Experience Melbourne's mix of cultures in its myriad restaurants, cafes, bistros and bars. Whether you're after modern, traditional, exotic or homespun flavours – Melbourne's eclectic dining scene offers a startling array of the world's great cuisines, from popular favourites to the truly groundbreaking.
#1 Fitzroy Town Hall Hotel
Treat the bar of the laidback Fitzroy eatery like it's your local, then swan into the dining room to feast on perfectly executed seasonal fare with European flavours. You're bound to find the environment that suits you in the range of rooms at the Town Hall, from the casual bar to the cosy dining rooms, and the rustic private dining area in the cellar.
#2 Hutong Dumpling House
Famous for perhaps the most delicious dumplings outside China, HuTong may be spread across three levels, but book ahead because demand is high and the food is so good you'll want to linger. Scalding xiao long bao meat and soup dumplings are the specialty but there are dishes in Shanghai and Szechuan styles too.
#3 Chin Chin
This Thai diner has a cool but unfussy vibe. The menu is mostly sharable and you can order wine by the carafe from the 'Wine Guy'. Crispy school prawns and suckling pig pancakes make great lazy afternoon drinking food.
#4 Ponyfish Island
Beneath the pedestrian bridge over the Yarra to Southbank you'll find a pop-up oasis of beer, coffee and tasty toasties. Clinging to the pylon, and decorated with old rope, this bar almost looks like it could be seaworthy. When the sun is shining there's no better place to be than on the island.
#5 The Town Mouse
Like a little mouse you'll be scurrying to scavenge the crumbs of the rich, delectable dishes on offer at The Town Mouse; dishes that are taken to even greater heights when matched with wines from the well-considered wine list.
#6 Ezard
Ezard combines east and west with verve and creativity. With themes borrowed from Japan, China and India, all re-imagined by Chef Teage Ezard, this is a must-try experience for any self-respecting gourmand.
#7 Siglo
Siglo is found through the unmarked door of the Melbourne Supper Club and up the grand staircase.At the top of the stairs, beautiful wines, international beers and late-night snacks await – all with table service and views of the floodlit Parliament House and Melbourne's gorgeous Princess Theatre.
#8 Bomba
Brought to you by the Añada crew, Bomba is all about Spanish food for the working classes. Simple, affordable Spanish tapas and a bar so well stocked with vermouth you'll have to stay for a cocktail at the rooftop bar. With a commitment to local, fresh and seasonal ingredients, there's plenty of bang for your buck here.
#9 Vue de monde
