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:

Boulevard at The Orchid Hotel Mumbai is set to mark Father's Day with a special brunch that brings together India's vibrant street-food culture, royal culinary traditions and nostalgic childhood favourites. Designed as a celebration of family, flavours and shared memories, the brunch offers guests a chance to enjoy dishes inspired by different regions of India and around the world.
One of the highlights of the experience is a series of interactive live counters showcasing iconic street-food favourites. Guests can explore a lively Chaat Bazaar featuring Muradabadi Chaat from Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow's Chowk Ki Tikki, Gujarat's Dhokla Chaat, Mumbai's popular Pani Puri and Masala Bhutta. A dedicated Galouti Counter will also serve both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, including mushroom, rajma, soya and mutton varieties.
The culinary spread extends beyond Indian flavours with international street-food favourites such as Sushi from Japan, Tibetan-style momos and Middle Eastern Falafel Pita Shawarma, offering something for every palate.
Adding depth to the menu is a selection of royal and regional specialities, including Paya Shorba, Murgh Shammi Kebab, Mahi Tikka, Maa Ki Dal, Patiala Shahi Gosht, Murgh Tikka Biryani and Subz Dum Biryani. Drawing inspiration from the royal kitchens of Lucknow and Punjab, as well as the rich culinary traditions of Hyderabad, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, the brunch presents a diverse range of flavours under one roof.
To bring back childhood memories, dedicated counters will serve Malai Gola, Candy Floss and freshly popped Popcorn. These nostalgic treats are designed to recreate the joy of family outings, local fairs and weekend indulgences. Guests can round off the meal with a selection of artisanal pastries, traditional Indian desserts and other sweet delights.
The Father's Day brunch offers families an opportunity to celebrate together over a table filled with familiar flavours, treasured memories and dishes inspired by culinary traditions from across India and beyond.

Chocolate is finding a new place on the menu at Ironhill, and this time, it is not on a dessert plate. In collaboration with Smoor, the brewery has introduced a limited-edition cocktail menu that brings together artisanal chocolate and craft cocktail making in a unique way.
Designed to offer a different perspective on chocolate, the menu features three signature cocktails, each with its own distinct character and flavour profile. Rather than simply adding chocolate to a drink, the collection explores how the ingredient can create depth, balance and complexity in a cocktail glass.
The Silk Route delivers a smooth and rich experience, with deep chocolate notes that unfold gradually and leave a lasting impression. For those who enjoy contrasting flavours, the Salted Cacao combines cacao and salt to create a balanced drink where sweetness and savoury notes work together seamlessly. Meanwhile, the Tropical Ganache brings a lighter and more vibrant approach, blending bright fruit flavours with chocolate for a refreshing and unexpected combination.
What sets the menu apart is its thoughtful approach to flavour. Each cocktail presents a different interpretation of chocolate, showcasing how the ingredient can move beyond traditional desserts and become the centrepiece of a well-crafted drink.
Available for a limited time, the Ironhill x Smoor collaboration offers guests an opportunity to experience chocolate in a fresh and creative format. Whether enjoyed as a leisurely evening drink or as part of a dining experience, the menu aims to bring a new dimension to cocktail culture.
