Because Lunar New Year calls for parties, potato and truffle spring rolls, and bottomless lychee spritzes.

Overview

As one of Brisbane's go-to spots for modern Chinese cuisine, Little Valley was always going to get into the Lunar New Year spirit. The Fortitude Valley restaurant isn't just throwing a party, though. It's throwing three — as part of a fortnight-long Chinese New Year Festival.

You've been to a New Year's Eve shindig — now head along to a Chinese New Year's Eve shindig. That's what's on the agenda on Friday, January 24. Then, on Saturday, January 25, it's time for a New Year's Day party. Both events will feature colourful and lively lion dances at 8pm. It wouldn't be some Lunar New Year fun without them.

Plus, on Saturday, February 1, the Warner Street spot will wrap things up with a Chinese New Year Closing Ceremony. Kicking off at 5pm, it'll involve DJs and live entertainment, too.

As for the food and booze side of things, it's available for the whole festival period between Tuesday, January 21–Saturday, February 1. Eat your way through an $85 banquet, with potato and truffle spring rolls, lobster and chive har gow, xinjiang spiced pastrami and drunken chicken among the 11-dish menu. You'll want to head by on a Friday or Saturday, though, to add two hours of prosecco, selected tap beers and lychee spritzes for an extra $39.
