Located in Norfolk in the UK, we offer authentic Chinese cultural experience for schools, charity and private organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kwai and Serena have been serving delicious traditional dishes from the Far East for the past 30 years.  During this time, they have also supported local organisations and schools to provide educational services in a range of Chinese cultural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Request for this type of service increased, word spread and encouraging feedback led to Kwai and Serena shifting direction.  They decided to devote more time and effort in this new area and provide more opportunities to experience Chinese Cooking, Languages and Celebrations to the whole community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do offer these experiences?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

China has a long history stretching back over 4000 years. With so many fascinating aspects to explore and currently being the most populous country in the world, it\u2019s hard to think that the country and its country remain relatively inaccessible to the vast majority of westerners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

China has become the world\u2019s fastest-growing major economy. As of 2012, it is the world\u2019s second-largest economy, after the United States and with high profile events such as the Beijing Olympics in 2008, there has been increasing interest on how Chinese people live their everyday lives in Asia and the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We provide a range of products and services giving the audience an insight into Chinese culture including its history, geography, religion, art, fashion trends, sports, celebrations and cuisines.  Our objective is to be the junction where East meets West and hope to bridge the gap between the cultural differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
