Warabi's Sound Series
Enjoy a midweek omakase special flavoured with nostalgic R&B and hip hop tunes spun by DJ Prequel.
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.
