To celebrate Chinese New Year, the Royal China restaurants will be offering guests the chance to experience one of the most powerful and entertaining traditions of the festivities – a live ‘Lion Dance’ which is thought to bring good luck.
As is traditional there will be two dancers under a beautiful lion costume, one acting as the head and the other as the body. Dancing to atmospheric music of drums, cymbals and gongs, the lion has a mirror on its head so that evil spirits will be frightened away by their own reflections.
The Lion Dance will take place at the following branches of Royal China. Early booking is advised to avoid disappointment.
