Birds for Beirut

Overview

If you like your chook fried 'n' spicy or charred with loads of toum, here's an event for you. Belles Hot Chicken and Henrietta Charcoal Chicken are teaming up for Birds for Beirut: a finger-lickin'-good event to raise money for those impacted by the devastating Beirut explosion.

On Sunday, August 30 from 12–4pm, the two chicken specialists are serving the (socially distanced) masses a limited-edition menu at Henrietta's Surry Hills digs. Available for dine-in or takeaway, the Henrietta X Belle's Hot Chicken menu features a Lebanese twist on Belle's hot chicken burger and a plate with a quarter Lebanese-style charcoal chicken, Belle's fried chicken tenders, garlic toum, Belle's hot sauce and a side.

For dessert, Gelato Messina is setting up shop out the front on Crown Street, scooping up a Lebanese-inspired gelato. All funds from the chook and the gelato will be going to the Beirut Crisis Appeal through Aus Relief.

Henrietta is walk-ins only, but you can pre-order takeaway by heading over here.
