Special cuts and special w**es ❤️❤️

What do you do when your mate takes over a country pub in the far north-east of Victoria? Get him to source the best hidden Wagyu from the region, naturally.

This 800g Yalandra Spanish Cut Ribeye MBS 5+ is on special tonight and an incredible find by Dale Kemp

Full-Blood Wagyu from a family-run stud farm that creates its own bloodlines and breeding herd in the Mitta Valley. Aged for 70 days by us to add even more depth, this is 3YO beef that’s grass fed and finished but still limousine rich and luxurious.

And if you’re up that way, make sure you drop in a pint and a feed … cover our finders fee … and say thanks to Dale at the excellent Yackandandah Hotel

Fresh cuts in the dry-ageing cabinet this week. Some familiar, some to be discovered. And some never seen in a Melbourne restaurant before. It’s all part of our commitment to shining a light on local heroes and smaller, artisanal producers.

Just watch this space for what’s to come.

There’s so many elements that go into the construction of our cult dry-aged burger … we’re going to need a montage to show it.

The sourcing and ageing of Txuleta 1882 heritage beef for the 200g pink patty, the ramarrofarm pickles, the double layer of caramelised and tempura onions, the Ford Farm Cheese aged cheddar and of course that rich moat of native pepper sauce around the bun that delights and confuses in equal measure.

Only 15 available at lunch each day - Tue to Sat.

We’ve waited 40 days and 40 nights for this biblical special cut.

Full-blood Robbins Island Wagyu rib eye sets have been ageing gracefully wrapped in tallow in our dry-ageing cabinet and are now ready for their big reveal.

Thick-cut 800g buttery, lush, jaw-dropping steaks on the board heading into the weekend. These don’t hang around once released, so don’t miss out.

Let the meat week begin.

The Americans might have left town, but we’ve still got a strong lineup of steaks, special cuts, sharp cocktails and unique premium pours in place and ready to make this week one to remember too.

Monumental day in Melbourne with the first NFL regular season game in Oz. And we’ve got our very own American running back Garrett Fisher - rushing plenty of yards tonight, with his always excellent suggestions of Coravin pours, reserve w**es and top local drops. Don’t miss the post-game Garrett show. Hut hut hut!

Our special cuts this fine Wednesday evening are led by a stunning Robbins Island Wagyu 9+ T-Bone.

Full-blood mustering magnificence from Tassie, this is some of the best premium beef out there with the animals’ grain diet mirroring their local habitat, kelp extract and all.

September lunch hits the dance floor tomorrow. Don’t fret, that dry-aged burger and our 7+ Wagyu rump steak frites are unshakeable.

Our $55pp Express Meat runs Tuesday to Saturday, 12pm-3pm, with your choice of starter and main plus good things on the side.

Our dry-aged burger is available in limited numbers each day until it’s sold out.

Just swipe left for the menu.
