Last year we held a rather delightful lunch to celebrate the start of the Year of the Tiger. The venue was a Chinese Restaurant in Winchcombe St, Cheltenham, which I then described thus: Pretty much everyone who’s lived in HK had a favourite small Chinese restaurant which was a block or so off a main road, neither posh (nor expensive) but with really pleasant staff, reliably delicious and relatively authentic food - a good place both to drop into after a long day and to take visitors. Well, an approximation to that favourite exists in Cheltenham.
