Kitchens on Kent at The Langham, Sydney celebrates the auspicious arrival of the Year of the Rat with extravagant culinary festivities throughout January and February 2020.
Named Australia’s first ‘fining-dining meets luxury buffet’ restaurant, Kitchens on Kent is now one of the best buffets in the city and Sydney’s go-to place for any celebratory occasion or festivity, with Lunar New Year being no exception.
Traditionally, Lunar New Year is one of the most important Chinese festivals celebrated at the turn of the Lunisolar Calendar with celebrations in Sydney stepping up year after year.
After its grand opening in August 2019, Kitchens on Kent is a new addition to restaurants that celebrate Lunar New Year, and with new beginnings, The Langham, Sydney welcomes a new Executive Chef.
Australian-born Chef Stephen Lech is starting his new position off with a bang and ready to roll out his extravagant feast for this year’s festivities.
With eight kitchens to choose from and cuisines from across the globe, the Lunar New Year banquet will take on a strong Asian focus starting on Monday 20th January through to Sunday 2nd February.
The indulgent spread will delight all guests from the free-range suckling spit-roasted pig, unlimited house-made Peking duck pancakes, Bao buns with crispy pork belly to a variety of steamed dumplings and Dim sum. Or why not go for the Chinese egg fried rice and barramundi with coconut and bok choi.
Of course, this is all on top of the usual offerings from made-to-order pasta, stone-baked pizzas, sushi & sashmi, creamy Indian curries with fluffy, freshly made naan and a huge seafood selection.
For dessert, expect a stunning display with over twenty-five puddings, cakes and sweet delights. For Lunar New Year, The Langham, Sydney’s Head of Pastry, Chef Prashanth has created not only those desserts loved by Kitchens on Kent guests, but has brought China to Sydney with a traditional selection from Cantonese-style meringue tarts, Horseshoe cake, Coconut Milk cake to Mango pudding.
The experience will be enhanced as guests are encouraged to Experience. Indulge. Celebrate to welcome in the Year of the Rat. Traditional Chinese Red Envelopes will greet each customer and fortune cookies will complete the experience with a sneak insight to the year ahead.
Chef Lech is looking forward to the two-week celebration;
“Lunar New Year is one of the most important Chinese festivals in the calendar and I’m thrilled to be heading up the best celebratory restaurant in Sydney, where we have the capacity and excitement to celebrate this special time in the Lunisolar Calendar.”
