Overview

Held at The Bob Hawke Beer & Leisure Centre, Lucky Prawn's monthly yum cha sessions are already pretty special. But if you're celebrating Mardi Gras this year, you might be interested to learn it's undergoing a fabulous twist. Transforming into Mardi Cha for two sessions only, the divine Jackie Daniels and pals will give this occasion a vivacious lift.

The first of these sessions happens on Saturday afternoon at the height of Mardi Gras fever, serving as the ultimate pre-game feast for what's bound to be a big night. However, if you've got other plans for the festival's parade, perhaps a laidback Sunday sesh is more your vibe.

This recovery Mardi Cha comes with $12 Bloody Marys and a vinyl DJ keeping the mood pleasantly light, with lo-fi tunes from 4pm till late. As Daniels and her troupe roam the space, serving cocktails and ice-cold tinnies from a squeaky trolley, you'll be dining on prawn crackers, pork dim sims, steamed pork buns, scallop wontons and more.
