A Chinese food cart selling crepes and more could start trading outside Kingston Museum permanently.

The Golden Jian, a local Chinese takeaway which started trading via food cart outside the museum back in November 2025, has submitted a licensing application to start trading permanently.

If its application is approved, The Golden Jian hopes to trade from 9am - 7pm Thursday through Tuesday, excluding 16 December 2026 - 17 February 2027 due to cold weather.

The cart operates next to Fairfield Road adjacent to Kingston Library and Kingston Museum.
