The Best of British Takeaways S01E02 - Chinese

Episode two looks at our current favourite takeaway food - Chinese.

Three of the nation's award-winning Chinese takeaways are invited to take part in a contest in the heart of London's China Town. Each is passionate about their own style of cooking, but they all have very different ideas about what makes the best Chinese dishes: for one it's the classic recipes we are familiar with here in the UK, handed down through three generations; for another it's a fusion of styles from across Asia; and for the third it's traditional Chinese home-cooking using exotic ingredients.

Each believes their version of the takeaway is the best, but it's down to Tom and his expert judge, writer and chef Ching He-Huang, to decide a winner.
