UPDATE: TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24 — The screening of Crazy Rich Asians has been cancelled.

Located within the Chinese Gardens of Friendship, The Gardens by Lotus is one of Sydney's most picturesque dining experiences. The heritage-listed teahouse serves up dumplings, dim sum, fried chilli mud crab and, of course, tea, while surrounded by the lush green gardens.

Over the next two weekends, you can enjoy two well-loved flicks alongside the dumplings and scenery, too. At 7pm on Saturday, February 20, The Gardens is showing critically acclaimed family drama The Farewell, while on the following Saturday you can catch the immensely popular romantic comedy Crazy Rich Asians.

Included in the $70 ticket price is: spot on a beanbag in front of the screen; a feast of dumplings, salt and pepper chicken and vegetable fried rice feast; and a $5 voucher to spend on a beer, wine or cider of your choice. Plus, because it wouldn't be a movie night without popcorn, the Lotus team is creating its very own szechuan popcorn for the night.
