description This article examines curriculum issues in the relationship between language, culture and learning. It focuses on approaches used in teaching food and beverage management subjects to students taking a Higher Diploma in Hotel Management at Hong Kong Polytechnic University; and whether language and culture cause learning difficulties for Chinese students studying Western management techniques in a quasi-Western learning environment. In Hong Kong a majority of Cantonese speaking Chinese students have to learn in English, their second language, from a team of multicultural academics, for whom English may also be a second language. Findings confirmed that language was one cause affecting students' learning, and a strong link was established to support the assumption that culture also influenced learning.
