Orthodox Easter @ Yugo Bar & Grill

This year, on April 16, the Orthodox world celebrates Easter!

The different date for Orthodox Easter comes from following the Julian calendar, which differs from the Gregorian calendar used by most Western countries and Christian denominations.

Since they could not celebrate it last year, Yugo are very happy to continue the tradition and organize a family and friends day Easter celebration… and everyone is invited!

Expect a nice and chilled afternoon with lots of food and drink. A special Easter set menu will be available and free flow options on house drinks.

As you might know, Easter egg decorating is one of the traditions their people truly love and pay great attention to. In the past the eggs were colored and decorated on Holy Thursday, but nowadays this is usually done on Good Friday.

They will choose the the most beautiful egg of Yugo Easter 2023, so come with a few eggs of your own design and see which one is the most beautiful. The winner will get an RMB300 voucher!

Yugo will also organize an egg battle – it’s called Easter egg war or egg tapping. In an Easter egg war, the winner is the person whose egg doesn’t crack, with the winner of each battle getting to keep the opponents egg as a prize.

The final winner will also receive a bottle of Vinjak and a title of First Yaye. The egg tapping tradition is something all the kids love and so do the grownups!

So, bring your own egg or use one of Yugo’s, and let’s see what happens. Keep in mind though, that the judges will make you eat your egg at the end so as to prove that it’s a real one.

Service starts at 12 midday!

Sun Apr 16, from 12pm.
