The new year at Oriental Teahouse is coming in hot with a six-course dinner matched with a variety of hot sauces in honour of World Hot Sauce Day, taking place on Tuesday 22 January.

We are teaming up with everyone’s favourite hot sauce maker, Melbourne Hot Sauce Company, to put tastebuds to the test and tongues through some serious heat.

​There will also be unlimited beer from Mountain Goat to cool the senses between courses. Zhou Zhou bar will have Goat Lager on tap available anytime for diners, whereas Oriental Teahouse in the city will have an endless supply of Summer ale tinnies doing the rounds.

The intimate affair will be hosted at our South Yarra bar upstairs Zhou Zhou, and also at the CBD store on Lt. Collins Street where diners will sit at large communal tables. Spice up your night with mates and discover the optimal hot sauce to dumpling ratio as each course is brought 

For $65 per person, hot sauce and yum cha lovers alike can expect the following:
BBQ pork bun (1) matched with Chipotle BBQ
Ginger prawn dumplings (2) with Harbanero Roja
 Roast duck spring rolls (2) with Hop Smoked Jalapeno
 China fried chicken ribs (2) with  Habanero & Mango
Pork and chives dumplings (2) with Smoked Jalapeno
 Wagyu beef dumplings (2) with Bhut Jolokia
