Application relates to part ground and first floor of the Premises.
The Applicant sought the sale by retail of alcohol both
‘off’ and ‘on’ sales from 10:00hrs to
00:00hrs Monday to Saturday and 12:00hrs to 23:30hrs on
Sundays.Late night

in the West End Cumulative Impact Area.
Mr Thomas, the Applicant’s Legal
Representative, advised that the Applicant, Shaftesbury Chinatown
PLC was an established company which had over 300 Licensed Premises
in their property portfolio and that the majority of these were
restaurants. The Sub-Committee was advised that Shaftesbury Chinatown PLC had a reputation
of having a strict lease and set of policies on how their premises
should be managed and these were rigorously enforced. Mr Thomas
advised that a previous tenancy had been forfeited and this was due
to poor operational practices of the tenant. The Sub-Committee was
reminded that Chinatown was in an area that had numerous theatres
and was a designated spot for post theatre diners. The
Sub-Committee was reminded that its locality was ‘restaurant
led’ in nature and was unlike Soho which was ‘drink
led’.
Mr Andy Hing,
Applicant, Shaftesbury
Chinatown PLC, advised that the Premises were frequented by an
international clientele. The
Sub-Committee was advised that cuisines in the Asian Continent had
evolved and preferences of the younger international clientele had
altered, and it was aimed to reflect these market changes. Mr Hing

The Sub-Committee had before it two
applications for a new premises licence by Shaftesbury Chinatown
