“We handle all parts of your cocktail party,” owner Noel Crist told Berkeleyside of Spicy Hideaway’s Chinatown location, which is closed for the holidays.
A “proper New Year’s Eve,” Crist said, “is when we take you out to a fun dinner at a nice neighborhood restaurant.”
Perfect for the first few hours of 2019, Spicy Hideaway serves a light, yet reasonably priced first course such as braised short ribs that’s seasoned with fresh, wild mushrooms.
The second course is a traditional Chinese New Year’s offering called scallion soup with red pepper vinaigrette served over steamed rice.
Pro tip: Spicy Hideaway’s takeout takeout party is not only fast — it’s heavily recommended because of the 20 cocktails Crist mentions before the crew settles down to a fitting meal. If you’re truly looking to impress a friend with your revelry, Crist said that his takeout-only restaurant has a couple of hot takeout spots that are always hopping — Jello Man, 112th Street and Bathulia, for example, that do a couple of two-hour pizzas on New Year’s Eve.
More of an extravaganza for the partygoing doyenne in the East Bay, Spicy Hideaway’s New Year’s Eve event is happening Friday, Dec. 28. And like anything else, there are some logistical and financial issues to consider. To be fair, Crist insisted, his New Year’s Eve event is “uncomfortable.”
“The only thing you can do is come in early and we will take over,” he said. “We will take over the drinks, appetizers, new gala table and a big party room.”
Spicy Hideaway has a real mission of celebrating Chinese New Year: “We are here to honor, thank and cherish our first year,” Crist said. “Hopefully in 2018 we’ll have another fruitful year.”
