EAT > Reine & La Rue, Melbourne 18/20

With so many new restaurants opening in Melbourne in 2023 it might be easy to miss one. Especially one that is hidden behind the grand old ANZ bank but missing out on Reine & La Rue would be a mistake as this is amongst the best restaurants to open in Melbourne over the five years.…

EAT > Johnny Vince & Sam’s, Melbourne (10/20)

Any new Italian restaurant opening on Carlton's Lygon Street needs to have something special to be noticed. The premise for Johnny, Vince and Sam's restaurant is to capture the daggy cool of 60s and 70s vintage with some classic Italian dishes and there are aspects of this that are excellent, but on the day we…

EAT > Atria, Melbourne (15/20)

I am going to admit it. I have this built in bias about restaurants that sit on the top of towers featuring 'an amazing view'. I this comes from visiting a number of revolving restaurants around the Australia - such as 'The Summit', now 'O Dining' (at the top of Australia…

Saturday afternoon wandering the streets of South Melbourne looking for the right place to stop for lunch and a glass of wine, Bellota was fully booked and the South Melbourne Markets in full swing (which meant La Central Spanish Bodega was also out of the question).

EAT > Ishizuka (Melbourne)

It's not easy to find Ishizuka, there are few discreet signs near the street entrance, leading down a narrow lane, to a door and what looks like an apartment complex lift lobby. Take the lift to the basement and you are ushered into a very special room where you are elevated to one…
