As millions of people around the world prepare for the Lunar New Year, we thought we’d join the celebrations.
The Year of the Dragon starts tomorrow (Saturday) and we don’t need to tell you, nothing quite hits the spot like a delicious Chinese meal with your bezzies.
But which Bedford restaurant is the best? Fear not, as those helpful peeps at TripAdvisor have done all the hard wok (geddit?), basing their top 10 on user reviews.
So be a smart cookie and kick off this 15-day spring (roll) festival in style ...
