Chinese New Year, Year of PIG

We’re now planning our next celebration; Chinese New Year. Year of the Pig. This is celebrated not only in China and by Chinese communities throughout the world but also in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Singapore. As our pan-Asian restaurant serves at least one dish from each of those countries, we feel well qualified to celebrate too. The pig is the last of the zodiac animals and according to custom, overslept and arrived late to the great meeting that all the creatures were summoned to by the Jade Emperor. Traditionally it is associated with wealth, emotion and intuition. In true Coconut style, we’ll certainly mark the occasion with the celebration it deserves.

Staff Xmas Party

Following that fabulous night, a week later it was our turn to party. As we were a bit too busy over the Christmas period to celebrate together, our Christmas staff party took place in the new year. We were spoilt rotten by our very generous MD and had a wonderful evening in Malmaison. Obviously we couldn’t have it here in our restaurant. With everyone invited to the party, who would have cooked?

New Year’s Eve in COCONUT

New Year’s Eve at Coconut. You dressed, you impressed and we were very happy to do the rest.

Oh what a night! The confetti from those party canons is still falling from places we didn’t know Coconut Bar and Kitchen had places. The food, wine, beer and cocktails were all flowing and at midnight we offered you all a glass of bubbly to welcome in the New Year. The party was a thank you to everyone who visited our cocktail bar and restaurant over the past year. We truly are grateful to you all.

A Crazy Christmas at Coconut.

It certainly was! You turned up in your droves with friends and family over the Christmas period. We loved seeing you having such a great time and proud that you chose Coconut as a place to celebrate. We love a party.

Paul, our fabulous Kitchen Manager came up with the special set menu. It was a big hit, and without a trace of turkey, sprouts or Christmas pud in sight, everyone enjoyed the delicious Pan-Asian Christmas alternative and the glass of bubbles that came with it. 

It’s so lovely to receive reviews like this. ‘Excellent cocktails (best in Reading according to my wife). Excellent food and very friendly service. Will definitely visit again.’  

Thank you Nicce we look forward to seeing you again soon, there are plenty more cocktails for your wife to try. 

Employee of the month is Dinesh Thapa, King of Tempura. Well deserved too, both the King Prawn and Vegetable Tempura are sensational and never fail to please our guests. Also, in the kitchen, special congratulations to Hipolito who was promoted to Team Leader.
