Good to Know
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book?
Private dining is best reserved 2–4 weeks ahead, private events 4–8 weeks, to secure your preferred date and allow for menu design and sourcing.
What kitchen equipment is needed?
Only a standard home kitchen—stove, oven, and refrigeration. Novy brings her own tools, including her trusted stone mortar and pestle (cobek).
Who handles tableware and cleanup?
Full cleanup is always included. Novy leaves your kitchen immaculate, so you can stay present with your guests from first pour to last goodbye.
Can you cater for allergies and dietary restrictions?
Yes — menus are fully customisable with gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan and vegetarian versions that stay true to traditional Indonesian recipes. Please include allergies in your enquiry.
Do you travel outside Lantau for private dining events?
Yes — Chef Novy serves all of Hong Kong (Mui Wo, Discovery Bay, Tung Chung, Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, New Territories) and travels for destination private parties, retreats and events further afield.
