Style Birmingham Magazine Review

[9 Feb 2010 | No Comment ]

February’s Style Birmingham magazine said, “We had an incredible evening at The Oriental Bar Restaurant; our food was above and beyond expectation and the service was flawless. Its fantastic atmosphere and menu make the restaurant a great choice for couples looking for somewhere different to eat on Valentines Day, or to celebrate Chinese New Year with some authentic cuisine.”

THE ORIENTAL TO CELEBRATE THE YEAR OF THE TIGER

[20 Jan 2010 | No Comment ]

The Oriental Bar and Restaurant in the Mailbox will be celebrating the Chinese New Year in February to herald the arrival of the Tiger.

According to the Chinese Zodiac, the Year of 2010 is the Year of the Tiger, which commences on February 14, 2010 and ends on February 2, 2011. The Tiger is the third sign in the Chinese Zodiac cycle, and it is a sign of bravery.

With Valentines Day on the same day, it will be a very busy time for the Oriental. So there wil be a special Chinese New Year menu from the week of the 14th onwards.

Get the best Japanese sake at the Oriental!

[8 Dec 2009 | No Comment ]

If you ever wanted to try decent sake, you would probably have to venture to celebrity hangouts such as Hakkasan, Zuma or Nobu. Now you can try the best in Japanese sake at the Oriental Bar and Restaurant at The Mailbox.  Owner Harish Nathwani has painstakingly researched the best quality sake for his us to enjoy.

“Five years ago, the quality of sake in Britain was not so high, so people have been put off, but we brought the best to Birmingham. Good sake can be as complex and subtle as vintage wine.”

Sake is made from large-grained rice (shinpaku-mai) and sweet spring water. Before brewing – sake is technically a beer than a rice wine.

As sushi bars and noodle canteens multiply, we will see more of Japan’s distinctive drink. It makes a refreshing change and I predict many more of us will be cheering “kampai!”
