A Yorkshire fish and chip shop which is opening a restaurant in China said it could have more in the pipeline, amid surging interest from Asian diners.

Scotts Fish and Chips, based near York, is just months away from opening its first site in China but told the PA news agency it was already eyeing opportunities for two more restaurants following booming interest.

The restaurant gained notoriety earlier this year when it became popular with Chinese tourists after looking for new marketing opportunities.

The chip shop’s owner, Tony Webster, said popularity with Chinese diners has continued to surge after it started marketing itself to Chinese tour operators.
