Overview

Sydney fried chicken legends Butter are celebrating the Year of the Tiger with a series of limited-time menu and merch items at their Sydney stores and a pop-up food stall at The Rock's Lunar New Year markets. On offer throughout February, specials include an impossible beef noodle soup, a beer and soup combo, socks and t-shirts.

The Chinese hot and numbing Impossible beef noodle soup has been created by Butter Executive Chef Julia Cincotta and incorporates a vegetarian beef and broth that will satisfy both meat-eaters and vegos alike.

"I love Chinese noodle soups — in my humble opinion they are some of the tastiest in the world," Cincotta says. "We have always played with vegetarian broth each year for our ramens, however since we have started using Impossible Foods Beef, I have wanted to make a very special soup using this great plant-based product."

The soup is available on its own for $20 or with a Tiger beer for an extra $8.

When it comes to the merch, Butter has teamed up with all-female designers of colour Smile and Wave for a line of Year of the Tiger range of socks and t-shirts including a parody of the legendary hip-hop album Liquid Swords' album art. You can find purchase the collection from the Smile and Wave website from Thursday, February 3.

The Year of the Tiger menu items will be available from the butter pop-up until Sunday, February 13 or in-store at the restaurant's Surry Hills, Chatswood and Parramatta outposts until the end of the month.
