Chinese New Year 2011 Banquet - Han Palace Perth

A Chinese banquet is a must have every Chinese New Year. Even in Perth the Chinese Restaurants capitalise on this. Most restaurants will not have a la Carte menu and only serve banquets at $499 to $999 a table, some even charge more.

This year our Chinese New Year banquet was at Han Palace, a high end Chinese Restaurant on Bennett Street, East Perth. In all honesty, we overindulged as usual. There was plenty of food left at the end of the night.
