A new pan Asian restaurant bringing the flavours of the Orient to Beverley’s Flemingate centre will open its doors in early August.
Offering authentic Asian street food cooked in an open kitchen, Sumo Pan Asian is styled on the bustling kerbside food stalls of Hong Kong, Bangkok and Tokyo.
The new restaurant promises to bring the buzz of Bangkok to Beverley with a mouth-watering range of authentic and innovative dishes from China, Malaysia, Thailand and Japan.
Gary Chin, Director and Head Chef of Sumo Pan Asian, said the new restaurant aimed to capitalise on the explosion in popularity of street food.
He said: “We’re very excited to be opening soon and delighted with the fit-out. It captures exactly what I had in mind for the space, with counter seating set around an open kitchen so diners can see our chefs in action.
“We’re bringing the taste and experience of street food bars in the Far East to Beverley. People can come in for a quick bite or for a relaxing lunch or dinner.
“Our menu gives a modern twist to Oriental cooking and will offer something for everyone, using the freshest ingredients and locally-sourced produce.”

Sumo Pan Asian offers authentic street food.
Located on Chantry Lane, next to Subway at Flemingate, Sumo Pan Asian will create 15 new full and part-time jobs.
The fully-licensed restaurant will open from lunchtime to 10pm seven days a week and will offer a dine-in service initially, with take-out option to follow later.
Graham Tait, Centre Manager at Flemingate, said: “We’re really pleased Sumo Pan Asian is opening soon at Flemingate.
“It will bring something very different to the existing range of eateries in Beverley and I’m certain it will be a hit with both residents and visitors.
“We’re also pleased to welcome another local business to our line-up of independent outlets.”
