Exeter's Chinese Community

Community Researchers, Gordon Chan and Sasiporn Phongploenpis, have researched the city's Chinese Minority and its Contribution to Diversity in Exeter; Gordon and Sasi have worked together to collate facts and figures, hidden historical gems and individual testimonies in a way that is personal and educational.
In 1958 Sam Fat Law and his partners opened the first Chinese restaurant the "Rice Bowl" in Exeter.
