stay afloat and much less about an end result. There has been a dynamic shift in the past few months that has been really promising for Naturally Chinese. I launched the blog that has been a good way to share [...]
