Wine Bar Melbourne
“Andrew and I are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue in the tradition of operating a local neighbourhood butcher in Balwyn and we look forward to getting to know our new customers in the community," said Troy. This family-run restaurant has been serving elevated Italian food to locals for decades. Go for saffron tagliolini with spanner crab, eggplant parmigiana or 12-hour roasted lamb shoulder. Plus, exclusive wines from small Italian producers that you’ll only find here.
Because in Balwyn North, when we celebrate, we do it with style, class, and a glass of the finest bubbly. South Melbourne icon St Ali was also one of the first on-ground in Melbourne’s specialist wine shop specialty coffee boom, and it’s been perfecting its wares ever since. A grungy converted warehouse is the stage for its cheffy brunches, laid-back service and exceptional brews.
Owners Alex Booth and Rainer Patterson foster an atmosphere like that of a nonna’s dining room. A red Vespa greets you out the front, referencing Il Postino , the Italian movie the restaurant was named after. Balwyn North, a residential suburb, is 10 km east of central Melbourne. It is separated from Balwyn by Belmore Road and extends northwards to the Eastern Freeway in the Kooning Creek valley.

In Singapore's New Bahru, Bar Bon Funk is another fine example of thoughtful hospitality design by Nice Projects, the team serious about creating special environments that are light hearted with big personalities. Brass details are continued throughout the bar design, while the flooring is laid with Artorato Cotton handmade Italian clay tiles. The atmosphere was beautiful, the cocktails were amazing, and the food was delicious. The staff were lovely, and the fairy-lit garden made it feel so special.

A Parisian-style backstreet wine bar that champions European cooking and refuses to sway to the trends. It’ll take you right through the day, from your morning espresso to evening aperitivo. Sustainability, simplicity and even transportability are the guiding principles of this singular community cafe. It’s set within a recycled shipping container, and surrounded by an abundant kitchen garden that informs the no-rules menu.
I would say with a couple of glasses, or a bottle of wine it’s about $100 a head or a little more if you’re ordering with gay abandon . Kew/Balwyn locals will know the name immediately as the beautifully independent wine store and grocer next door, Boccaccio Cellars. The D’Anna family have owned the store there for over 60 years, that’s 60 years of Italian food wisdom, wine knowledge and international relationship building to bring the best produce from around the world here.
