Overview
Fitzroy's Transformer has already carved out quite the reputation thanks to its plant-based menu; however the Rose Street restaurant isn't done tempting tastebuds yet. Ticking off two of the golden rules of eating — one, that everyone loves multiple courses; two, that culinary curiosity always wins out — they're hosting a Flavours of Korea vegetarian degustation dinner. Four courses of the kinds of pickled and fermented dishes you won't usually find on offer, coming up.
On August 22, patrons can sit down to smoked tofu with cabbage, watermelon radish, chrysanthemum greens and sesame; and then follow it up with pine nuts, fragrant rice, shitake, smoked egg yolk, nashi pear and toasted yuba — and they'll only be halfway through their meal.Lotus gochujang with black rice cakes and grilled cucumber helps round out the menu, alongside pecan brioche pancakes with honey, persimmon, koji and black sesame, as well as sides ranging from kolhrabi water kimchi to truffled sweet potato noodles.
Bookings will be taken for every half hour between 6pm and 8.30pm, with two price points available. Opt for the food-only feast for $75 per person, or add matched wines for $110. Whichever one you choose, your stomach wins.
