Best Restaurants in Melbourne.
Good food for a good city, here are Melbourne’s best restaurants:
To start your food tour in Melbourne, visit the Queen Victoria Market, or Vic Market. The market has been around since 1978 and has a little bit of everything: fruits, vegetables, handicrafts and even clothes, but the most delicious part is the area with delicatessens that sells olives, cheeses, ham, pâtés, cakes, biscuits, juices.
Perfectly set into the chic surroundings of Flinders Lane, the new Grill Americano is the eloquent bar and diner from Chris Lucas. Inside leather booth seating and an expansive marble bar lead your eyes down to the end of the diner which has been purposefully curated to affect a very New York and Northern Italian- inspired bistro aesthetic.
Italian cuisine is very popular in the city. Brunetti, a must-see in Melbourne. Brunetti is located on Lygon Street, a street full of Italian restaurants, and works as a restaurant, cafeteria and pastry shop. It is huge, has an impressive amount of sweets, as well as pasta and ice cream. If you like sweets, the place is doomed.
The most recent addition to Andrew McConnell’s empire Gimlet at Cavendish House is like stepping back into a bygone era. Sitting in the middle of the CBD on Russell Street, the charmful space has a classical art-deco fit with marble tiles, stained wood, and booth dining, harkening back to the early twentieth-century eateries of New York and Paris.
Melbourne is a modern and multicultural city, but its British origins are still latent in the daily lives of the locals! For breakfast, or afternoon tea, so loved by the British, stop by the Hopetoun Tea Rooms. The establishment mesmerizes passersby, such beauty of its window; the sweets and cakes are so beautiful that cause indecision when choosing.
Hope you have a good food tour!
