Year of the Snake Chinese New Year Dinners at Stanley

Overview

Enjoying a Cantonese meal with cracking river views at Stanley, the Howard Smith Wharves restaurant that pairs the two in fine style, is an all-year-round treat. That said, stopping by to celebrate Lunar New Year is obviously a must. And, to mark the Year of the Snake, Head Chef Louis Tikram is adding special dishes to the menu.

The sample menu includes mixed seafood and black truffle dumplings, giant Skull Island king prawns, an XO dish pairing the ocean's finest with crispy noodles, whole Queensland coral trout done Chongqing-style, Shandong chicken, five-spice roast duck, wagyu striploin in kung pao sauce, and truffle and spanner crab egg fried rice with caviar. Whatever ends up on offer, your tastebuds won't be disappointed based on how delicious Stanley's regular spread always proves.

The LNY specials will be available alongside the usual a la carte and banquet offerings, too, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds — as long as you make a date between Wednesday, January 29–Sunday, February 2, with seatings for lunch and dinner.

At 6.30pm and 8.30pm each evening, there'll also be lion dances. And before or afterwards, you can extend the fun upstairs at the new Stan's Lounge bar.
