Made By Sea Tour

Overview

If you're going to treat yo'self to some high-flying fare like lobster, you might as well go all out, right? Well, Melbourne's luxe seafood restaurant Pinchy's is dialling up the indulgence levels and bringing back one of its most OTT dishes: Australia's biggest lobster roll.

This time, though, as Melburnians are limited to visiting restaurants within five kilometres of their homes under the stage four lockdown, the giant crustacean roll is heading on a five-week tour of Melbourne, hitting up a different suburb every Friday and Saturday.

Called Made By Sea Tour, it'll land at The Old Garage in Camberwell on August 21–22, then Bentleigh's Wolfe & Molone on August 28–29, followed by Mr Jackson in Mornington and Windsor's Oppen Cafe on September 4–5 and 11–12 respectively. The tour's final hurrah will go down at Johnny's Emporium in Yarraville on September 18–19. You can check out the exact times and locations below.

While the super-sized version of Pinchy's signature Maine to Melbourne lobster roll — rocking three times as much crustacean as the original, stuffed into a foot-long bun — will be the menu highlight (and most expensive item at $40), it won't be the only dish heading on tour. You'll also be able to snag a classic lobster roll ($22), crab tacos ($7), truffle fries ($10), mussel chowder ($14) and snapper croquettes ($10).

To get your mitts on a big lobster roll — or anything on the menu for that matter — you must pre-order over at the website. And you'll need to move quick as some dates are already starting to sell out.
