Taste of Japan at Barangaroo House

 

4-28 September 2025

 

This September, Barangaroo House transforms into a three-level celebration of Japanese flavours, culture and creativity, in partnership with Asahi and Nikka. Across House Bar, Rekōdo and Smoke, discover exclusive menus, pop-up collaborations and unique experiences.

House Bar

At House Bar, snack your way through the Konbini Counter - our homage to Japan’s iconic 7/11 convenience stores - with favourites like tamago egg sando, tuna onigiri and yakisoba-pan. Plus, try your luck with our special vending machine: buy two Asahis for a free turn to win Japanese snacks or merch.

Rekōdo

In Rekōdo, enjoy Ramen & Records (17–19 September) with a $20 ramen lunch pop-up from Rising Sun Workshop, served to a soundtrack of smooth Japanese jazz. Special month-long snacks will be on the menu all month include crispy fried tofu with gochujiang sauce and our yakitori with kosho romesco.

Smoke

Up in Smoke, we launch with a one-night-only party on 5 September featuring Perth’s Papi Katsu - bringing bold Japanese bites, cocktails and DJs. Then, don’t miss Nikka Decades “Share the Rare Hour” on Friday nights from 9–10pm, pouring one of only 100 bottles in Australia at breakeven prices, with optional karaage chicken & caviar pairing.
