Chinatown Dubai Mall

Chinatowns across the world – from New York to London – have served as hubs of community, love and culture.

It’s certainly giving it a shot with a wave of new restaurants opening up, including Haidilao Hot Pot, Singaporean import Hawker Chan, and Ri Hua Xuan, the restaurant said to have invented the inimitable xiao long bao soup dumpling.
