A Festive Feast to Welcome the Year of the Snake
London is about to get a vibrant culinary upgrade, and it’s all thanks to the Chinese Cricket Club at Hyatt Regency London Blackfriars. Known for its modern take on traditional Chinese cuisine, this celebrated restaurant is pulling out all the stops for Chinese New Year 2025. From a limited-time Lunar New Year Set Menu to extended opening days, there’s no better way to celebrate the Year of the Snake in style.
Limited-Time Menus and Extended Hours
This year, the Chinese Cricket Club is making it easier than ever to indulge in their delectable offerings. The restaurant will open specially on Tuesday, 28th January, for lunch and Wednesday, 29th January, for an all-day service. With these additional dates, you have even more opportunities to gather with loved ones and savour the festive menu.
Available from 28th January to 2nd February 2025, the Lunar New Year Sharing Set Menu is priced at £78 per person. This curated menu offers a lavish spread of starters, sharing mains, desserts, and the restaurant’s iconic Smoked Peking Duck.
Lunar New Year Set Menu Highlights
The Smoked Peking Duck, crafted by Head Chef Tony Truong, takes centre stage on the menu. Presented with a dramatic flourish under a glass cloche, the duck emerges from a veil of aromatic smoke, tender and perfectly seasoned. Paired with hoisin sauce, cucumber, pineapple batons, and delicate pancakes, this dish is as much a visual delight as it is a culinary masterpiece.
Other highlights of the set menu include handmade dim sum and reimagined classics like Sweet and Sour Iberico Pork with tropical fruit and Wok-Fried Beef Fillet with Black Pepper Sauce, complemented by satay and garlic shoots. For a touch of indulgence, guests can add a glass of Moët & Chandon champagne for just £12.
