$50 Date Nights at Marameo
This midweek special is perfect for you and your other half — or round up some mates for a table of four or six.
Overview
Italian mainstay Marameo has brought back its pasta-fuelled date night for you and yours. Every Wednesday night, expect an evening filled with candlelight, mood-setting tunes, half-litres of wine and a three-course menu to boot.
Set in the heart of Melbourne's CBD, Marameo boasts Italian dinner party vibes and features a stunning outdoor terrace. This is not a night at nonna's; instead, the menu puts a twist on traditional Italian fare.
The menu will change regularly based on seasonal availability, so you could easily make this a weekly go-to. For the launch, diners will start with house-made rosemary focaccia alongside a selection of salami, prosciutto and mortadella. For the main course, its baked cavatappi with Bolognese ragu and pecorino béchamel, paired with a garden salad topped with fennel and radish.
The evening wraps with dessert, which is currently zeppole dipped in chocolate sauce. For wine, simply choose from an Italian red or white, enough to share between two.
Since romance isn't just for lovebirds, Marameo is accepting reservations for tables of two, four or six. So you can grab your mates, dates or coworkers if you fancy, too.
