Chung Ying Group
What it offers the West Midlands?
Chung Ying Cantonese was the first Chinese restaurant in what is now known as Birmingham’s Chinatown. Originally a stand-alone venue, Chung Ying’s investment in the city has seen the business expand significantly, with three different, successful restaurants now operating in the city centre. Chung Ying Group now employs around 100 staff – from front of house staff to expert chefs.
Chung Ying Cantonese and Chung Ying Garden are both located in the heart of the city’s Chinese Quarter, surrounded by a cluster of Far-Eastern themed supermarkets, restaurants and bars, and the Arcadian – known for offering the largest dim sum selection in the UK, with over 100 choices. Chung Ying Central can be found in the city’s business district, a stone’s throw from Birmingham New Street Station and the city’s retail and cultural centre.
