Best Restaurants In Victoria

Have you tried 'Boss Cocky's Cut' at Outback Jacks @ Knox? Fark me, the steak is on par with Meat and Wine Co. Try it - you will not be disappointed! I LOVE a god steak.

Yep it was very good steak there. The meals were a bit expensive for what they were, e.g. charging you extra for sauce wtf lol. But nice feed for sure.

*shudders*

Did you really just recommend them out loud??

DID YOU JUST HATE ON STONEGRILL??? Allow me to seperate that meal from the rest of the offerings at Paesanos...totally different things!

Oh yeah I forgot to add, Korean BBQ.

You order a plate of meat of your liking and you cook it yourself.

Nice and fun too.

But only place I know is in the city...

There's one in Box Hill I went to. It is fun. Ox tongue...was...interesting lol.

If you want a good steak go to the STEAK bank in Ormond on North Road.

they have steaks from 200g to 1.5kg. they have a big open butcher style counter where you pick your steak.. fckin fantastic.

the rocks on mornington pier, bit exy but worth it.

I love ox tongue, thinly sliced, they're awesome in hotpot, korean/japanese table bbq blahblahblah.

How's the hogsbreath in melbourne? I loved the one in singapore, but i'm unsure of the standard of food here...

[Phatboy]

If you eat out a lot what I strongly suggest you get is the entertainment book

Teh Entertainment Book

It's like $70 for a year's worth of food, movie, video rental fun coupons. Probably has $10 grand worth of coupons in there. Many of them are great eg., 2 for 1 main meals at classy restaurants, so the book is already making money for you after two restaurants. They also have Nandos, KFC, etc in there. And it's for a good cause.

You can buy it at any hospital/school/many local clubs etc.

[EKSMUD]

Try Nobu at crown or Fifteen in the city...

Yeah this was real thinly sliced. I tried and tried but couldn't get over the fact I was eating a tongue...not the part of the animal that was bothering me, but it made me think of chewing on my own tongue for some reason hahaha. The taste itself wasn't bad, just that mental barrier.

Hogsbreath is okay...I only really eat the parma there which is fairly good, haven't had a crap meal yet.

+1 this book is great. Have saved alot of money with the 2 for 1 meals.

so who's organising a cruise to one of the mentioned steak/burger joints?

[R31Nismoid]

So many silly suggestions far outside the $50-$60 p/h....

I've heard good things about Nobu, and actually, in Feb or was it Mar, when my family was here over the chinese new year, we had considered dining there, all 12 of us, but the restaurant was dim, it looks good, but not really condusive for a huge family to be having dinner at. It'd be good for a couple though, and since i favour japanese over a lot of other cuisines. The prices are phenominal though, so unless its a real huge occasion.

Lol, i bet you'd wipe them all out if you didn't know that was tongue.

But then again, if i wanted steak, i'd go down to queen victoria market to grab angus scotch for 28/kg and do it myself. No ambience though. But i'm not a fussy person.

[Phatboy]

We had the 8 course thing at Nobu. Can't say I'm very impressed for the price. It was decent, but nothing too special. The decor is interesting, if dim.

But then again, having eaten real japanese food in japan, and Tetsuya's in Sydney, I guess my expectations for expensive jap food might be higher.

[xALmoN]

Japanese food in melbourne is of pretty low standard generally.

The Nobu in hongkong is better, once again, hearsay.

[Do-Luck]

La Luna on Rathdowne St Carlton is another nice one I like to go to.

Hogsbreath originated from Australia dude. Queensland to be exact. The Singapore branch at Chijmes is nothing compared to the ones here So i'm sure you'll love the one in melb.

Awesome, yeah, the one at Chijmes.

Alright, will check it out soon =D

If budget isn't a problem, go try Vue De Monde in the city. If not, you can try out the newly opened Maze restaurant at Crown Metropol opened by Gordon Ramsey.

Went to Maze last night, it was phenomenal, the decor in that place is second to none and the food was incredible. They have these private boxes you can book out and have both a wine waiter and a food waiter all extremely knowledgeable on what to eat and drink with what and what ingredients have been used even down top the fine finish's. Rib eye steaks just fell apart on the plate it was that tender. Also had cop hoof balls that I woke up craving again this morning.

Soo good, but expense

lol @ Vue De Monde... why not send him to Attica while we're at it:)

for good Malaysian, hawker bar style, go Chinta Blue on Acland St just near corner of Fitzroy
