Taste of Asia

Overview

Wish you could be taste-testing your way around Asia this spring? Well, this October, renowned Singaporean chef and author Tony Khoo is coming to town — and he'll be whipping up a seafood feast.

Taking over PARKROYAL Parramatta's sleek, retro-inspired hotel restaurant, Table 30, the corporate executive chef of Pan Pacific Hotels Group will be bringing a bit of Singapore to Sydney. Head on down from Tuesday, October 15 to Sunday, October 20, and you'll find a huge Asian-influenced seafood buffet, available from 6–9pm, Monday through Saturday, and from 12–3pm on the Sunday. For just 79 clams, you'll be eating all the chilli crab and fresh fish your heart desires.

To start, you'll be treated to a selection of seafood platters, including mirin- and sake-cured ocean trout and steamed mussels in a coconut and lime dressing. Then,  move onto dishes like baked sambal fish and, of course, chilli crab. There'll also be a salad bar with barbecue pork noodle salad and mizuna with fennel capsicum. For dessert, you can pick between mango cheesecake, Chinese custard tarts and coconut mousse — or grab all three. And that's just the beginning, with Khoo's Taste of Asia offering three varying menus across the six days.

Looking to extend your night of indulgence? You can book yourself into the hotel with the Love That Club package for a luxe staycation. For $249 per night, expect complimentary sparkling wine and chocolate truffles on arrival, drinks and canapes at happy hour, plus breakfast the next morning. Or, hit up western Sydney's huge food fair, Parramatta Lanes, by day then swing by Table 30 to keep the good times rolling.
