Overview

If you're after an auspicious start to the Year of the Tiger, South Yarra's Yugen Tea Bar has it covered. The modern tea apothecary is celebrating the Lunar New Year with a sumptuous banquet, themed around the lucky number eight — so the evening will be brimming with good food and good luck.

On Tuesday, February 1, you're invited to mark the occasion at one of three dinner sittings (5pm, 7pm and 9pm), tucking into a parade of eight different dishes for $88 per person. On the menu, expect plates like crispy wontons with soy bean, ginger and chilli; a 'yee sang' (Cantonese-style raw fish salad) finished with crispy taro and a plum dressing; Sichuan-style marinated cucumbers; and char siu pork neck served with steamed buns, pickles, herbs and condiments.

To up the indulgence factor, there's also a sashimi platter available to add on ($186 for two, $368 for four), featuring ocean-fresh goodies like oysters, caviar, ocean trout, kingfish and Hokkaido scallops.

One of the evening's guests will be extra lucky, too, walking away with a special prize from the Yugen Tea Bar team.
