Vietnamese New Year at Ngon
Celebrate Vietnamese New Year on Given Terrace with a night of feasting — there'll be prawn tapioca dumplings, slow-cooked pork, XO fried rice and more on offer.
Overview
Vietnamese New Year is upon us for 2025 and, as it does every year, Paddington's Ngon is celebrating. When you're a family-owned neighbourhood Vietnamese eatery that goes big on traditional flavours, but with a fresh twist, this occasion is always going to be a big event — and it clearly is for the Nguyen brothers.
This round of festivities focuses on a night of feasting on Saturday, February 1 — aka reason enough to eat, drink and be merry on Given Terrace. Make a date for dinner for the evening and you'll firmly be in New Year's mode.
Costing $85, the food menu goes big on family favourites, as the restaurant's cuisine does anyway. So, get ready to tuck into prawn tapioca dumplings, slow-cooked pork, XO fried rice, bo luc lac, ginger chicken and more.
Bookings are necessary, and calling or emailing is recommended. The night starts with arrivals at 6pm, with dinner beginning at 6.30pm and lion dances from 8pm.
