A CHINESE celebration offered a taste of the oriental in the build up to Christmas.

The Faith, Hope and Love Fellowship Chinese Service Centre organised its second annual festive celebration with traditional Christmas songs as well as Chinese opera singing and dance.

The 125 visitors to Petts Wood Methodist Church in Lakeswood Road on Wednesday (December 17) also enjoyed games, a raffle and a free Chinese lunch.

The centre’s secretary Kit Ling Leung said: “It's great to promote our culture in Bromley and everyone seemed to have a good time and especially enjoyed the food.

“It's important to live in harmony and we have been warmly welcomed in the area.”
