About The Kitchen

Inside the Cabramatta Hotel, The Kitchen pairs the relaxed hum of counter beer taps with regional Lao, Thai, and Vietnamese cooking. Dedicated chefs run each regional station, turning out grilled ox tongue, Crying Tiger beef, and steamed barramundi for sprawling group tables. Pub classics like char-grilled rump steak share the floor with shaved ice melon bingsu and house-made fried ice cream wrapped in crisp filo pastry.

  • Dedicated regional culinary stations: Specialist chefs cook across dedicated stations for Thai, Lao, and Vietnamese dishes.
  • Communal group feasts: Spacious tables seat large groups sharing seafood, wok noodles, and pub steaks alongside bar taps.
  • Filo-wrapped fried ice cream: House-made fried ice cream served in a crisp filo pastry wrap instead of standard thick batter.
