The Finer Details

2020-04-30T10:44:37+01:00

Chinese cuisine is undoubtedly more complex than it might seem. The finer foods require attention to subtle details that elevate the dining experience, by finding ways to keep the dishes delicious without compromising on the nutritional benefits. For instance, we don’t use any artificial food colouring. If you see a bright ochre, we will have used turmeric which not only provides that golden yellow which forms the aesthetic colour palette of a dish but has significant health benefits at the same time. Chef David Chang, our dim sum and pastry chef, has mastered his art by keeping things simple and organised [...]

Going Back to Basics

2020-04-30T10:44:38+01:00

The value for healthy, natural and unprocessed food to me, is one of the greater things to offer. It’s a struggle in today’s world as there are various factors that make it difficult to sustain. But therein lies the desire even more so, to see the success of bringing good food and nutrition to the community. Going against the current is a hard thing but is not an option when you feel passionately about something and you just have to do it. I also appreciate the needs from people with coeliac troubles, that they need to have the option for their [...]

Steamed Sea Delectable

2020-04-30T10:44:38+01:00

Steaming the sea bass and finishing it off with zesty ginger and spring onions keeps it true to it’s Cantonese style. These ingredients are there to reaffirm the delicate flavour of the fish. At Naturally Chinese, the sea bass is a popular dish on our menu all year round. What makes it worth the experience is the freshness of the fish. The chef has to make sure it is never over cooked as the soft fleshiness is key to its success. The sizzling hot fish that comes out of the steamer strewn with sticks of ginger and spring onions is best [...]
