Overview
Things have already been heating up in the kitchen at Prahran's Firebird this year, with celebrated Sunda alum Nabil Ansari joining the crew as Head Chef. But they're about to get even more fiery during Melbourne Food & Wine Festival when this rising-star chef hosts a two-night dinner series dedicated to the Southeast Asian and Indian flavours of his heritage.
Held across three nightly sittings (5.45pm, 7pm, 8.15pm) from Monday, March 27–Tuesday, March 28, the six-course feasts will make a hero of Firebird's famed custom wood-fired grill.
Brought to life over charcoal and showcasing a clever mix of flavours, the menu's set to feature punchy plates like duck samosas paired with a medjool date chutney, smoked scallops done with salmon roe and yellow coconut curry, and a slow-cooked lamb clay pot biryani.
Tickets to Ansari's dinner come in at $150, which also gets you a cocktail on arrival. Firebird's usual drinks list will be available if you fancy adding on any further bevs, too.
