The Chinese went from being considered ‘inscrutable’ and ‘dangerous’ to opening Chinese restaurants in every town throughout the UK.
This talk explores how going for ‘a Chinese’ helped change perceptions of the Chinese since their arrival in the 1800s.
Eclectic Tours is run by Lisa Lua.
This event is for adults, teenagers and children.
Every child and every adult requires a ticket.
