China City Russell Square is an established Chinese restaurant at 50 Woburn Place, close to Russell Square and Euston. The extensive menu draws particularly on Cantonese cooking while also exploring dishes associated with Shanghai, Beijing and other regional traditions, making the dining room well suited to family meals and larger groups.
Dim sum includes steamed and fried dumplings, buns and mixed platters designed for sharing. Spring rolls, satay chicken, sesame prawns, lettuce wraps, ribs and chicken wings offer further ways to begin, while wonton, hot and sour and sweetcorn soups provide a warming introduction before the main dishes arrive.
Imperial Peking duck and crispy aromatic duck are served with pancakes, cucumber, spring onions and hoisin sauce. Cantonese roast duck joins a broad seafood selection that can include prawns, scallops, squid, sea bass and seasonal lobster, prepared through steaming, stir frying and sauces built around ginger, chilli or black beans.
Beef, chicken, pork and vegetables appear in sweet and sour, chilli, cashew and black bean preparations, supported by fried rice and noodle dishes. Set menus and banquets assemble several courses for the table, while vegetarian combinations and simple desserts make it easier to shape a complete meal for mixed preferences.
