2025 brings the Year of the Snake, a symbol of charm, elegance and transformation.
To welcome the new zodiac, Hakkasan’s expert culinary team have created a limited edition Chinese New Year menu, designed to bring prosperity and fortune for the new year.
This exclusive menu is inspired by the charming serpent and includes dishes such as the fresh Snake fruit, persimmon and avocado salad, indulgent Golden “Yuan Bao” topped with caviar, delicate Chilean sea bass, rich Plum braised beef short ribs and Smoked duck breast with Chinese five-spice sauce. The Lucky red envelope dessert will follow, featuring a mango curry mousse refined with notes of cashew, passionfruit and sea salt caramel.
These dishes pair beautifully with our expertly-crafted Hennessy cocktails, including the exclusive Xiao Lóng, The Snake featuring Hennessy V.S.O.P, Campari, fiery Sichuan pepper and sweet strawberry. This unique creation symbolizes the mystical snake, representing prosperity and fortune.
Our signature X.O Old Fashioned has been elevated for the celebrations showcasing Hennessy X.O, kumquat saccharum, Peychaud Bitters. This smooth blend surrounds a bespoke snake print ice cube to make every toast unforgettable. All cocktails can be crafted with CleanCo zero-proof alcohol.
Our Year of the Snake menu is £98 per person and is available for parties of two or more guests. Alternatively, enjoy individual dishes à la carte.
Immerse yourself in the celebrations by writing your wishes for the year ahead on our delicately designed wishing ribbons and hang them on our golden, handcrafted wishing trees. Traditional lion dances will also be performed to bring prosperity and good fortune in the coming lunar year.
