The Golden Pig

Newstead

The Golden Pig is Brisbane’s holy grail of Pan Asian cuisine, found hidden away in a stunningly converted Newstead warehouse.

Located in the back streets alongside Breakfast Creek and a stone’s throw from Newstead House, The Golden Pig is aglow at night when it is filled with in-the-know foodies who travel from everywhere to dine on the exquisite world class cuisine.

For in the kitchen is the owner, eponymous Brisbane chef Katrina Ryan (ex-Rockpool Head Chef and Yandina Spirit House), and behind the gorgeous design of the dining space and bar is her husband Mark (building designer and ex-chef).

Step inside the door and behind the barred widows, you’ll find a jaw-droppingly beautiful industrial space with lounge bar, wall gardens and hanging pot plants, clusters of bare golden light bulbs, and a bustling open cage kitchen that resembles a workshop.

The menu is inspired by South East Asian and Chinese traditional dishes and given a whole new creative twist, fusing together the various cuisines and flavours to make for an absolute taste sensation.

Designed to share, on offer are Small, Medium and Large Bites with Sides to accompany as well as Dessert. Diners can also opt for the popular degustation-style banquet, which is Chef's selection of signature dishes suitable for tables of 2-20. As well as the classic banquet, there is also a choice of vegan/vegetarian and coeliac banquets.

Nice to know - Despite its brick and concrete warehouse setting, the acoustics are great, with noise softened by the plants and tables that are well-spaced out. Chef/owner Katrina also runs popular cooking classes in The Golden Pig kitchen.
