Chinese Wok, India’s largest Chinese restaurant chain, has introduced a unique augmented reality (AR) experience across its outlets, transforming routine dining into an interactive and engaging journey. This latest innovation reinforces Chinese Wok’s position as a pioneer in combining technology with its signature Desi-Chinese cuisine.
At participating outlets, customers can scan a QR code placed on tables, counters, takeaway, or delivery bags to unlock the AR feature. A lively CGI Chinese Wok chef then appears on their screens, performing dynamic stunts—flipping woks, tossing noodles, and presenting the brand’s popular dishes, creating a playful and memorable encounter.
Aayush Madhusudan Agrawal, Founder and Director of Lenexis Foodworks, shared, “At Chinese Wok, we constantly push the boundaries of innovation while reflecting our youthful and vibrant brand identity. This immersive initiative redefines how our customers interact with us, blending fun with functionality. It resonates well with today’s digitally savvy audience and enriches every dining occasion.”
Adding to the excitement, customers who share their AR moments on Instagram Stories while tagging @chinesewokin stand a chance to receive exclusive gift vouchers, making the dining journey even more rewarding.
Chinese Wok, part of Lenexis Foodworks, has built a strong footprint with over 225 outlets across 35+ cities and continues to delight customers with bold Desi-Chinese flavours and a diverse menu. As part of its expansion strategy, the brand plans to open 25+ new outlets in East India over the next year, contributing to its vision of launching 100 additional restaurants across 20 cities by FY25.
Leveraging influencer marketing, Chinese Wok aims to amplify the reach of this AR campaign, engaging audiences and creating a digital buzz.Here’s the links to witness the influencer collaborations:
