When you go out for a meal, you probably have a regular haunt – a safe bet where you know what you’re going to order before you even look at the menu. But part of the student way of life is trying new things and one of the tastiest cuisines out there is Chinese.
Far away from the takeaway versions, restaurants are a better reflection on the country’s daily dining habits. Even if you’re a fussy eater, there will be something that you can try. Here are Nottingham’s top Cantonese and Chinese offerings:
Nottingham has two teams – the hugely successful Panthers (who won all 3 trophies in the EIHL this season) and the entertaining Lions (who won the NIHL last month). The sport is not as popular here as it is across the Atlantic Ocean but it has all the ingredients English fans admire – physicality, flair and atmosphere. There is usually at least one fight per game which always delights the audience, and plenty of goals to boot – games can change in a matter of minutes, so there is never a dull moment. The Panthers and Lions both play at the NIC arena at the weekends and it’s a much cheaper option than football. Tickets for home games cost £13 and £2.50 for students respectively.
