The House of Food and Wine
The 2017 Melbourne Food and Wine Festival's hub of dinners, tastings and parties.
Overview
This year, the heart of all the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival action can be found at The House of Food and Wine, a laneway haunt decked out with lounge areas, dining rooms, and even a gallery space. Across all ten days of the festival, this little spot will play host to a lively program of sit-down dinner feasts, rollicking parties, and tasting sessions. Meanwhile, as artist-in-residence, designer-illustrator of Good Food Crap Drawing, Anna Vu, will be plating up a feast for the eyeballs, showcasing her food drawing style, and each day adding a new work inspired by the festival dishes she's eaten.
And of course, expect all kinds of culinary goodness from the on-site bar, which will open daily from midday until late. Here, chef Morgan McGlone (Belles Hot Chicken) will be dishing up a range of small plates that nod to some of the past festivals' food legends, while sommelier Mark Protheroe (The Recreation) has curated an all-Victorian wine list, including a couple of Patrick Sullivan low-intervention wines, crafted especially for this year's MFWF.
