Smoke and Mirrors
Chin Chin has teamed up with designer Frida Las Vegas for its next over-the-top 80s-style immersive dining experience.
Overview
Ever wished you were around for — or wanted to return to — the 80s boss board room style of power suits, shoulder pads and three-martini lunches? Chin Chin is aiming to do just that this June. The always-busy Surry Hills eatery is joining forces with Sydney-based fashion designer Frida Las Vegas (aka Stavroula Adameitis) for its next immersive dining experience, dubbed Smoke and Mirrors.
Chin Chin's basement event space will be dolled up with Frida Las Vegas' neon and acrylic artwork, along with decadent furniture and interiors. The Sydney-based pop artist and avant-garde fashion designer has been commissioned by the likes of Katy Perry and Client Liaison, so you can expect some serious statement pieces in tow.
Alongside this bright and punchy remodelling will be a special menu featuring some of Frida's favourite dishes and cocktails. Those include an apple jelly pavlova with minted dragon fruit, whipped rose cream, fairy floss and popping candy, and an absinthe and melon martini. You can go a la carte or do the Frida Me set menu which, for $69.50 per person, gets you the lot. It's the same price as Chin Chin's regular set menu, so it could be a good chance to try something new if you've done it a few times already.
The Smoke and Mirrors menu will be available every Wednesday through Saturday from 5pm between June 12–29. Bookings are crucial, so get on it over here. It follows Chin Chin's last immersive art and culinary experience, Hyper Real, which just took place in April. You can expect to see more of this sort in the coming months, so keep an eye out.
