Overview

Listening bars are going off in Melbourne right now, including the likes of Waxflower, Music Room and Bahama Gold — while stacks of other drinking dens are giving that extra bit of love to the tunes played of an evening. 

W Melbourne's omakase joint Warabi is leaning into this trend throughout September, pairing its innovative multi-course seafood-focused feeds with old-school R&B and hip hop beats.

DJ Prequel is spinning the records every Thursday night while the chefs work behind him to craft each of the intricate bite-sized dishes. Warabi has also teamed up with gin brand Ki No Bi to provide a complimentary gin cocktail on arrival.

The evening will set you back a mean $195 per person, but that's in line with most of Melbourne's best omakase restaurants. If you're looking to treat yourself — or a food- and music-loving mate — this ain't a bad way to do it.
