Lunar New Year 2024 at Hoba, entertainment programme

Alert friends, the Lunar New Year is approaching! You know, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Singaporean, Indonesian or Malaysian New Year! This year, we're heading to the HOBA spot to discover a whole program imagined by Adeline Gobin and Allison Petillo.

Originally from Vietnam, Adeline and Allison, pastry chef on one side and entrepreneur on the other, are collaborating with HOBA to offer us a lovely program. They share a passion for Asian cuisine and the traditions of their dual cultures, celebrating the Year of the Dragon by sharing and passing on their know-how.

A veritable mini-festival awaits you at the food market on February 10, 2024, exactly on the day of the Lunar New Year. Cooking classes, calligraphy, a photo exhibition and lively karaoke are all part of the festivities.
