Some of the biggest names in food, from Anthony Bourdain to Heston Blumenthal, have sung the praises of Melbourne’s food scene. Drawing on its history of migration from across the world, the best restaurants in Melbourne offer a diversity of flavors and traditions. Visitors looking for places to eat during a big night out will have their pick among elegant, fine-dining restaurants such as Vue de Monde and Attica, while the laneways hide gems like Spanish eatery Movida and Peruvian outpost Pastuso. Asian influences are a particular strong point in Melbourne, and spots like Chin Chin and HuTong Dumpling Bar are beloved by locals and visitors alike.
