Damien was known for saying that he 'didn't have time for cancer', he was never afraid of trying new things or venturing into new adventures and he was always up for a challenge. His work ethic and dedication to his businesses was unrivalled and in the past twelve months, when most of us have stayed in and binged watched Netflix, Damien was busy writing The Noodle Cookbook!

Before 2020 came to a close, we at Mr Lee’s had to address a surplus of stock which was dedicated to the travel sector as the coronavirus pandemic had forced airlines to put a halt to their activity. All this got us thinking about the amount of food that goes to waste every year around the world. Paying more attention to our food consumption habits is extremely important and that’s why we at Mr Lee’s would like to offer some practical tips which can help us all change our habits around food.

This week at Mr Lee’s we have been examining our competitors and the difference between our products. Our range of foods are core to everything we do and reviewing the market reminds us of the reasons why we decided to develop a premium noodle.

Chinese New Year, also known as Lunar New Year or Spring Festival, is China's most important festival, and this Friday 12th February marks the beginning of the Year of the Ox. The Ox is the second animal of the Chinese zodiac, and signifies the hard work, positivity and honesty that we will all be channelling in the coming 12 months according to astrologers.

In the weeks since our founder Damien very sadly passed away, we have been overwhelmed with the outpouring of love, support and tributes to Damien and stories of inspiration that have come from all corners. We will continue to be inspired by Damien and his legacy which lives on strongly in the company he founded.

We are proud to announce the launch of The Noodle Cookbook which is part of the incredible legacy Damien has left Mr Lee's to release. Damien’s passions ran deep and wide, he was never afraid of trying new things and he recently decided to venture into the world of food writers with The Noodle Cookbook, which features 101 wholesome and flavoursome noodle recipes for quick and healthy eating.

Welcome to the first post of our new blog! With Veganuary coming to an end, many of you may have recently switched to plant-based eating and some of you may be considering fully adopting this lifestyle. Either way, the idea of removing all animal products from your diet may feel a bit overwhelming and you may like some help in the process.

There’s no doubt about it, 2020 has been a year like no other. Amid all the difficulties it has presented, we at Mr Lee’s have accomplished quite a lot and we would like to reflect on some of the milestones we’ve reached as well as give you a look into what is coming this 2021.

At Mr Lee’s we’ve worked hard to roll with the punches during these tricky times for everyone.  We’re fortunate to have a great team who have adapted quickly to working from home, and a nutritious ambient product which many people are now turning to as their new cupboard staple. 

All this time indoors has got the Mr Lee's team feeling crafty! We've been thinking about all the ways you can have a bit of fun with recycling and re-using your Mr Lee's cup this Easter.
